Derek,
I apologize for the delay; I was out of town. The E-911 Board contribution that has already been approved to spend is,
$22,408.07. Also, for reference, I will attach the org quote for equipment migration which the board was going to absorb
the cost. If I can be of any more assistance, please let me know.
Have a great day,

Mr. Mullins,
HCMS has a classroom set of 13 Lyons guitars that we purchased from CIS in
2022. We used them for our Summer Learning Program (Zach Bentley taught the
class), but we haven't used them since that time. They are currently taking up valuable
space in our Band Room that our band teacher would like to utilize.
I'm reaching out to ask if it would be ok to sell them either as a fundraiser or to another
school (not necessarily in our district). I'd like to get the word out through Facebook
Marketplace to see if a school would be interested if this is permissible.
If a set was purchased today, the cost of 10 guitars would be approximately $699.99
(see attachment). We would like to sell them for $30-$35 each.
Thank you in advance for your guidance.

To: School Board Members
From: Misty Shelton
Date: July 2025
Up for 1st Reading: Additions to the policies are highlighted in vellow. Deletions are struck through
Policy 1.1021 - Student Board Member (HCSS policy number 1.206 Student Board
Representative)
Public Chapter 359 requires Boards that operate at least one high school to adopt a policy
authorizing a student board member. Boards that already have policies on student board members
or student advisory groups may maintain the current language. TSBA said the current policy 1.206
meets the criteria.
Policy 1.407 - School District Records
Previously, state law permitted individuals to submit a records request via fax. Public Chapter 94
removes this option.
1.700- School District Goals and 5.100- Personnel Goals
TSBA has received questions from districts about Public Chapter 494 and how it impacts Boards.
This new state law removes the requirement for educator diversity goals. Further, it prohibits districts
from making hiring decisions on metrics other than merit. Additionally, the State Board of Education
recently deleted the requirement for local Boards to maintain a policy on this topic. Roughly half of
Boards maintain policy language that would need to be revised. Based on this, they recommend that
Boards review policies that may contain language on this topic along with any other relevant
documents.
1.901 Charter School Applications
We are recommending changes to several charter school policies based on Public Chapter 275. This
new law shifts certain responsibilities to the State Board of Education and the TN Public Charter
Schools Commission. Additionally, there is a new requirement that Boards report all charter
applications received to the TN Public Charter Schools Commission.
Policy 2.403 - Surplus Property Sales
In the past, federal regulations required that certain actions be taken when property valued at $5,000
or below was disposed of. This limit has been increased to $10,000. Additionally. Public Chapter 500
includes new criteria for posting notices on news and information websites. This new law clarifies
that the website is not intended to be the same newspaper of general circulation utilized for the
printed publication.

Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. All necessary accommodations are made for equitable participation by constituents without regard to race, gender,
disability, economic status, or special needs as required by Section 427 of the General Education Provision Act & P.L. 107-110-NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND.

