SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS
School Board Meetings are held the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month during the regular school year.
Currently, these meeting have moved to a hybrid model with the school board and some administrators in-person and the community attending virtually via Zoom. If you would like to attend a meeting via phone or computer, please contact Georgia Mashayekh prior to 2:00pm on the day of a scheduled meeting to learn how to connect.
Because of the format of the video meetings, public comments and questions for the School Board should be submitted to Georgia Mashayekh before 2:00 pm on scheduled meeting days.
If you need the board meeting agendas translated, or in a different accessible format, please contact Georgia Mashayekh.
