The public is welcome to attend Board meetings the second and fourth Wednesday of each month. Please consult the agenda for each meeting's starting time. Additional meetings are scheduled as necessary. See the schedule above for details. Meetings are held in City Council Chambers, City Hall, 100 Santa Rosa Avenue. Regular meetings are televised on local cable channel 27 and re-broadcast the following Saturday at 7:00 pm and again Sunday at 9:00 am.
The public is invited to comment on items being considered for action by the Board before the item is voted upon. There is also an opportunity at each meeting for members of the public to address the Board on topics not covered on the agenda.
The Board Meeting agenda is prepared about two weeks before each Board meeting. A copy is generally available in the Superintendent's Office on the Friday before each meeting and a link is provided above. Members of the public may request that items be included on the agenda. Such requests should be in writing and addressed to the Office of the Superintendent.
The Board will also hold a Closed Session during most meetings. This portion of the meeting is not open to the public. At this time, the Board may discuss only items allowed to be considered in Closed Session such as personnel matters, negotiations, student discipline, property matters and pending litigation.
Minutes are kept of all Board meetings, recording actions taken by the Board. Once adopted, these minutes are public records and available for inspection in the Superintendent's Office.