Policy 3.202 - Emergency Preparedness Plans
Public Chapter 315 clarifies that no more than two fire drills are required to occur within the first thirty
full school days.
Policy 3.204 - Threat Assessment Team
There are new reporting requirements regarding threats and significantly disruptive behavior. A
report must be made to parents/guardians within forty-eight hours of the district reporting to law
enforcement. Additionally, there must be a quarterly report of incidents provided at board meetings.
Policy 4.100 - Instructional Program
Policy 5.500 - Discrimination/Harassment of Employees
Policy 6.304 - Student Discrimination, Harassment, Bullying, Cyber-bullying. and Intimidation
Public Chapter 293 requires Boards to include the definition of antisemitism in anti-discrimination
policies. The full definition is included in the updated version of policy 4.100, and policies 5.500 and
6.304 have been updated to refer to that definition.
Policy 4.212 - Virtual Education Program
Public Chapter 484 permits districts to use hybrid learning in the event of dangerous or extreme
weather or in an emergency, as determined by the Director of Schools. If a district uses hybrid
learning, the Board must have a policy in place regarding student attendance.
Policy 4.301 - Interscholastic Athletics
Students attending virtual schools will now be permitted to participate in interscholastic athletics in
accordance with TSSAA or TMSAA guidelines. If a school is not a member with these organizations,
virtual school students zoned for the particular school shall be able to participate in interscholastic
athletics to the same extent as other students.
Policy 4.403 - Library Materials
A recent change to state law clarifies that materials may not be excluded from school libraries solely
on the grounds that they are religious.
Policy 4.406 - Use of the Internet
The Teen Social Media Act specifies limits that must be in place for district internet use regarding
age-appropriate content and protecting personal information. This new law also requires that districts
prevent students from accessing social media platforms on district-provided internet unless
expressly authorized by a teacher for educational purposes.
Policy 4.601 - Reporting Student Progress
Report cards for students in grades K-8 must now include the student's score on the most recently
administered universal reading screener and the results of a dyslexia screener, if applicable.
Policy 5.110 - Compensation Guides & Contracts
State law now permits Boards to determine whether to compensate a teacher's estate or designated
beneficiary for unused leave time. If the Board would like to offer this benefit, TSBA recommends
adding a provision to the policy.

Policy 5.119 - Employment of Retirees
Public Chapter 159 makes several changes that will impact employing retirees in the 2025-2026
school year. Importantly, there is now a requirement for a bona fide separation of service prior to
reemployment. This includes a sixty-day separation of service, and there can be no previous
agreement to return to work. TSBA recommends adopting the model policy.
Policy 5.305 (Family and Medical Leave)
A clean-up bill, Public Chapter 235, made several changes to state law. One significant change is to
the paid parental leave statute and which employees may use this type of leave. Under the new law,
employees must satisfy the following criteria to be eligible for this paid leave: (1) have received a
license or an emergency credential from the Department of Education required for the relevant
position; and (2) be in a full-time position that requires the relevant license or emergency credential
for at least twelve consecutive months. The changes to state law also clarify how this leave can be
taken. Now, employees may choose whether to take the leave consecutively or nonconsecutively but
in increments of no less than one week.
5.701 (Substitute Teachers)
Public Chapter 235 changes the number of days that a substitute teacher can teach without a
license. This was previously set at twenty days and has been increased to thirty.
Policy 6.200a - Attendance
Public Chapter 401 requires entities that provide released time courses to submit proof of
compliance with state law on background checks. TSBA maintains an optional provision on released
time courses in its alternate version of policy 6.200. This version of the model policy has been
updated to highlight the responsibility of these independent entities.
Policy 6.303 - Questioning Students and Searches
There is a new training requirement for school personnel who may conduct searches of students.
Going forward, any searches of students must be carried out by a school resource officer, a school
security officer. or a school administrator who has completed state-required training. Public Chapter
244 requires the Department of Education to develop this training.
Policy 6.312 - Use of Wireless Communication Devices
Public Chapter 103 requires Boards to adopt a policy on student use of wireless communication
devices. TSBA has created two versions of this model policy to assist Boards that may desire to have
different practices for younger students. Both versions include exceptions required by state law (e.g.,
use during emergencies).
Policy 6.411 - Student Wellness
Previously, state law required elementary students to receive 130 minutes of physical activity per
week. This has now been increased to 40 minutes each full school day. Middle and high school
students are still required to receive 90 minutes of physical activity per full school week. These
requirements are separate from physical education classes.

