Superintendent Aleman explained during the meeting that the district plans to switch policy management from Neola to Thrun, noting benefits such as better alignment with the district’s legal counsel and eventual cost savings from lower annual fees. Thrun already serves as the district’s legal counsel and will now also provide policy services, replacing Neola as the policy provider. This move suggests an upcoming implementation period to migrate and update policies and related documents, including future revisions of school handbooks to align with Thrun-managed policies.While the core policy provider decision is effectively made, there may be opportunities for vendors offering policy management software integration, handbook publishing, staff training on updated policies, or compliance communication tools to support the transition and ongoing management.

Thrun is currently the district’s legal counsel and will also become the policy management provider, replacing Neola. Handbooks are expected to be revised after the switch.
