Notice to District Families Regarding Model Policies for Discipline of Students Who Make Threats of Violence or Cause Incidents of Violence Introduction The 2023 Iowa Acts, chapter 96 (House File 604), signed by Governor Reynolds on May 26, 2023, requires the Iowa Department of Education to develop and distribute a model policy for school districts and charter schools that, if adopted, satisfies a school district's or charter school’s responsibilities under Iowa Code 279.79 established by the Act. These model policies are intended to support a school district and charter school in meeting the requirements of new Iowa Code section 279.79 and in developing policies for different grade levels that describe how a school district or charter school may discipline a student for making a threat of violence or causing an incident of violence that results in injury or property damage or assault. The link to the versions of the policies were approved by the Belmond Klemme Board of Education during the October 19, 2023 board meeting. https://www.bkcsd.org/article/1301070
