Membership in Associations
BP 9330.00
MEMBERSHIP IN ASSOCIATIONS
Membership in recognized associations such as Association of Alaska School Boards may be maintained by the schools for several reasons, including:
- The inservice education benefits to our staff and School Board which come from participation in meetings, conferences, clinics and conventions.
- Access to the communication media of such associations, such as newsletters, periodicals and advisory services.
- Representation in actions affecting education in general and the school district in particular.
The Board in maintaining such membership in no way abdicates its authority over the responsibility for the schools of the district as outlined in state law and Board policy.
The Superintendent is directed to budget funds for such memberships, and for paying the costs of adequate participation of Board, administration and staff in the activities of such association to achieve the purposes listed above.
