DEVELOPMENT AND REVIEW OF ADMINISTRATIVE REGULATIONS


The Board assigns to the superintendent the general supervision of the schools.1 This includes the function of specifying required actions and designing the detailed arrangements under which the schools will be operated, whenever practical. These detailed arrangements shall constitute the administrative regulations governing the schools. They shall be defined in written form and organized by subject or date with adequate indexing for easy use. Make-up and distribution will be so as to facilitate easy filing and proper use, and distribution shall include the members of the Board. The administrative regulations must in every respect be consistent with the policies of the Board.

The Board itself shall strive to formulate and adopt administrative regulations only when specific state laws require board adoption. But the Board may also do so when the superintendent recommends Board adoption for the improved operation of the system.

The Board reserves the right to review and veto administrative rules should they, in the Board's judgment, be inconsistent with the policies adopted by the Board.
