388.181 Adoption of policy for pupil-led conferences. [Effective July 1, 2011.]
1. The board of trustees of each school district shall adopt a policy which allows the board of trustees to require a pupil enrolled in a middle school or junior high school in the school district to conduct a pupil-led conference between the pupil, the pupil’s parent or legal guardian and the pupil’s teacher to review the educational development of the pupil at least once during the enrollment of the pupil in the middle school or junior high school. The policy must include, without limitation:
(a) Guidelines for preparing the pupil to conduct the conference, including, without limitation, the appropriate structure of a conference and topics of discussion for the conference; and
(b) A method for the pupil, the pupil’s parent or legal guardian and the teacher to provide an evaluation of the conference.
2. If a pupil is required to conduct a pupil-led conference, the conference must be used as a guide for the pupil and the parent or legal guardian of the pupil to monitor the pupil’s educational development. If the pupil does not conduct a pupil-led conference or if the parent or legal guardian of the pupil does not attend a pupil-led conference, the pupil is eligible for promotion to high school if the pupil otherwise satisfies the requirements for promotion to high school.
