11. CONSENT AGENDA
Description:
A consent agenda is a practice by which regular and non-controversial board action items are organized apart from the rest of the agenda and approved as a group. This includes all of the business items that require formal board approval and yet because they are not controversial, there is no need for board discussion before taking a vote. Items may be on the consent agenda only if all board members agree. Any board member, for any reason, may remove a consent agenda item and place it on the regular agenda for the board meeting.

14. SPECIAL RECOGNITION
Description:

The Association of Alaska School Boards Board of Directors has declared February to be School Board Appreciation Month - a special time to honor and recognize the dedication of our local school board members.

School boards play a pivotal role in a representative democracy, shaping policies that directly impact our children’s future. However, their responsibilities often go unnoticed. As citizen advocates, they navigate complex challenges, making critical decisions that affect our schools and communities.

We invite all Alaskans to acknowledge the invaluable contributions of these public servants. Their commitment to education enriches our lives and shapes the next generation.

Thank you for your unwavering support and dedication to education.
