Meeting: April 2, 2025 at 7:00 PM - Regular Board of Education Meeting

I. Call to Order and Welcome
:
II. Chairperson's Report (5 min.)
Rationale:
Ms. Monica Logan, Board Chair, will share remarks.
:
III. Awards and Recognition
:
IV. Public Comment (20 min.)
Rationale:
Granby community engagement and attendance at Board of Education public meetings is welcomed and encouraged.  As is our custom, the Board views Public Comment as an opportunity for members of the public to share their comments and concerns with the Board, and Board members will not be responding to comments or engaging in a dialog. As it deems appropriate, the Board may place such matters on the agenda for future meetings for discussion in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act.
 
Procedurally, public remarks will be limited to 5 minutes and speakers will be asked to identify themselves by name and address. We expect comments to be respectful and civil in tone, and we do not permit name-calling, raised voices, personal attacks or vulgarity. 
 
Lastly, we note that the Superintendent is responsible for student and personnel matters. No speaker will be permitted to use public comment to bring complaints against any teacher, student or staff member or to discuss student matters, which are confidential. Therefore, the use of student, teacher or staff names is not permitted. Any such complaints or concerns should be directed to the Superintendent and her team.
