Welcome to the Board Policy Manual for Sumner County Schools.
In the column to the left you will be able to access all the active policies that for our school district.
A proposed policy or policy amendment may be proposed by any Board member or by the Director of Schools and shall be submitted to the Board as part of the agenda. Any interested party shall be given an opportunity to be heard on the proposal. The Board may have the Director draft policies. The Board may refer a proposal for study and/or further revision. Contract provisions are not Board policy.
Adoption shall require an affirmative vote by a majority of the members of the Board on two separate readings. When appropriate, each approval will contain a future date for reporting the effectiveness of the policy.
Policies and amendments adopted by the Board shall be made a part of the minutes and shall be placed in the policy manual. Policies and amendments shall be effective immediately upon adoption unless a specific effective date is provided, and shall supercede any previous Board action on the subject.
