There
is a definite hierarchy to follow when writing administrative
publications and it begins with the mission statement. The board
should not enact any motion that is in conflict with the mission
statement. Once approved, motions are written into policy and if
necessary, procedures developed. All written handbooks are, in
effect, an extension of board policy and should not be in
conflict with the mission statement, the board policy or
procedures. Memos should carry the same safeguards. All
communications should be numbered in some manner so they can be
cross referenced for easy verification. Don’t write
handbooks without the mission statement, educational philosophy,
and policies in place!
BEST will help you set up such
a system that will pay your school dividends far into the future.
It is always more economical to be proactive than to be
reactive.
