The Board
believes that the legislation of policies is the most important function of a
school board, and that the execution of the policies is the function of the Superintendent.
Delegation
by the Board of its executive powers to the Superintendent provides freedom
for the superintendent to manage the schools within the Board's policies, and
frees the board to devote its time to policymaking and appraisal functions.
The Board holds the Superintendent responsible for
carrying out its policies within the established policy framework and for
keeping the Board informed about school operations.