Policy 6.600 - Student Records
If a student transfers from one school to another, Public Chapter 156 requires the district to provide a
copy of the student's records to the new school within five business days.
Informational Items
TSBA sent out the following items for informational purposes. While these items do not necessarily
require any policy changes, they wanted you to be aware of the new legal requirements and how
they may impact board policy and operations.
Public Chapter 165 - Seizure and First Aid Training
This law requires districts to ensure that at least one full-time employee at each school receives
seizure and first aid training. Further, this law excludes the school nurse from the definition of
employee, so districts will need to ensure that there is another trained individual at each school.
Public Chapter 225 - Pre-K Eligibility
If the number of at-risk children seeking pre-kindergarten enrollment does not exceed the class size
maximum, this new state law permits districts to enroll additional children who meet certain
requirements.
Public Chapter 299 - Bus Driver Contracts
Boards are now prohibited from extending the immunity in the Governmental Tort Liability Act to
independent school bus contractors. Contracts with these individuals must now require sufficient
limits for tort liability exposures related to school-related transportation services. TSBA recommends
working with the board attorney on these provisions.
Public Chapter 347 ⑉ Update to the Families' Rights and Responsibilities Act (FRRA)
This Public Chapter updates the FRRA with clarifying language. Of note. these changes permit
recording if the district has requested parental consent and allow employees to assist with
non-emergency first aid (e.g., providing a Band-Aid, ice packs).
Public Chapter 453 - Preferred Name and Pronoun Legislation
Public Chapter 453 states that students, teachers, employees, and contractors are not required to
use the preferred name or pronoun of any student, teacher, employee, or contractor if these are
inconsistent with the individual's sex and/or their legal name. This applies to nicknames if the name
is not derivative of the individual's legal name.

Hickman County Schools
Operations of the Threat
3.204.1
Assessment Team
The following members have been appointed to the threat assessment team for the school district:
Student Safety & Support Supervisor
Hickman County Sheriff's SRO Sergeant
Centerville City Police SRO Sergeant
Department of Homeland Security, Hickman County Agent
Juvenile Justice Youth Service Office
Hickman County Schools Behavioral Health
Other District Safety Personnel
TRAINING
The Student Safety & Support supervisor will be responsible for overseeing the training of the
team. This training will be facilitated by the local law enforcement agency and mental health
service providers (when available) on how to assess individuals exhibiting threatening or
disruptive behavior and how to develop interventions for these individuals.
OPERATIONS
The school team will conduct threat assessments based on the dangerous or threatening behavior
of individuals in the school, home, or community setting who present a threat to the health or
safety of that individual or to others.
The assessment will take place in the following order:
1. Evaluate the threat - this includes collective information and conducting interviews;
2. Decide whether the threat is substantive - the threat will be considered and categorized as
a certain level of risk;
3. If not substantive, respond to the threat - this doesn't require a complete threat assessment;
and
4. If deemed as substantive, assess the seriousness of the threat - this is determined by
examining the severity of the threatened injury/action.
5. If deemed as substantive, the district threat assessment team will determine the appropriate
method of intervention, diversion, and de-escalation of threats.
The response to the threat shall be handled in an appropriate manner, which would include
notifying and protecting all potentially involved individuals, cautioning the individual who may
36
carry out the threat of the consequences; and determine the appropriate management and discipline
considerations to resolve the problem. Hickman County Schools district threat assessment team
meets monthly to discuss, evaluate, and update regarding each individual situation.
Special Education Students & Threat Assessment
The use of a threat assessment is not intended to override the rights available to students with
disabilities under federal law, including the right to a free appropriate public education and the
right to a manifestation determination review.
To the extent possible, the district shall continue to provide a general education curriculum and
services to students with disabilities as listed in their Section 504 plan or individualized education
program (IEP) until the threat assessment is complete.
Guidance and Best Practices
During the school year, guidance will be provided to students, faculty, and staff on how to
recognize, address, and report threatening or dangerous behavior. This guidance will also include
best practices for the intervention and prevention of violence and will be in the form of student
and teacher handbooks and shared at faculty meetings.
If someone within the school district becomes aware of this type of behavior, the following
procedures shall be followed:
Step by step procedures are in place in individual school EOP's.
Once a report is submitted to the team, the team will develop the appropriate course of action.
Courses of action include, but are not limited to, the following: referrals to community services or
healthcare providers, notification to the individual's parent(s)/guardian(s), notification of law
enforcement and emergency medical services, referral to support service, and monthly touchpoint
meetings with the district threat assessment team.
Post-Incident Assessment
After an assessment or report has been resolved, the team will develop a post-incident assessment
and evaluate the effectiveness and response of the school district to the incident.
The findings of this evaluation and the post-incident assessment shall be reported to the Director
of Schools and will be taken into consideration when developing/modifying the district-wide
school safety plan. If the assessment and evaluation are applicable to a specific school, the
principal will be notified and will take these findings into consideration when
developing/modifying the building-level school safety plan.

