Bylaw Updates
Dear CCS Families:
The Board of Trustees of Casper Christian School is proposing the following revisions to its Constitution and Bylaws, effective only after giving public notice for 30 days and being accepted by a majority vote of the Board at a subsequent official Board meeting.
The proposed change is to eliminate the strikethrough portion in the following:
Article XII.02 Amendments
Currently reads: These bylaws may be amended by a three-fourths majority vote of the board members present in any regular meeting provided at least three-fourths of the entire Board of Trustees is in attendance and provided that the amendment shall have been proposed and discussed in a previous meeting of the Board. Proposed bylaw amendments must be posted on the school website for at least thirty days prior to the vote. Notification that changes to the bylaws are being considered by the board must be issued via electronic means at least twice during that thirty-day period but not less than two weeks prior to the vote. Amending the Statement of Faith in these bylaws whether by addition, deletion, or any other form of alteration shall be at the discretion of the Board of Trustees.
Proposed Change: These bylaws may be amended by a three-fourths majority vote of the board members present in any regular meeting provided at least three-fourths of the entire Board of Trustees is in attendance and provided that the amendment shall have been proposed and discussed in a previous meeting of the Board. Proposed bylaw amendments must be posted on the school website for at least thirty days prior to the vote. Notification that changes to the bylaws are being considered by the board must be issued via electronic means at least twice during that thirty-day period but not less than two weeks prior to the vote. Amending the Statement of Faith in these bylaws whether by addition, deletion, or any other form of alteration shall be at the discretion of the Board of Trustees.
Explanation: The deleted statements are better reflected in our board policy manual which will read “our school families will be advised of any changes to our by-laws” instead of in our by-laws which is our governing manual.
These proposed changes to the Bylaws will also be posted on the CCS website under the Mountaineers tab for the next 30 days. If you have questions or concerns about this proposed changes, please direct your questions to Mark Earwood at mearwood@ccs-wy.org.
