Policy 9132

Bylaws of the Board

Standing Committees

Standing committee members shall be appointed by the Chairperson of the Board of Education at a Board of Education meeting at such time as the Board decides to create or recreate the committee. The Chairperson shall be an ex-officio member of each standing committee.

Each standing committee shall be considered to be in session for one year only.  The duties of the committee shall be outlined at the time of appointment, and the committee shall regularly report to the Board of Education.

Standing committees are comprised solely of Board members and must be less than a majority of the Board.  Although the Superintendent may serve in an ex-officio capacity and standing committees may seek input from administrators, staff and others, only standing committee members may vote or otherwise agree upon recommendations to be made to the full Board.
