1. Call to Order and Flag Salute: Public - 6:30 p.m.

2. Visitors: The Fern Ridge School Board encourages public input.  Comments on non-agenda items may be presented at this time.  Individuals are asked to limit their comments to three (3) minutes.  While speakers may during public meetings offer objective criticism of school operations and programs, the Board will not hear personal complaints concerning district personnel nor against any person connected with the school system.  Please state your name and address. If speaking for an organization, state the name of the organization. The Board reserves the right to refer the matter to the administration.  In addition the board would like the public to know that they strive to be paperless and so visitors may see board members engaging with personal electronic devices at their tables. This is because they are accessing the notes and agendas that are relevant to the current meeting.