1
Employees shall be provided a work environment free from sexual, racial, ethnic and religious
2
discrimination/harassment (including the definition of antisemitism found in policy 4.100). It shall be a
3
violation of this policy for any employee or any student to discriminate against or harass an employee
4
through disparaging conduct or communication that is sexual, racial, ethnic or religious in nature. The
5
following guidelines are set forth to protect employees from discrimination/harassment.
6
Employee discrimination/harassment will not be tolerated.¹ Discrimination/harassment is defined as
7
conduct, advances, gestures or words either written or spoken of a sexual, racial, ethnic or religious
8
nature which:
9
1. Unreasonably interfere with the individual's work or performance; or
10
2. Create an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment; or
11
3. Imply that submission to such conduct is made an explicit or implicit term of employment;
12
4. Imply that submission to or rejection of such conduct will be used as a basis for an employment
13
decision affecting the harassed employee.
14
Alleged victims of sexual, racial, ethnic and religious discrimination/harassment shall report these
15
incidents immediately.² This report should be made to the immediate supervisor except when the
16
immediate supervisor is the offending party. If the immediate supervisor is the offending party, the report
17
may be made to the Federal Rights Coordinator or the director of schools. Allegations of
18
discrimination/harassment shall be fully investigated (as set forth in Complaints and Grievances 5.500).
19
An oral complaint may be submitted; however, such complaint must be reduced to writing to ensure a
20
more complete investigation. The complaint should include the following information:
21
1. Identity of the alleged victim and person accused;
22
2. Location, date, time and circumstances surrounding the alleged incident;
23
3. Description of what happened;
24
4. Identity of witnesses; and
25
5. Any other evidence available.
26
The privacy and anonymity of all parties and witnesses to complaints will be respected. However,
27
because an individual's need for confidentiality must be balanced with obligations to cooperate with
28
police investigations or legal proceedings, to provide due process to the accused, to conduct a thorough
29
investigation or to take necessary action to resolve a complaint, the identity of parties and witnesses may
30
be disclosed in appropriate circumstances to individuals with a need to know.
31
A substantiated charge against an employee shall result in disciplinary action up to and including
32
termination. A substantiated charge against a student may result in corrective or disciplinary action up
33
to and including suspension.

an investigation. However, any employee who refuses to cooperate or gives false information during the
3
course of any investigation may be subject to disciplinary action. The willful filing of a false report will
4
itself be considered harassment and will be treated as such.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES
6
An eligible employee shall be granted, upon request, up to twelve (12) weeks unpaid leave during a fixed calendar
7
year for the following reasons:
8
1. the birth of a child;
9
2. the placement of a child with the employee for adoption or foster care;
10
3. a serious health condition of the employee that makes the employee unable to perform the essential
11
functions of his or her job position;
12
4. the care of a spouse, child, or parent of the employee who has a serious health condition; and
13
5. any qualifying circumstances arising out of the fact that a spouse, child, or parent of the employee is on
14
covered active duty, or has been notified of an impending call or order to covered active duty, in the
15
Armed Forces.
16
Granting of leave under this policy shall be subject to, and in accordance with, the provisions of applicable federal
17
and state laws. An employee may substitute accrued paid leave for unpaid time. Use of accrued paid leave shall
18
run concurrently with and be counted toward the employee's total period of FMLA leave.
19
MATERNITY/PATERNITY LEAVE
20
1. Relationship between FMLA leave and Tennessee Maternity Act leave- FMLA leave shall run
21
concurrently with leave provided under the Tennessee Maternity Act, which affords eligible employees
22
leave for a period not to exceed four (4) months for the adoption, pregnancy, childbirth and nursing of a
23
newborn child.³
24
2. Teachers' Leave- In accordance with state law, any teacher who goes on maternity or paternity
25
leave shall be allowed to use all or a portion of the teacher's accumulated sick or annual leave
26
for maternity leave purposes. In order to be eligible to use sick leave, written request of the
27
teacher accompanied by a statement from the teacher's physician verifying pregnancy shall be
28
submitted. Upon verification by a written statement from an adoption agency or other entity
29
handling an adoption, a teacher may also be allowed to use accumulated leave for adoption of a
30
child. If both adoptive parents are teachers employed by the district, however, only one (1)
31
parent is entitled to use such leave.
32
3. Spouses who are both eligible employees of the school district are limited to a combined total of twelve
33
(12) workweeks of FMLA leave in a single twelve (12) month period if the leave is taken for birth and
34
care of a newborn child, for placement of a child for adoption or foster care, or to care for a parent who
35
has a serious health condition. Under certain circumstances, spouses who share leave for the birth or

