Common use of Board Responsibility Clause in Contracts

Board Responsibility. It is cognizant of Ohio law which specifies that the Board has the responsibility and the final authority to make policy decisions and to administer its schools, exercising in the process the best possible management of these responsibilities as entrusted to it by the school community, including the most astute use of that same community’s school funds. The Board and the Association recognize the value of implementing the practices of Site- Based Management. To support that process, it is recognized that every effort should be made to move decisions to the building level, specifically within the scope of Building Leadership Teams where such teams have been established.
