400: Audience Communications

On behalf of fellow Board members, at this time I would like to invite any member of the audience (who have contacted the Superintendent at least five days before this meeting) to speak with comments about items of interest or concern that do not appear on tonight’s agenda.  Please begin by stating your name and address.  It would be appreciated if you would limit your comments to 5 minutes so we can keep the meeting moving in a timely fashion and allow others an opportunity to address other issues of importance to them.  We ask you to remember that Iowa law prohibits us from discussing specific employees or their job performance. It is important to remember that any statements made can jeopardize the Board and any future action that could be taken relating to personnel by the Board and jeopardize the individual making the statement.  Any concerns relating to personnel must be taken to administration and under law the Board only acts on recommendations from administration.   Thanks for your support of our school district.
