Individuals who wish to speak during an Independent Authority meeting will be invited to do so by the board chair or designee. Speakers are requested to register by completing the sign in sheet if in person, or by indicating their desire to speak through the “chat” function online. Public comment is limited to 30 minutes total; however, the Board Chair may, at her discretion, recognize additional speakers even if they have not been able to pre-register. During the meeting, the board’s rules for public participation apply: Individuals who address the Independent Authority are to abide by direction given by the Chairman, and are to limit their comments to three (3) minutes. It is the practice of the Independent Authority not to address issues pertaining to individual students or specific employees in open session. If you wish to address the Independent Authority on a matter pertaining to a specific student or employee, please submit a letter to the Superintendent so that the matter can be researched and addressed.
