        Rationale: 
 
                            Executive/Closed Session may be necessary during this meeting for either: 1) Protection of the public interest; or, 2) The prevention of needless injury to the reputation of an individual, and if the individual has not requested a public meeting. Recognition of Visitors: The Board of Education encourages citizens to take advantage of the opportunity to address the Board at its regular meetings. Such opportunities will ordinarily be limited to the, “Communications from the Public” section of the meeting. When there are several persons who wish to address the Board at a meeting, the Board President shall have the authority to limit the amount of time provided to each speaker. In compliance with Nebraska statute 84-1412 the Open Meetings Act is posted within the meeting room.  |

        Rationale: 
Limits to accept Option Enrollment Requests recommended as follows: 
                            Grades K-3 limit is 38 currently enrolled Grades 4-6 limit is 40 currently enrolled Grades 7-12 limit is 46 currently enrolled These numbers would not currently create a block at any grade level at Freeman. If the enrollment of students moving into our district reaches these recommended limits, the district will not accept NEW option students for that particular grade. This does not affect current option students.  |
