Monday, November 18, 2024 The doors will open at 6:15pm - Fern Ridge School District Board of Directors

1. Call to Order: Public - 6:30 pm

We have a shared vision in the Fern Ridge School District: Provide excellence for every student so that each will reach their greatest potential. 

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 discussion 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 website.
