Adoption of "Code of Ethics".
MOTION: Adoption and discussion of the "Code of Ethics" as approved by the New Jersey School Boards Association as follows:
-
I will uphold and enforce all laws, state board rules and regulations
and court orders pertaining to schools. Desired changes should be
brought about only through legal and ethical procedures.
-
I will make decisions in terms of the educational welfare of children
and will strive for public schools which can meet the individual needs
of all children regardless of their ability, race, sex, creed, or social standing.
-
I will confine my board action to policy-making, planning and appraisal,
and I will help to frame policies and plans only after the board has
consulted those who will be affected by them.
-
I will carry out my responsibility, not to administer the schools, but
together with my fellow board members, to see that they are well run.
-
I will recognize that authority rests with the board of education and will
make no personal promises nor take any private action which may
compromise the board.
-
I will refuse to surrender my independent judgment to special interest or
partisan political groups or to use the schools for personal gain or for the
gain of friends.
-
I will hold confidential all matters pertaining to the schools which, if
disclosed, would needlessly injure individuals or the schools. But in all
other matters, I will provide accurate information and, in concert with my
fellow board members, interpret to the staff the aspirations of the community
for its schools.
-
I will vote to appoint the best qualified personnel available after consideration
of the recommendation of the chief administrative officer.
