Rules Of Order: BEDD

Except as otherwise specified by state law or Board policies pertaining to its own operating procedures, the Board shall operate by the rules prescribed in Robert's Rules of Order, Newly Revised as those rules can reasonably be applied to the conduct of school board business.

It shall be the responsibility of the Board president to utilize such rules when appropriate to do so.
