POLICY MANUAL REVISION

 

This option includes a complete overhaul of the current policy manual to updated and streamline each individual policy. In addition to a review, recent school board minutes and each school's student and teacher handbooks will be examined for explicit and implied policy ramifications. It also includes a remodification of the existing manual, when necessary, utilizing an alphabetical coding system. Each policy shall be revised and referenced where appropriate to reflect its basic origin from statutes, court decisions, state regulations and/or Board minutes.

 

The process used in revising the Board's policy can be tailored to include as much or as little staff assistance as the Board desires. Once the initial draft is developed, considerable selected invovlement by staff members is generally necessary. After review by the staff, changes are made in accordance with their recommendations and the revised draft is then generally presented to the school board for its approval.
