Attending a
School Commission Meeting
The St. Joseph
School Commission welcomes attendance from the parent and parishioner
community at our meetings. The Commission’s agenda is planned far in
advance and is very full. To ensure that all meetings are conducted in a
fair, orderly and expeditious manner, we’d like to remind you of the
procedures for participating at, or attending the school commission
meetings.
St. Joseph School
Commission Meetings are open to visitors who are affiliated with St. Joseph
School, St. Joseph Parish, Mary, Queen of Peace Parish, Holy Innocents
Parish, or Our Lady of Sorrows Parish.
Visitors are asked to note the following protocols:
(1)
Visitors are
welcome in a non-participatory role without prior communication.
(2)
Visitors are
asked to sit in the seats provided which are positioned separately from the
working table of the commission.
(3)
Any visitor who
would like to speak or comment on an agenda item needs to communicate their
desire to speak before the meeting begins. Visitor comments are limited to a
five-minute presentation. The forum for visitor presentations will be
scheduled after regular commission agenda items are completed.
(4)
Any visitor who
would like to suggest an item to be added to the meeting agenda needs to do
so in writing at least fourteen (14) calendar days in advance of the monthly
commission meeting. All items must relate to commission business. Submit
requests via email to the school principal and school commission president.
The president will contact you with the date and time you have been placed
on the agenda. If the request is a proposed change to school policy,
procedures, etc. you’ll be asked to complete and submit the
proposal form.
(5)
At times, a
closed session is called due to confidential items under discussion,
visitors are asked to respect the call for a closed session.
The St. Joseph School Commission thanks you in advance for
your respect for these procedures.
