Public participation is a time for community members and District employees to express a point of view and/or ask questions, not to debate an issue. Interrogation of District employees, the Superintendent, or the Board of Education will not be permitted, nor will any comment from individual Board members in response to statements made.  Consistent with District policy and practice, the Superintendent or administrative staff may follow up with individual speakers after the meeting to address any comments and/or questions.  There will be a sign-up sheet for the public to identify their name, address, phone number, name of organization (if any), and a brief description of the topic to be addressed. When called to speak by the Board President, all speakers should use the podium to address the Board and are required to conduct themselves with respect and civility toward others at all times.  Consistent with Board Policy 8:30, no speaker may make statements that threaten, harass, and/or intimidate staff members, Board members, or any other person. Comments are limited to 3 minutes for an overall maximum of one hour and/or 20 minutes for any one subject (See Board Policy 2:230).
