You will select and analyze one local (district or school-level) policy issue that you believe
needs to be changed, added, or deleted from official board policy. Describe the policy issue and
its implications on the school setting. Use resources such as student handbooks, school and
district websites, the school board policy manual, or interviews with school/district personnel.
You must then develop a PowerPoint presentation as if you were going to present the issue at a
local school board meeting.
Include the following in your presentation:
• Why is this new policy or change of policy needed?
• What effect can the policy have on the school(s)?
• How are other schools/districts addressing this issue?
• What are the potential effects of the policy being implemented, not implemented, or
changed?
Your presentation must contain 16–18 slides (not including the title and references slide) and at
least five references in current APA format, with all references listed on the last slide. Provide a
clear, coherent introduction for your presentation. Your presentation should be arranged and laid
out to convey your message clearly. Your main points should have a clear, logical flow and be
both informative and persuasive.
