5 Tips to Conduct a School Board Meeting Enforce School Board Meeting Policies. School boards usually contain policies to guide each board meeting. Invest in Meeting Management Software. Distribute Meeting Agenda. Collaborate with Board Members. Distribute Post-Meeting Action Items.
When called, stand and face/speak to the Board members. Do not turn and speak to the audience. State your name and keep your comments as concise as possible (generally three minutes). Speakers are expected to treat others with respect, confining their remarks to School District issues.
Introduce yourself and other speakers at the start of the meeting. If it is a small meeting, ask everyone to introduce themselves. Sometimes it works well to get people to say a bit more about themselves as part of the introductions. Tell people what the meeting is about.
Starting the Meeting: ``Good (morning/afternoon), everyone. Thank you for joining us today. I'd like to welcome you to this meeting. Our agenda includes (briefly outline the agenda items). Let's begin with our first topic.''
The chair bangs the gavel and calls the meeting to order, noting whether there is a quorum or not. Very simply, they should say: “This meeting of the board of COMPANY is called to order at TIME AND DATE and a quorum IS/ISN'T present.”
5 tips for opening a board meeting: Allow time for members to get settled and focused. Provide a way for members to share what's weighing on their minds. Include time for socializing. Clarify each person's specific role for the meeting. Take time to formally review and approve the agenda.
Also called “business” or “regular” meetings, School Board meetings include two public comment opportunities; one for specific items listed on the agenda and another for general comment. Board Meetings are generally held in the Large Group Instruction Room (LGI) in the High School.
A board meeting agenda should begin with a call to order, welcoming remarks, and the gathering's objectives. The chairperson covers basic information (date, time, location), introduces the board, and calls the meeting to order—or to start.
Most board meeting agendas follow a classic meeting structure: Calling meeting to order – ensure you have quorum. Approve the agenda and prior board meeting minutes. Executive and committee reports – allow 25% of time here for key topic discussion. Old/new/other business. Close the meeting and adjourn.
