1. CALL TO ORDER, PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE, PLEDGE TO THE TEXAS FLAG, AND INSPIRATIONAL MOMENT
This is a meeting of the Board of Trustees being held in front of the public, which is not the same as a public hearing or meeting for the public. The Board and the District appreciate the interest of our constituents and welcome you at our meetings; however, in our Board of Trustee meetings, only the board members and members of the administration who are providing information to the Board should be speaking during the course of the meeting, except for the portion of the meeting designated for public input. Should any audience members have a question during the course of the meeting, please do not interrupt the meeting or interject your question or comment in the middle of the meeting; instead, please raise your question or concerns with an appropriate person at the conclusion of the meeting so that the Board can conduct our Board-business without interruption. |