adoption of a child may be eligible for limited amounts of additional leave for other qualifying FMLA
2
reasons.⁵
3
4. Paid Parental Leave - Under state law, an additional six (6) work weeks of paid leave is available
4
to eligible employees after a birth, stillbirth, or adoption of a newly placed minor child.⁶ An
5
eligible employee taking leave under this provision shall not be required to utilize any other type
6
of accrued leave during this period. Eligible employees include teachers, principals, supervisors,
7
or other individuals required by law to hold a valid license of qualification for employment who
8
have been employed with a school district full time for at least twelve (12) consecutive months.
9

16
C. Have held a valid license or an emergency credential issued by the Department of
17
Education per TCA 49-5-106 for the entire twelve consecutive months of fulltime
18

19
20
Employees shall provide notice to the school district thirty (30) days prior to the intended use of
21
the leave. If the employee learns about the need for leave less than thirty (30) days in advance,
22
the employee shall give notice as soon as reasonably possible in order to be eligible for the paid
23
leave. This paid leave does not need to be taken consecutively; however, the paid leave shall be
24
used within twelve (12) months of the qualifying event. The leave shall run concurrently with
25
FMLA leave. This paid leave shall be either: (1) taken consecutively, except in extenuating
26
circumstances, as determined by the Director of Schools; or (2) taken nonconsecutively, but in
27
increments of no less than one (1) week. The paid leave shall be used within twelve (12) months

to a combined total of twenty-six (26) workweeks of leave to provide care for a covered service member.
20
The maximum of twenty-six (26) workweeks may include no more than twelve (12) workweeks of leave
21
that is taken for the birth and care of a newborn child, for placement of a child for adoption or foster care,
22
for care of a parent who has a serious health condition, or for the employee's own serious health condition.
23
INTERMITTENT LEAVE¹⁰

25
family member, or because of the employee's own serious health condition, or for the care for a newborn, a newly
26
adopted child, or a newly placed foster care child. When a licensed employee requests foreseeable leave for
27
planned medical treatment and the employee would be on leave for greater than 20% of the total number of
28
working days in the period during which the leave would extend, the school may require that such employee elect
29
either to take the leave for periods of a particular duration, not to exceed the duration of the planned medical
30
treatment or to transfer temporarily to an available alternative position offered by the school system for which the
31
employee is qualified, and that has equivalent pay and benefits and better accommodates recurring periods of
32
leave.

