- Travel procedures to reflect the use of purchasing cards (P-cards).
- Adjusted timetable for submitting individual high school athletic budgets for approval to align with the purchasing department deadlines.
- Adjustment to the fee schedules to fairly compensate game personnel.
- Standards for awarding athletic letters to include a character component.
- Changes to the cheerleading policy to reflect it's status as an official sport in the state of Florida.
- Changes to the practice policy to align with current Florida High School Athletic Association policy.
The revisions ensure that the district athletic program procedures are consistent with state laws as well as bylaws of the Florida High School Athletic Association. Items to be deleted are noted with a strikethrough, items in red indicated the proposed changes.
The entire updated Athletic Guidebook of Procedures is available in the School Board office for review.
