Policies
The Simcoe County District School Board recognizes that policies provide the basis upon which the decisions necessary for the day-to-day operation of the system are made. An established development and review process ensures that policies which clearly reflect the intent of the Board are developed with consistency and thoroughness and are adapted to changing circumstances. The Board may decide by majority decision to rescind a policy, or to suspend a policy for a specific or indeterminate period of time. All policies below are in PDF format.
Our policies are organized into the following sections:
1000 General
2000 Management
3000 Personnel
4000 Program
