Policy Guides. At the core of the Policy Maintenance Program are the policy guides, which include hundreds of templates setting forth recommended policy language developed by PSBA to assure that the governmental responsibilities of school entities can be fulfilled in a manner that reflects recommended practices and complies with legal standards and limitations. Assembled together, the policy guides form a comprehensive policy manual addressing all common aspects of school entity operations and responsibilities for which local policies are recommended, and they exist in multiple versions specific to the three standard types of Pennsylvania public school entities (school district, intermediate unit and career and technical school). Built into many policy guides are optional provisions and alternatives among which participants may choose as a means of tailoring policies to local needs and preferences. Further local customization by participants is encouraged and supported by PSBA. Policy guides are updated and revised as deemed appropriate by PSBA to reflect changes in legal mandates and other parameters due to new legislation, regulations, court decisions or non-regulatory guidance pronouncements of state and federal agencies. Policy guides contain footnotes indicating the sources of law necessitating various provisions, with hyperlinks to those sources of law when available online. Participants in the Policy Maintenance Program receive all new and newly-updated policy guides that are published by PSBA in the course of a program year and upon request will be provided with up to ten (10) additional policy guides per program year. The governing board of a school entity that has separately engaged PSBA for a comprehensive policy development service will have before it for adoption a complete set of the most current policy guides customized for that particular school entity. An entity that has separately engaged PSBA for a comprehensive policy review service, based on the need to bring an existing but substantially outdated local policy manual up to date, will be provided all necessary policy guides customized for that particular school entity. The policy development and policy review services are separate fee-based services that are not included in the Policy Maintenance Program or Administrative Regulations Program.

Policy Guides a. The application of these principles is based on the fundamental premises that: (1) Governmental units are responsible for the efficient and effective administration of Federal awards through the application of sound management practices. (2) Governmental units assume responsibility for administering Federal funds in a manner consistent with underlying agreements, program objectives, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. (3) Each governmental unit, in recognition of its own unique combination of staff, facilities, and experience, will have the primary responsibility for employing whatever form of organization and management techniques may be necessary to assure proper and efficient administration of Federal awards. b. Federal agencies should work with States or localities which wish to test alternative mechanisms for paying costs for administering Federal programs. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) encourages Federal agencies to test fee-for-service alternatives as a replacement for current cost-reimbursement payment methods in response to the National Performance Review's (NPR) recommendation. The NPR recommended the fee-for-service approach to reduce the burden associated with maintaining systems for charging administrative costs to Federal programs and preparing and approving cost allocation plans. This approach should also increase incentives for administrative efficiencies and improve outcomes.
