Addressing
the
Board
of
Education
Policy on Public Participation at Board
Meetings
An opportunity for
visitors to address the board of education is provided
during the two "Public Comment" portions of the
meeting. The Board of Education encourages public
participation at its meetings and recognizes its
responsibility to hear public comment.
Prior to addressing the
board, individuals must first notify District Clerk Carol
Kelley and complete a sign-up form before the start of the
meeting. If you know well in advance that you would like to
address the board, you may contact the District Clerk at
456-6200, ext. 3125, to receive and then return the sign-up
form in order to be included on the agenda.
In general, comments
should not exceed three to four minutes and should relate to
school matters. Although the Board of Education welcomes
comments about programs offered by the district and the
efforts of its staff, the discussion of matters related to
specific individuals is expressly prohibited. Persons who
desire to speak to the board about such matters should
request an Executive Session in a letter written to the
Board President, briefly outlining the issue to be
discussed. Granting such requests will be at the discretion
of the board.
