BOARD-SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT RELATIONS

 

 

The St. Martin Parish School Board recognizes and directs that Board members and the Superintendent keep their functions clearly in mind.  The Board shall exercise deliberative, legislative and judicial functions as a Board.  The Superintendent shall serve as the Board's executive officer and its educational advisor.  However, the final responsibility for educational planning and results shall rest with the Board.

 

The St. Martin Parish School Board recognizes that it is the responsibility of the Superintendent, with the advice and assistance of his or her staff, to prepare and make recommendations to the Board concerning all important business and professional matters.  The Board may accept, modify, or reject such recommendations.  If the Board has formally adopted any policies, plans, or programs for the operation of the schools, it is the responsibility of the Superintendent to put these policies, plans and programs into effect in complete conformity with the Board's wishes.
