Board Policies and Regulations

The board supports educational partnerships and sponsorships between schools and business, and community organizations that:

• enhance the quality and relevance of education for learners;
• mutually benefit all partners;
• ensure that all those involved in the partnership are treated fairly and equitably;
• clearly define expectations, roles, and responsibilities for all partners;
• are based on shared or aligned objectives that support the goals of both parties;
• allocate resources and volunteer services to complement - not replace - public funding for education;
• ensure that corporate image or business practices are not in conflict with district policies or beliefs;
• provide opportunities for all partners to share in the development of responsible citizens; and
• do not require an exclusive endorsement of products or services.
