POLICY DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM

The Board endorses for use in this district the policy development, codification, and dissemination system adopted by the Georgia School Boards Association.

System Maintenance

The Superintendent or a designee has the responsibility to maintain the Board's policy manual, to draft policy proposals as instructed by the Board, and to serve as liaison between the Board and the Georgia School Boards Association and other sources of policy research information.
