In order to enhance the quality and effectiveness of school governance, members of the board are encouraged to participate in professional activities such as school board workshops and conferences sponsored by regional, state, or national educational associations. The board shall be responsible for necessary expenses of its members attending such activities.

 

To help members develop understanding of the educational program, members of the professional staff will be requested to appear before the board to present and discuss various areas of curriculum and instruction. The superintendent may also provide board training sessions.  Each new member of the board will be afforded every opportunity to become oriented to the functions and responsibilities of the board and its members (as soon as practicable.
