R3The District agrees with recommendation #3 to formulate and implement policies covering the hiring of employee and Board member relatives to avoid the appearance of bias or favoritism in recruitment and position assignments. The District will recommend that the Board approve Board Policy Employment of Relatives BP4112.8, 4212.8., and 4312.8 as described in the California School Boards Association suggested Board Policies guidelines. This policy prohibits the appointment of any person to aposition that is supervised, evaluated, or managed by his/her relative. It also prohibits an employee or Board member from participating in any decision that applies specifically to his/her relative. The first readings for the new BP will be held during the September Board meetings, and will be implemented

R4to implement apolicy prohibiting direct employee supervision of family members. This prohibition will be explained in Board Policy Employment ofRelatives BP4112.8, 4212.8., and 4312.8 as described above. The new Board Policy will be implemented by October 26,2010. 5. It is with reservation that the District agrees with recommendation #7. The District does not currently have a question on employment applications asking candidates if they have relatives who work for MUSD because of the potential liability for possible discrimination claims on the basis of marital or domestic partnership status. After consulting with legal counsel, the District feels that having a Board Policy in place to prohibit direct supervision of family members and/or to make a determination about a specific family member's employment or promotion status will provide a rationale for asking such a question at some point during the hiring process. The District will add the following inquiry to all interview questionnaires by September 1,2010: Please state the names of any relatives already employed by MUSD.
