Code: CB
Readopted: 5/15/17, 2/20/24
Adopted: 2/09/98
Orig. Code(s): CB
The superintendent[1] is the district’s chief executive officer and has, under the Board’s direction, general supervision of all district schools, personnel and departments. The superintendent is responsible for managing the schools under the Board’s policies and is accountable to the Board for that management. The Board may not direct the superintendent to take any action that conflicts with a local, state or federal law[2] that applies to school districts[3].
The superintendent may delegate to other district personnel any powers and duties imposed upon the superintendent by Board policies or by vote of the Board. Delegation of power or duty, however, will not relieve the superintendent of responsibility for action taken under such delegation.
