An agenda with appropriate enclosures will be prepared and delivered or mailed to schools and to each Board member by the superintendent. These should reach the members of the Board sufficiently in advance of the meeting to allow adequate time for study and review.
The agenda for each regular and special meeting shall be posed at the administrative office at least 24 hours prior to the time of said meeting. Action on any item can only take place with items on the agenda as published. These provisions do not preclude the taking of testimony at regularly scheduled meetings on matters not on the agenda, which any member of the public may wish to bring before the board, provided that no action is taken by the Board on such matters at the same meeting at which such testimony is taken.
Individuals or groups who wish to place an item on the agenda should do so by contacting the Board’s secretary. Requests should include name, address, phone number, organization represented, purpose of the presentation, and pertinent background information. To be included on the regular meeting agenda, requests must be received by the superintendent not later than twenty-four (24) hours prior to the meeting.
