§ 31960 Board Regulation Authority

Key Takeaways

  • •The board can make rules as long as they don't go against the main law.
  • •These rules only start working after the board of supervisors says okay.
  • •The rules were added a long time ago, in 1947.

Example

Imagine your school makes a new rule that students must wear hats on Fridays.

The school can make this rule, but it has to follow the big school laws. The rule only starts after the principal (like the board of supervisors) says it's okay.
