The Board shall, at least once every five years, review Board policy. Each year, the Board may make a determination about the sections and/or series of the policy manual and the specific policies in the policy manual to be reviewed. Once the policy has been reviewed, even if no changes were made, a notation of the date of review shall be made on the face of the policy statement.
It shall be the responsibility of the Superintendent to keep the Board informed as to legal changes at both the federal and state levels. The Superintendent shall also be responsible for bringing proposed policy statement revisions to the Board’s attention.
If a policy is revised because of a legal change over which the Board has no control, the policy may be approved at one meeting at the discretion of the board.
