PUBLIC COMMENTS:
The Board of Education invites public comment in an open forum at the designated time on the meeting agenda to discuss matters under consideration. Each individual speaker is allotted three (3) minutes to speak. The public comment period is not a discussion, so please do no expect the Board to respond to your comments, concerns and/or questions that night. If necessary, the Board may follow up with you during the week, at a future meeting or have the proper staff member get back to you. The Board will listen carefully and value your input. All speakers and visitors must maintain civility and mutual respect. Please address the Board directly, rather than the audience.
