SUBJECT: BOARD POLICIES UPDATE
Attached (ATTACHMENT A) is a chart showing the status of the project to review and
update Board policies and to remove procedural aspects from those policies. The
review of existing Board policies is complete and the Board has adopted several new
policies.
Also attached (ATTACHMENT B) is the index of sample policies put out by the CSDA.
They are in the process of updating their manual of sample policies and the updated
version should be available later this year. Many of the policies listed are more
administrative in nature, and many of them are covered already in our MOUs and other
internal documents. There is a section on page 4 of the index that lists Board -adopted
policies.
