Monday, May 20, 2024 The doors to Elmira Elementary will open at 6:15 pm - School Board Meeting

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

We have a shared vision in the Fern Ridge School District: Provide excellence for every student so that each will reach their greatest potential.  We are always happy to have parents and other community members at our meetings.

Thank you to the members of the public who have joined us.  As a reminder, School Board meetings and work sessions are meetings of the Board held in public, providing an opportunity to observe the Board's discussions and actions. 

In an effort to conduct official Board business, we ask that the audience be respectful and refrain from questions, comments and unnecessary noise while the Board conducts the meeting. 

There is an opportunity for citizen comment tonight, and the Board looks forward to hearing from those who signed up.  I will share some reminders when we get to that portion of the meeting. 

Also, please note that all Board meetings are live streamed and posted on the School Board area of the district website.

4. Public Comment: The Fern Ridge School Board encourages public input.  A person wanting to provide public comment will need to complete and submit an Intent to Speak form to the Board secretary by 1:00 pm on the day of the board meeting.  

Public comment is limited to this place on the agenda not to exceed a total of 30 minutes for all commenters.  A person giving public comment is limited to an established time limit of (3) three 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.
