Board Policy

CHANDLER PUBLIC SCHOOLS BOARD OF EDUCATION
POLICY AND PROCEDURE MANUAL
UPDATED JUNE 2013

PREFACE

The Constitution of the United States leaves to the several states the responsibility of providing public education for all children and the Constitution of the State of Oklahoma provides that “The Legislature shall establish and maintain a system of free public schools.”  It is therefore the function and responsibility of the local school district conformity with state laws to establish its own rules and policies for the maintenance of schools within the district.

Written policies are a necessity if a board of education is to follow a clearly defined course of action, consistent through the years.  These policies were written to empower and limit administrators, faculty and staff in the general cause of managing an Oklahoma public school district and to assist all interested persons in reaching a better understanding of the operation of the district.

The board recognizes that no policy book can cover every subject.  Instead, the board is governed by the Constitution and appropriate laws of the United States, the constitution and laws of Oklahoma and regulations of the State Board of Education.  These policies are an extension of those laws and regulations.

All policies, regulations, procedures, and exhibits and exhibits contained herein are subject to change, as the board of education deems necessary and appropriate.  Final interpretation and application of any statement herein is within the discretion of the board of education.
