Policy Services
Establishing policy is one of the main responsibilities of any school board. Through policy, school boards set a course of action for the operation of the entire school corporation.
Board policy should tell administrators what to do, without telling them how to do it. Policy statements are written in broad, general terms but also narrow enough for clear, concise guidance. The policies school boards adopt should reflect the educational values of the school corporation. Some policies are required by law and others by common sense.

Payment of ISBA annual dues entitles school corporations to receive regular correspondence about new policies, emerging policies, and important policy updates, as well as access to the “Policy Advisor” column published quarterly in ISBA’s flagship publication, The Journal.
The Association also offers school corporations a premium policy package called Comprehensive Policy Management Services (CPMS).
