202 - Duties of the Board of Directors

The Board is authorized to govern the District which it oversees.  As the governing board of the District, the Board has three duties to perform:  legislative duty, executive duty, and evaluative duty.

As a representative of the citizens of the District community, the Board is responsible for legislating policy for the District.  As a policy making body, the Board has jurisdiction to enact policy with the force and effect of law for the management and operation of the District.

It is the responsibility of the Board, under the Board’s executive duty, to select its chief executive officer, the Superintendent, to operate the District on the Board’s behalf.  The Board delegates to the Superintendent its authority to carry out Board policy, to formulate and carry out rules and regulations and to handle the administrative details in a manner which supports and is consistent with Board policy.

The Board has a responsibility to review the education program’s performance under its evaluative duty.  The Board regularly reviews the education program and ancillary services.  The review includes a careful study and examination of the facts, conditions, and circumstances surrounding the amount of funds received or expended and the education program’s ability to achieve the Board’s educational philosophy for the District.
