PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AT BOARD MEETINGS
The School Board allows public participation at its meetings. However, the Board reserves the right to restrict or forbid public comment for the purpose of an orderly meeting of the School Board.
There are two opportunities for members of the public to participate at a regular School Board meeting. 1.) Toward the beginning of the agenda, the Board Chair will ask if there are pubic comments on anything listed on the agenda. Typically, depending on the number of people wishing to speak, the Board Chair will attempt to keep the combined total of all public comments less than ten minutes. 2.) Toward the end of the agenda, the Board Chair will ask if there are public comments. Typically, depending on the number of people wishing to speak, the Board Chair will attempt to keep the combined total of all public comments less than ten minutes.
Interruption, outbursts or other interference with the orderly conduct of the School Board business is strictly forbidden. Defamatory or abusive remarks are forbidden. The presiding officer may terminate the speaker’s privilege of address if s/he persists in improper conduct or remarks. At a public meeting of the School Board, no person shall orally initiate charges or complaints against individual employees of the district or challenge instructional materials used in the district.
Public comments should not be construed as a public forum. The School Board will listen to public comments but will not engage in a “conversation” with audience members present. In the event that members of the public possess questions related to the school district practices or policies, the questions should be submitted, in writing, to the office of the Superintendent. A written response will be sent to the respective individual.
No action will be taken on any item not considered a part of the agenda
