Code No. 215.1 Board of Directors
Board Meeting Agenda
The tentative agenda for each board meeting stating the topics for discussion and action for the board meeting is part of the public notice of the board meeting. It will be posted and distributed in the manner outlined in board policy, “Meeting Notice.”
Persons wishing to place an item on the board meeting agenda must make a request to the superintendent on the Tuesday prior to the regularly scheduled board meeting. The request must include name, address, telephone number, organization represented, purpose of the presentation, action desired, and pertinent background information. Requests from the public may be added to the tentative agenda at the discretion of the superintendent after consultation with the board president. Requests received after Tuesday will be scheduled for subsequent regular board meeting.
The tentative agenda and supporting documents shall be sent to the board members on the fifth day preceding the next scheduled board meeting. These documents are the private property of the board member.
The board shall take action only on items, other than an item added for good cause, on the tentative agenda posted with the public meeting notice. Items added to the agenda may be discussed or taken under advisement by the board. If an item is added for action for good cause, the minutes of the board meeting shall state the reason why. The board shall exercise this discretionary authority with great care.
It shall be the responsibility of the board president and superintendent to develop the agenda for each school board meeting.
