OPEN FORUM ANNOUNCEMENT
The Board will now hear comments from those persons who have signed up to
speak. This hearing is for parents, students, and community members to speak to
the board regarding the school district’s federal programs. Each person may speak
for no more than five minutes.
During the hearing, the Board will listen, but it is forbidden by the Texas Open
Meetings Act from discussing any topic raised or making any decision unless that
matter is already on the agenda.
The Board reminds speakers that this hearing is not the time or place to bring the
Board complaints about a particular program or a particular employee. The Board
has adopted specific complaint policies and specific procedures for presenting
those complaints. Those policies require a written complaint, administrative
conferences, and a request that the item be placed on the agenda of a Board
The Board will not entertain complaints or criticisms about individual
employees or other complaints during this hearing. If I, as presiding officer,
determine that a presentation during this hearing is a complaint about an individual
school employee or any other matter, I will respectfully ask that person to stop
speaking and to use the board’s adopted policies and procedure for bringing
complaints or concerns to the board as a matter placed on the agenda of a future
The Board expects that request to be honored and that the person expressing a
complaint will stop when asked. The Board expects all members of the audience to
behave in a polite and orderly fashion during this and all other portions of the
