As you can see, there are a lot of topics covered in school board meetings. These topics range from new facility projects to curriculum changes and testing requirements. While some of these topics may seem straightforward, others can be quite complex.
In contrast, a special board meeting is a meeting that is not scheduled well in advance and is called by someone – authorized either under the law or the organization's bylaws – for a special purpose.
Conversations with other board members, administrators, teachers, parents and others from around the district can and do happen frequently, but remember, they are just conversations. No debate, decision making or votes happen during those conversations.
In addition to specifying the date, time and location of the meeting, special meeting notices should make note of all agenda items. Unless the bylaws indicate something different, board members should only be discussing the business that was stated in the notice for the special meeting.
These are things like defining the rules of governance, e.g., bylaws, policies, recruitment and election of board members. Defining the performance expectations of board members. Hiring, appraising, and setting compensation for the executive director.
It is different from a regular meeting, which is held on a regular schedule. For example, a company may call a special meeting to discuss a major decision, such as a merger or acquisition. A school board may call a special meeting to address a specific issue, such as a budget shortfall.
Typical topics and decisions addressed in board meetings include: Strategic planning: Setting the overall direction and long-term goals of the organization. Financial oversight: Reviewing financial statements, approving budgets, and making investment decisions.
