On June 25, 1998, the Provisional Council of the English Montreal School Board (EMSB) adopted a resolution
(#98-06-25-11) transferring the existing policies and procedures of The Protestant School Board of Greater Montreal (PSBGM) to the
EMSB to remain in force until such time as new policies and procedures were developed to replace them.
Since that time, the policy manual has undergone considerable revision and a number of new policies have been developed which
reflect the specific orientations and mission of the English Montreal School Board. This process of revision and development is still
in progress. The present manual reflects the current state of development up to December 31, 2003, and will have to be maintained
and updated on a regular basis as new policies continue to be developed.
Each policy has been formatted to indicate the department responsible for its development ("origin"), the resolution number, which
indicates the date and item number of its adoption ("authority") and any pertinent laws, other policies, guidelines, collective
agreements, etc., to which the policy refers ("references"). Some, but not all, policies are accompanied by a set of procedures.
