Background:
At its June 2017 meeting, the Board referred Resolution 1718R-002 regarding limited-term employees (LTEs) to the Committee on Legislation, Rules and Policies.

In August 2017, the Board took action to adopt the resolution, which directed revisions to Administrative Policy 6.37, Limited-Term Employment Positions.

The Administration and Office of Accountability and Efficiency collaborated to make adjustments to Administrative Policy 6.37 consistent with the Board's action.

Additional changes have been made to reflect current practice in the utilization of LTEs, and achieve greater efficiencies as to the manner in which they are brought before the Milwaukee Board of School Directors for approval.

For consistency of language and alignment purposes, revisions to Administrative Policy 6.23, Recruitment and Hiring: Staff, and Administrative Procedure 6.23(6), Filling Limited-Term Employment Positions are also necessary.
 
Fiscal Impact Statement:
This item does not authorize expenditures.  
Implementation and Assessment Plan:
Upon approval by the Board, the Office of Board Governance will make and publish the necessary revisions.  
Recommendation
