Architects employed by the Board shall be expected to plan for utility, simplicity of design, sound economics, including low long-range maintenance costs and insurance rates, high educational utility, flexibility and energy conservation.

 

It shall be the responsibility of the Board and Superintendent to develop and implement plans for the school system which shall meet the future educational requirements of the community.  The Board shall make decisions based on long-range building plans and accreditation needs which shall be implemented over the years to meet the school systems requirements.
