Board Policies and Administrative Procedures
Board Policy
Board policy is the voice of the Governing Board and defines the general goals and acceptable practices for the operation of the District. It implements federal and state laws and regulations. The Governing Board, through policy, delegates authority to and through the Superintendent/President to administer the District. The Superintendent/President and District employees are responsible to reasonably interpret Board policy as well as other relevant laws and regulations that govern the District. *
Administrative Procedure
Administrative procedures implement Board policy, laws, and regulations. They address how the general goals of the District are achieved and define operations of the District. They include details of policy implementation, responsibility, accountability, and standards of practice. Although procedures may be developed by the Superintendent/President, managers, faculty members, and staff members, it is the administrators/managers who are held responsible for upholding the specific information delineated in the procedures. Procedures do not require Governing Board action.

* The District adheres to the requirements of California Education Code, California Code of Regulations Title 5, and other state and federal laws and regulations.

The District's review of policies and procedures is ongoing. An asterisk (*) following the title indicates that the policy (BP) and/or procedure (AP) is being updated.
