How the Manual is Organized
The manual is organized according to the classification system developed by the Educational Policies Services of the National School Boards Association.  The system provides an efficient means of coding, filing and finding policies, regulations and other documents. 

There are 11 major classifications, each bearing an alphabetical code:

Subclassification under each heading is based on logical sequence and alphabetical subcoding.  Each of the 11 major classifications is tabbed.  On the tab page is a table of contents for that section.

How to Find a Policy
Consider where the policy would be filed among the 11 major classifications.  Turn to the tab and table of contents for that section and glance down the listing until you find the term that most closely fits the topic that you are seeking.  Use the code letters given for the term to locate the sheet which will appear in alphabetical order by code within the particular section.  (All pages of the manual are coded in the upper right-hand corner.)
