School Board Information

Board meeting agendas, minutes, and supporting documents are available in the school office. Please contact Casey for more information.

Montana law requires school districts and other public agencies to include on the agenda for public meetings an item allowing public comment on any public matter not otherwise specifically listed on the agenda that is within the jurisdiction of the agency.  As has also been the practice of the District, and in accordance with Montana law, if any Board or public representative desires to speak to an item that is specifically listed/identified on the agenda, you will be allowed to do so at the discretion of the Board chairperson when the item comes up for discussion and action.  The public comment portion of the agenda is not the time designated to hear items that are specifically listed/identified on the agenda.

For those individuals who desire to address the Board during the “public comment” portion of the meeting, please sign your name to the sheet located on the table and indicate the general topic on which you will be commenting.   The Board Chairman will call individuals to speak in the order listed on the sheet provided.  The Board would like to remind everyone in attendance that to avoid violations of individual rights of privacy, a member of the public wishing to address the Board during this time will not be allowed to make comments about any student, staff member, or member of the general public during his/her designated time to speak.  In addition the Board will not hear comments on contested cases or other adjudicative proceedings.

By law the District cannot take any action on any matter discussed during the “public comment” portion of the meeting, until such time as the matter is specifically noticed on the agenda, and the public has been allowed the opportunity to comment. 

Board meetings are open to the public, but not a public meeting.
