Consultants

The Board recognizes the need for the use of consultants as a means of providing the schools with specialized services not normally required on a continuing basis.

Funds will be made available to attract authorities in the various fields. However, the use of consultants from outside the school system who promote a particular commercial product or service is discouraged. When such consultants are used, it should be made clear to them that they are to perform as consultants, not as salesmen, and not in violation of the Controversial Issues Policy or the Advertising Policy.
