The Essential Policy Manual
An expert NYSSBA policy consultant will work with your district to develop a concise policy manual tailored to reflect your board’s goals and priorities.  NYSSBA will:

  • Review your district’s existing policy materials
  • Meet with your district’s governance team

Your new Essential Policy Manual will be streamlined, up-to-date, well organized and customized to your district’s specific needs.
