Waivers POLICY NO: 283

The State Board of Education may grant a waiver of any rule not required by state or federal law to any school district upon written request. The Board will not grant waivers of any rule required by state or federal law. State and federal law includes case law (including consent decrees), statutes, constitutions, and federal regulations.

This school district will seek waivers from the State Board of Education when extenuating circumstances preclude compliance with any rule governing Administration, Uniformity or Thoroughness. The superintendent or designee will prepare and submit any waiver requests to the board of trustees. The board of trustees will review waiver requests on a case-by-case basis, and, if approved, will submit the waiver request to the State Board of Education.
