In plain English
What this document actually says
This administrative regulation, last reviewed in August 2022, establishes how Reed Union School District handles surplus (unused) school property. It creates an advisory committee of 7-11 community members representing different groups—parents, teachers, business owners, renters/landowners, and experts in environmental and legal matters. The committee reviews enrollment data to identify surplus space, creates a priority list for how to use it, holds public hearings, and recommends to the Board whether to sell or lease the property. The policy ensures community input before any district property is sold or leased, including for potential childcare facilities. The committee must represent the district's ethnic, age, and socioeconomic diversity and include neighborhood voices in decisions about unused school buildings or land.
What this means for your family
This policy gives parents a voice when the district considers selling or leasing unused school buildings or land. A parent representative serves on the advisory committee that reviews these decisions. If your child's school has surplus space, this process ensures community input on how it's used—potentially for childcare, community programs, or other purposes. The policy protects against closed-door property deals by requiring public hearings and diverse community representation before any sale or lease.
