Resolutions adopted by the Assembly round out the TASB Legislative Program. The latter is an outgrowth of an intensive, statewide grassroots process that provides every school district an opportunity to shape TASB's biennial legislative agenda. The current Legislative Program was adopted by the TASB Board in August 2000 and continues in force until July 2002, when an updated program will be adopted.
Resolutions have a life of only one year.
The TASB Bylaws set July 1 as the deadline for submitting resolutions. Resolutions submitted after that date will be considered only on an emergency basis. Emergencies are defined not by the seriousness of the subject matter but by whether the resolution is triggered by an event occurring after the deadline for submission. Each resolution submitted after the deadline must be accompanied by a statement defining the nature of the emergency. Each resolution adopted by your board should be submitted on the Resolution Form .
