REVIEWED BY POLICY COMMITTEE: 12/13/17

POLICY ADOPTION

Policies will be adopted and/or amended by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Board (8) when such action has been scheduled on the agenda of a regular meeting.

To permit time for study of all new policies or amendments to policies and to provide an opportunity for interested parties to react, proposed policies or amendments will be presented as agenda items to the Board in the following sequence:

1.) First reading of the proposed policy or policies to provide an opportunity for:

A.) Response from Superintendent.

B.) Report from any Board advisory committee assigned responsibility in the area.

C.) Board discussion and directions for any redrafting.

2.) Second reading to provide an additional opportunity for discussion and then adoption or rejection.

Amendments to the policy at the second reading will not require repetition of the sequence, unless the Board so directs.

In instance, the Board may dispense with the above procedure to meet special conditions by an affirmative vote of 2/3 of the Directors present.

Policies will be effective upon adoption or on the date set by the Board.
