In accordance with Board Policy 0410, the Board will hold its regular meeting on the second Tuesday of each month with executive session at 4:30 p.m. and regular session at 5:30 p.m. in the Board of Education Office, 1002 Virginia, Sikeston, Missouri, unless otherwise specified in the publicized notice of the meeting.

In accordance with Board Policy 0440, notice of all Board meetings shall be given at least 24 hours in advance of the meeting, exclusive of weekends and holidays when school is closed, unless for good cause such notice is impossible or impractical, in which case as much notice as is reasonably possible shall be given.

This notice shall be posted on a bulletin board or other easily accessible public place clearly designated for that purpose at the principal office of the Board or, if no such office exists, at the building where the meeting will be held. Public notice of an open meeting will include the time, date and place and a tentative agenda advising the public of the matters to be considered.

Public Comment Guidelines

In accordance with Board Policy and Regulation 0412, any member of the public may address the Board of Education at a regular monthly Board meeting. The following guidelines will govern such comments:

The period of public comments at the regular monthly Board meeting will not exceed 15 minutes.
Individuals who wish to speak must sign up before the president calls the meeting to order. A sign-up sheet will be provided. Interested parties will provide their names and a brief description of their topics.
Individuals may speak no more than three minutes and may not speak more than once during the period for public comments.
If more than two people sign up to address the Board on the same topic, the Board may require these people to select a spokesperson. In this event, the spokesperson will be allowed five minutes to speak.
