January 23, 2025 at 7:00 PM - Weston Board of Education Special Meeting (Public Forum #2 with Administration on Budget Request)

I. CALL TO ORDER, VERIFICATON OF QUORUM

II. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE

II.A. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.

III. PUBLIC FORUM #2: PUBLIC COMMENT

The Board welcomes the opportunity to hear from members of the public about matters concerning Weston Public Schools. Public comment is an important chance for the Board to receive input and feedback from our school community. We listen attentively to all comments shared.

While we value and pay close attention to public comment, it is our practice not to respond substantively, or sometimes at all, during public comment. There are several reasons for this:

First, engaging in a discussion on non-agenda items could violate the Board’s obligations to comply with the Freedom of Information Act.

Second, the Board or the administration may not be prepared to discuss certain matters raised in the first instance by a public comment. 

Third, the Board develops its meeting agenda carefully to ensure that the Board addresses matters that are pressing or relevant at the time of the meeting.

We encourage members of the public with specific questions, concerns, or complaints about our schools to reach out directly to Superintendent Barbiero. You may also email the Board at our email address, boardofeducation@westonps.org.
