A. OPENING OF MEETING BY PRESIDENT
Description:
We welcome you to a meeting of the Buchanan Community Schools Board of Education. 

All regular meetings have been posted on our district website, in our central office, and in each district school building. Please be sure you have picked up a copy of this evening’s agenda and a Board of Education Inquiry Form if necessary. Our school board members receive the agenda and all supporting documents for reports and action items several days prior to this scheduled meeting, so they can review information, prepare questions or comments, and are ready to participate fully in the discussions and votes that encompass the duties of their office. Board members follow the agenda and review related documents on their devices throughout the duration of the meeting. 

This meeting is a meeting of the Board of Education in public for the purpose of conducting the School District’s business and is not to be considered a public community meeting. 

There is a time for regular public participation during the meeting as indicated in agenda item G. If you wish to make a presentation to the Board during agenda item G, please fill out the Google form located on our district website before item G on the agenda.

Thank you for your support of Buchanan Community Schools!