21
attendance at school is required. Students shall be present at least fifty percent (50%) of the scheduled
22
school day in order to be counted present. Students may attend part-time days, alternating days, or for a
23
specific amount of time as indicated in their Individualized Education Plan or 504 Plan and shall be
24
considered present for school attendance purposes. If a student is required to participate in a remedial
25
instruction program outside of the regular school day where there is no cost to the parent(s) and the
26
school system provides transportation, unexcused absences from these programs shall be reported in the
27
same manner.⁷
28
Students who are absent five (5) days without adequate excuse shall be reported to the director of
29
schools/designee who will, in turn, provide written notice to the parent(s)/guardian(s) of the student's
30
absence. If a parent does not provide documentation within adequate time excusing those absences, or
31
request an attendance hearing, then the Director of Schools shall implement the progressive truancy
32
intervention plan described below prior to referral to juvenile court.
33
The director of schools/designee shall develop appropriate administrative procedures to implement this

provide documentation to the principal/designee as proof of the student's participation in the released
22
time course.
23
The district shall not be responsible for transporting students to and from the place of instruction.
24
Upon submission of the student's transcript from the entity that provided the released time course, the
25
student may be awarded one-half (1) unit of elective credit.
26
The Director of Schools shall develop procedures with secular criteria for determining whether credit
27
shall be awarded.
28
MAKE-UP WORK
29
All missed class work or tests (whether from excused or unexcused absence) may be made up provided
30
the student makes the request immediately upon returning to school and provided instruction time is not
31
taken from other students.
32
A grade of incomplete will be received for any work missed until the work is completed. A student may
33
have up to three (3) days to make up work from a single absence and up to five (5) days to make up work
34
from an absence longer than a single day. It is the student's responsibility to make arrangements for

9
the End of Course Exam.
10
Students who have an unexcused absence shall receive a failing grade on the course exam which shall
11
be averaged into their final grade at 15%.
12
CREDIT/PROMOTION DENIAL
13
Credit/promotion denial determinations may include student attendance, however, student attendance
14
may not be the sole criterion. 11 However, if attendance is a factor, prior to credit/promotion denial, the
15
following shall occur:

17
1. Parents and students shall be advised if a student is in danger of credit/promotion denial due
18
to excessive absenteeism.
19
2. Procedures in due process are available to the student when credit or promotion is denied.
20
DRIVER'S LICENSE REVOCATION²
21
More than ten (10) consecutive or fifteen (15) reported unexcused absences by a student during any
22
semester renders a student ineligible to retain a driver's permit or license, or to obtain such if of age.
23
ATTENDANCE HEARING¹²
24
Students with excessive (more than 5) unexcused absences or those in danger of credit/promotion denial
25
shall have the opportunity to appeal to an attendance hearing committee appointed by the principal. If
26
the student chooses to appeal, the student or their parent/guardian shall be provided written or actual
27
notice of the appeal hearing and shall be given the opportunity to address the committee. The committee
28
will conduct a hearing to determine if any extenuating circumstances exist or to determine if the student
29
has met attendance requirements that will allow him/her to pass the course or be promoted. Upon
30
notification of the attendance committee decision, the principal shall send written notification to the
31
director of schools/designee and the parent(s)/guardian(s) of the student of any action taken regarding
32
the excessive unexcused absences. The notification shall advise parents/guardian(s) of their right to
33
appeal such action within two (2) school days to the director of schools/designee.
34
The appeal shall be heard no later than ten (10) school days after the request for appeal is received.
35
Within five (5) school days of the director of schools/designee rendering a decision, the student's
36
parent(s)/guardian(s) may request a hearing by the Board, and the Board shall review the record.

