Divisional Policies, Procedural By-Laws, and Committees Terms of Reference
This system is contained in 12 sections, as follows:
Section A: Foundations and Basic Commitments
Section B: School Board Governance and Operations
Section C: General School Administration
Section F: Facilities Planning and Development
Section K: School-Community-Home Relations
Section L: Education Agency Relations
Each section has its own family of subcategories - codes that are accompanied by descriptor terms that provide suggested titles for policy statements. The NEPN classification system provides a comprehensive list of policy codes, but its letter coding can be easily customized when a division needs more detailed codes in any specific area. Supported by The National School Board Association, a not-for-profit federation of state associations of school boards across the United States, the system is commonly utilized by school boards throughout Canada.
