Preamble to Policies of the Falcon Board of Education

Our mission is to provide the learning opportunities and instruction necessary to produce educated productive citizens, knowledgeable about our government, our history, and academically prepared to contribute to our community, nation and world.

The District’s greatest assets are dedicated teachers and supportive families. The District acknowledges the primacy of the family as the fundamental authority in the lives of its children.

School District 49 is run by the parents and patrons of the district by electing 5 citizen directors, who hire a full time superintendent to carry out their directives. Each director before taking office, has promised to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America, and the Constitution of the State of Colorado.

We place, in part, the words of our state constitution at the head of our board policies, because from it originates the authority of the citizens who serve as said directors of the Falcon school district.

Constitution  of the State of Colorado –

Section 15. School Districts ­ Board of Education.

"Said directors shall have control of instruction in the public schools of their respective districts. 

“Therefore, no action, resolution, or policy of the board shall circumvent, dilute or negate the powers and responsibilities given to the Falcon Board of Education by the Colorado State Constitution. Any policy contained herein which is or may be interpreted to do so in whole or in part, is hereby rendered null and void and waived in any part which may violate this policy."