Attendance
6.200AP
Each day, student attendance is taken by staff and reported to the front office of each school and
recorded in the student information system (Skyward). Students who are absent will have
automated phone calls made to their parent/guardian notifying them that the student is absent.
State law describes truant as a student having 5 unexcused absences. Attendance personnel in
each school have access to attendance reports that indicate when students have reached 3 days
and/or 5 days unexcused absences. Letters may be sent out at the principal's discretion at 3
unexcused absences to inform parents that their student is approaching a truant status. At 5 days
unexcused, schools should send out a letter requesting parents to provide notes to excuse those
absences in a timely manner. If a parent fails to provide documentation that would excuse those
days of unexcused attendance, the student is reported to the At-Risk Coordinator as truant. The At-
Risk Coordinator will then summon the parent/guardian and the student(s) to Truancy Council
(ONLY students in middle or high school should attend).
Abbreviated Days
Parents should be aware that abbreviated school days count as full days towards attendance.
Students who miss abbreviated days will receive an unexcused absence that counts the same as
a whole day.
Parent Notes
Hickman County allows parents to write notes for missed days when taking a child to the doctor is
not deemed necessary or when emergencies arise. Parents are allowed to write an excused note
for a total of 8 days for the school year.
Notes for any excused absence should be turned in to the school upon the return of the student to
school.
Seniors
School administration may deny participation in graduation exercises, prom, or any other senior
activities, to those seniors who accumulate more than 15 cumulative unexcused absences
regardless of the age of the senior.
104
Perfect Attendance
Students in attendance for 3 hours, 16 minutes (½ school day), will be counted as having attended
that day. (The computer will continue to count minutes not in attendance which may result in the
student showing more than 1 day absent when added up. This will not affect their perfect
attendance.)
Unexcused tardies and early dismissals when accumulated to add up to one or more days will result
in that student losing their Perfect Attendance status.
Students who have been home schooled and transfer into our system after October 1 of any school
year will not be eligible for having Perfect Attendance that school year.
Students who transfer from another system which would have started after our school year starts
will not be eligible for Perfect Attendance if they had not started school in their old system and enroll
with us after October 1 of that school year.
Students who transfer into our system from another system will be counted as having perfect
attendance if documentation is provided from the previous school system that they have had
perfect attendance at their previous school.
Progressive Truancy Plan
Database administrators will send parent notification forms home with students when students
meet the qualifications under the attendance policy.
Parent Attendance Notification Form
Released Course Time
When evaluating a course under the released time course policy, the secular criteria of the
course may include, but is not limited to:
1) The amount of classroom instruction time
2) The course syllabus

4) Whether the course was taught by an instructor licensed

Use of Metal Detectors
Hickman County Schools authorizes the use of hand-held or walk-through metal detectors to check a
student's person or personal effects as follows:
1. School officials or law enforcement officers may conduct metal detector checks of groups of
individuals if the checks are done in a minimally-intrusive, nondiscriminatory manner. Metal
detector checks of groups of individuals may not be used to single out a particular individual
or category of individuals.
2. If a school official or a law enforcement officer has reasonable suspicion to believe that a
particular student is in possession of an illegal or unauthorized metal-containing object or
weapon, s/he may conduct a metal detector check of the student's person and personal
effects.
A student's failure to permit a metal detector check as provided in this police will be considered
grounds for disciplinary action.
The Hickman County Alternative Schools use hand-held detectors for each student that enters the
classrooms. This is a precautionary measure to ensure the safety of students and staff.

school grounds and is not a firearm. This safe harbor provision does not apply if a search is ongoing
8
in the school. If a student approaches as school official and voluntarily surrenders such an object,
9
then the student will not be subject to discipline under these rules. The principal will make
10
arrangements to return the object to the student's parents or legal guardian.
11
2. If a student discovers an illegal item such as drugs, a weapon or other contraband (e.g. tobacco,
12
alcohol) on school property, including on a school bus, the student may approach a school official
13
and report the discovery. A student shall not be in violation of the rules solely by making such a
14
report. School officials shall use discretion in determining whether the circumstances surrounding
15
the report warrant further investigation of the reporting student.

Fall District Meetings - South Central
Description
In the fall our kids will be headed back to the classroom. That means it's time
for board members to start the school year off by participating in TSBA's Fall
District Meetings.
During August and September, meetings will be held in the nine
developmental districts to focus on legislative and legal issues and current
education "hot" topics. This year's program will provide school board
members and superintendents an opportunity to discuss issues for the 2026
legislative session and other state happenings.
The event will begin by recognizing school board members, a local school
volunteer award finalist, and a local student who is competing for a college
scholarship. TSBA District Director elections for the East, Northwest, South
Central, and Upper Cumberland will be held after the award ceremony.
