    Adopted on October 9, 2018

    Effective October 9, 2018

    The Board of Education recognizes that it is essential for County and employee accountability for each staff member to be fully aware of the duties and responsibilities of his/her position. Job descriptions document and describe the essential functions for professional and service staff positions and thereby promote organizational effectiveness and efficiency.

    The job description for the position of Superintendent, who reports directly to this Board, shall be defined as a policy of the Board.

    All other job descriptions shall be defined as such and will be originated and maintained by the Superintendent. Job descriptions shall be made available to all employees upon request and shall be contained within each notice of opening.

    Job descriptions shall be brief, factual, and, wherever possible, generically descriptive of similar jobs. Job descriptions shall identify the immediate supervisor of the employee in the position, and no employee shall have more than one immediate supervisor.

    The Board further recognizes that the Superintendent may find it necessary to revise job descriptions from time-to-time.

    During the revision of a job description, the Superintendent may seek input from individuals who hold that position; however, their input may or may not be reflected when the revision of said job description is completed.

    Following the revision of a job description, the revised job description shall be made available to all employees in a timely manner.
