If I don't like the superintendent's decision, can I appeal to the board?

Under the district's governance system, the superintendent's decision is final. However, if you believe that the superintendent violated board policy in the process of making the decision, you may submit an appeal to the board based on the superintendent's alleged policy violations but not the decision itself. If the superintendent made the decision within the confines of board policy, the superintendent's decision stands. If the board finds that the superintendent violated policy, the board may then direct the superintendent to reconsider the decision within the confines of policy.
