Board Policies
What is the relationship between school board members and policy?School board members are policy makers. School boards function as members of a governmental body in a representative democracy. Just as the laws of the legislature are in writing, the policies of a school board must be written.
What is the purpose of school board policy?
Board policies set a definite course of action and help to guide and determine present and future decisions. Board policy should tell administrators what to do without telling them how to do it. Policy statements are written in broad, general terms, but also narrow enough for clear, concise guidance.
