Policy Title: Employee Records Code No.: 416
The school district shall maintain personnel records on employees. The records are important for the daily administration of the educational program, for implementing board policy, for budget and financial planning, and for meeting state and federal requirements.
The records shall include, but not be limited to, records necessary for the daily administration of the school district, salary records, discipline records, evaluations, applications for employment, references, and other items needed to carry out board policy. Employee personnel files are school district records and are considered confidential records and therefore are not open to public inspection or accessibility.
Employees may have access to their personnel files as required by law. The school district may charge a reasonable fee for copies made.
It shall be the responsibility of the superintendent and/or designee to keep employees’ personnel files current. The board secretary shall be the custodian of employee records.
It shall be the responsibility of the superintendent and/or designee to develop administrative regulations for the implementation of this policy.
