RMA School Board Policies

BOARD POLICIES: The School Board Policy Manual contains two types of policies: legally referenced policies and local policies.

  • LEGAL POLICY – Legally referenced policies recite state or federal laws or regulations and other sources of legal authority. Legal policy is reviewed by the Board of Trustees. 
  • LOCAL POLICY – Local policies reflect board positions and may be unique to the district. Local policy will usually expand on or qualify directives or options provided by law and should reflect the essential board governance statements: a broad authorization of programs and services; specific directives or standards; restrictions; delegation of responsibility; and/or expected outcomes. Local policy is adopted by the Board of Trustees.
