Longer-form draft.
At its June 8 meeting the Watertown Policy Subcommittee reviewed four policy items and approved three to advance to the full School Committee. The staff social media policy (IJNDD) received edits clarifying professional standards and student boundaries. The health and wellness policy (ADF/ADFA) added requirements for minimum eating times, farm-to-school efforts, staff wellness, and water testing coordination with DPW. A new restraint and seclusion policy was aligned with state regulations effective August 2026; members noted incomplete Watertown entries in the public DESE data and asked staff to verify submissions. The religious education policy was consolidated into one document covering constitutional requirements and student expression. The approved items passed without recorded opposition and will receive first readings at the full committee. https://meetingwatch.org/ma/watertown/school-committee/2026-06-08/ #MeetingWatch #WatertownMA
