BOARD APPROVALParental Involvement Policy - SASA Answers to Policy Questions Related to
the Approval of Parental Involvement Policies • Merely because the Title I statute uses the word "policy" in the context of
parent involvement does not determine whether a district's parent involvement "policy" must be reviewed by a local school board. Whether such a "policy" must be reviewed is a local decision informed by the content of the document. Section 1118(a)(2) of Title I describes what a Title I parent involvement policy must include. If these are not the types of matters that a school board would normally review, the mere fact that the statute uses the word "policy" should not be determinate. From our perspective, a district may attach whatever label it likes to the document describing parent involvement opportunities. It must be in writing, however, and must be agreed to by parents of participating children. Further, a district must be able to implement its "policies" through whatever review and clearance process the district requires.
