Monday night’s meeting of the Fall River School Committee at B.M.C. Durfee High School heard two new policy proposals from School Committee member Collin Dias, aiming to tidy up the committee’s contractual spending and their handling of complaints. 

Dias said he believes Fall River Public Schools should refrain from doing business with any “board, commission, or any multi-member body” that does not have public input.

He requested a second measure of transparency by championing a “professional standards department,” created by Superintendent Dr. Tracy Curley, that would use an “anonymous tip line” to report “violations … of policy, procedure, waste and fraud” to the School Committee, as outlined on the Feb. 10 meeting agenda.
