Policy Development

 

The board reserves the function of providing policies to guide the actions of those to whom it delegates authority. These policies shall be recorded in writing.

 

The formulation and adoption of these written policies shall constitute the most significant method by which the board shall exercise its leadership in the operation of the school system. In formulating policies, the board shall adopt general principles and statements of intent. The superintendent of schools and professional staff shall take action subsequently. Application of such policies to individual problems and tasks is an administrative function to be performed by the superintendent of schools. The superintendent of schools shall, in turn, when necessary, or when directed by the board, prepare written administrative procedures to insure the

implementation of board policy.

 
The LSC Board of Trustees maintains membership in both the Indiana School Boards Association and the National School Boards Association.
