Policy: BEA
Regular Board Meetings
Unless otherwise altered by Board action, regular meetings
of the Board shall be held at the building of the School District
on the second Thursday of each month in a handicapped accessible
location, beginning at 7:00 p.m. (with the exception of the
months of July and August).
All regular meetings shall be open to the public and the press.
All changes of regular meetings from normal dates shall be
advertised at least 24 hours prior to the date of the meeting.
Special meetings shall be held at the call of the Chairperson
or upon the written request of at least 40% of the School
Board.
A majority of the Board shall constitute a quorum.
The School Board recognizes that parents and other citizens
and school and community groups are concerned about the quality
of public education.
Since community involvement in the educational process requires
knowledge of that process, it will be the policy of the Board
that all facts and information kept or prepared on the activities
of the public schools, except confidential information as
exempted by law, will be considered public information.
Any citizen may, with proper care, during office hours and
subject to such regulations as the Superintendent may prescribe,
have access to and inspect the public records of the public
schools.
School Board meetings will adjourn no later than 10:00 p.m.
Meetings may be extended by a vote of the Board.
