The BOARD on its own behalf hereby retains and reserves unto itself all powers,
rights, authority, duties, and responsibilities conferred upon and vested in it by
applicable law, rules, and regulations to establish the framework of school

the right:
To the executive management and administrative control of the school
system and its properties, programs, and facilities;
To employ all personnel and, subject to the provisions of law or State
Department of Public Instruction regulations, determine their qualifications
and conditions of employment, or their dismissal or demotion, their
promotion and their work assignment;
To establish and supervise the program of instruction and to establish
and provide supervision under agreed-upon rules for such programs of an
extra-curricular nature as the BOARD feels are of benefit to students;
To determine means and methods of instruction, selection of textbooks
and other teaching materials, the use of teaching aids, class schedules,
hours of instruction, length of school year, and terms and conditions of
employment.
The exercise of the foregoing powers, right, authority, duties and responsibilities
by the BOARD, the adoption of policies, rules, regulations, and practices in
furtherance thereof, and the use of judgment and discretion in connection
therewith shall be limited by the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreements

The BOARD further recognizes the unique value of the teaching staff and the
administrative officers of the BOARD to advise the BOARD on matters of policies
relating to pupils, the building construction and maintenance of schools, and
especially the instruction of pupils; and instructs the SUPERINTENDENT to seek
the advice and counsel of the teaching staff and the administrative staff
whenever the SUPERINTENDENT deems the advice and counsel pertinent.
