Introduction: Board Policy and Administrative Procedure Manual
Overview and Table of Contents
Overview
District board policies and administrative procedures are divided into chapters and organized by subject area. In general, board policies are broad state4-ments approved by the Board of Trustees that implement laws and regulations and define the general goals and acceptable practices for the operations of the district. Administrative procedures implement policies and are approved through the district's participatory governance process. The Chancellor is charged with recommending changes to policy as well as developing and implementing administrative procedures.
