Description:  The meeting will now be opened to receive public comment. We value the time and initiative members of the public take to share their thoughts with the Board. The Board’s role during public comment is not to immediately respond, but to listen. If there is follow-up necessary, we will direct our Superintendent to do so. Remember that we all model the way for our students, and we ask that everyone share their thoughts in a respectful way. Should any public comment include complaints regarding a personally identifiable District staff member, the Board chair may direct the speaker to the proper administrative process found in Board policy KL which can be found on the table near the entrance of the room and on the District's website. Anyone who has requested in advance to speak will be called upon by the Board Chair. Once called, they must state their name and address. Please note that speakers will have three minutes to express their thoughts.
