The IASB Resolutions Committee will meet on Friday, August 2 in Bloomington to discuss proposals submitted by member districts. The Resolutions Committee meeting is part of the process that will culminate in the annual Delegate Assembly, where all IASB member boards have an opportunity to vote on resolutions submitted by districts.
This year, 13 resolutions were submitted by members on topics relating to student cellphone use in schools, Faith’s Law and employment history checks, TIFs, Election Day and schools as polling places, dual language, and more.
The Resolutions Committee, representing the Association membership by Division, consults with the boards of education that crafted and submitted resolutions, deliberates on each proposal, and makes recommendations on each measure. Once the committee has completed its recommendations, the next step in the process is a Resolutions Committee Report that will be distributed to each member district and posted on the IASB website. This report provides a summary and the Committee’s voting rationale on each measure to assist districts when deciding how to vote on the respective resolutions.
The district proposals will be voted on at the 2024 Delegate Assembly taking place on November 23 in conjunction with the Joint Annual Conference in Chicago.
Resolutions and amendments to current Position Statements adopted by the IASB Delegate Assembly provide major policies for the Association and establish its stance on legislation and related matters of public policy. Further information on the Resolutions Process is available on the IASB website.
