Citizen Participation at Northwestern Board of Education Meetings
Remember that the Board of Education Meetings are a meetings of the Board to conduct official business. There is no requirement for holding public participation. It is only because of our efforts at transparency, communication, and desiring feedback that public participation is encouraged. Appropriate demeanor and due respect are expected at Board of Education Meetings at all times.
Items for the Agenda:
If a citizen wishes to submit/discuss an item of business for a meeting, it is desired that this item be given to the Superintendent or President on the Wednesday preceding the Board meeting. This is the day that agendas are developed. This item should be submitted in writing.
Addressing Items on the Agenda
If a citizen wishes to address an item on the agenda, a request to be recognized should be made during the “guest” portion of the agenda.
