Our Public Comment period is for members of the public to address the board. Up to three speakers may sign up in advance by contacting the Principal, no earlier than five days in advance of the meeting, and no later than 24 hours prior to the start of the meeting. The remaining slots may be filled by speakers who place their name on a sign-in sheet at the meeting one-half hour before the meeting begins. Speakers will be allotted two minutes and must stop speaking promptly when signaled. The board will listen, but may not directly respond to any comments. Our meetings are open to the public and public record. As such, if your comment is about a private matter, please contact the board via email, or speak to the board chair privately.
