INFORMATION AND PROPOSALS B-1-a Visitor Comments The school board and administrative staff encourage and appreciate citizen interest in meetings of the board of education. This section of the agenda is designed to hear the views of citizens about their schools and items on the agenda. Persons wishing to address the board may make written requests in advance of the meeting or indicate their name, address and the item which they wish to address on the Visitor Form located along with tonight s agenda materials. Each speaker is asked to address the board at the visitor s podium so the speaker s remarks may be clearly heard. The speaker should give his or her name and address and limit comments to five minutes. The board meeting is being digitally and visually recorded. We provide a time for citizen remarks at every regular meeting. At no time do we allow particular grievances about an employee to be aired. These remarks will be declared to be out of order and will be terminated when they are made about a specific employee. Any such discussion is not allowed in a public meeting, but may be discussed in an executive session at the board s discretion. Board members may ask questions of the speaker for information or clarification and may or may not make comments in response to a speaker s remarks. No board member has the power or authority to act for the board; therefore, no response from an individual board member should be interpreted as an official action. Requests for information about any subject should be made in writing to the board president or superintendent. Requests for information at the board meeting will be referred to the superintendent for review and report to the board. Thank you for your cooperation.
