Policy Manual



The School Board is a policy-making body whose function is to provide for the public education needs of the district. In accordance with applicable state and federal laws and regulations, the Board establishes policies and procedures for the governance of the Board and for the safe and orderly operation of the school district. The policies set forth by the Board are a result of extensive interaction of various committees, individuals, and groups and from the previous experiences and conditions. The purpose of a policy manual is to provide consistent and objective answers to numerous questions that may arise in the governance of public schools.

A hard copy of the Policy Manual can be found at the District Administration Office and each school building.

Our Policy Manual is currently under revision. Please check back often over the next several months to view new policies as they are adopted by the Board.

Questions regarding policy should be directed to the Superintendent's Office by calling 814-224-5124, or writing to 1100 E. Main Street, Roaring Spring, PA 16673.
