Policy Adoption
School Board Approved: May 2, 2016

Except for policy actions to be taken on emergency measures, the adoption of Board policies should follow this sequence which will take place at least at two regular or special meetings of the Board:

• Announcement and publication of proposed new or revised policies as an item of information.
  
• Opportunity offered to concerned groups or individuals to react to policy proposals.
  
• Discussion and final action by the Board on policy proposals.
  
• Policies and amendments adopted by the Board shall be attached to and made a part of the minutes of the meeting at which they are adopted and shall also be included in the policy manual of the District marked with the date of adoption and/or amendment.
  
• Policies and amendments to policies shall be effective immediately upon adoption unless a specific effective date is provided in the adopted resolution.
  

Emergency Procedure
On matters of unusual urgency, the Board may waive the above procedure and take immediate action to adopt new or revise existing policies. When such immediate action is necessary, the Superintendent shall inform concerned groups or individuals about the reasons for this necessity.
