The Board delegates to the Superintendent the function of designing and implementing the procedures, required actions, and detailed arrangements under which the District will operate. These internal management memoranda, hereinafter, referred to as administrative procedures, shall not be inconsistent with the policies adopted by the Board.

The Board itself will adopt administrative procedures only when the Superintendent recommends Board adoption.

The Superintendent may also issue administrative and student handbooks as may be necessary for the effective administration of the schools and distribute them to employees and students and/or their parents.

As long as the provisions of these administrative procedures and handbooks are not inconsistent with Board rules and policies, or with Federal/State law, they will be considered to be an extension of the policy manual and binding upon all employees and students.

A copy of the District's administrative procedures manual and a copy of each handbook shall be made a part of the Board's reference materials maintained in the District office.
