Board-School Superintendent Relations

            The Clay County School Board recognizes and directs that the 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 educational advisor. However, the final responsibility for educational planning and results shall rest with the Board.

            The Clay County School Board recognizes that it is the responsibility of the Superintendent, with the assistance and advice of his/her staff, to prepare and make recommendations to the Board on all business and professional matters. The Board may accept, table, 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.
