FORMULATION, ADOPTION, AMENDMENT OF BYLAWS
The Board of Education's Bylaws are rules designed to organize and control its internal operations. Some Bylaws are set by statute. Others may be formulated and adopted at its option by the Board of Education itself as long as they are in harmony with the intent and specifics of the statutes. In its deliberations leading to the establishment or amendment of its Bylaws, the Board’s central concern will be for increased efficiency and effectiveness in carrying out its legally mandated tasks. Proposed new Bylaws and suggested amendments to or revisions of existing Bylaws shall be adopted by a majority vote of the members of the Board present and voting during the second of two regularly or specially scheduled meetings of the board. The proposed additions, amendments or revisions shall have been described in writing in the calls for these meetings.
