The Board recognizes that its most important function is to establish policies which communicate its direction for the management and control of the schools.

Policies are written statements adopted by the Board which communicate the guidelines and limits within which the Superintendent, or designee, and staff may take discretionary action.

The Board encourages members of the community to contribute information and opinions for the Board's consideration and propose revisions to policy.

The adoption of policy will conform with Board bylaws governing agenda, meetings, and voting. Only those written statements adopted and recorded in the minutes will constitute official Board policy.

Prior to adoption, policies will normally be given two readings by the Board. Substantive changes in policy will first be considered by the Board Policy Committee. At its second reading, the policy may be adopted by a majority vote of all members of the Board. The Board may require additional readings.

In addition to presenting drafts or suggestions for new policy and policy revisions when changes in law occur or when a specific need arises, the Superintendent or designee, will maintain procedures for the continuous orderly review of existing policies at a time allocated for this purpose on the agenda of regular Board meetings. When policies are amended, the Superintendent or designee, will review corresponding administrative regulations to ensure that they conform to the intent of the revised policy.

When drafting or revising Board policies which affect other governmental agencies or areas of common interest, the Superintendent or designee, will seek input from these agencies and will express the Board's desire to cooperate with them in addressing matters of mutual concern.
