About Board of Education policies
Board of Education policies are statements or guidelines that provide guidance and direction to school employees regarding many matters ranging from students to finance. There are two basic types of policies -- those required by law and others developed as local policies of the Board of Education.

The policies of the Board of Education are reviewed periodically and some policies are required by New York State law to be reviewed annually. The Board of Education typically creates a board member policy review committee that meets outside of regular board meetings to review and develop recommended modifications to existing policies or the creation of new policies.

Reviewing Board of Education policies
Proposed policy drafts (also called "first readings") are posted on this web site for public review and information. As policies are updated and approved by the entire Board of Education, approved policies appear below. In the future, all policies will be posted on this web site in a searchable database.

Approved policies
Note: Only those policies approved after November 15, 2004 by the Board of Education are posted here. Hard copies of all policies are available in the District Office.
