a) COMMUNITY INPUT FOR AGENDIZED ITEMS The Board of Education values the perspectives and participation of our community members. Public comment provides an important opportunity for individuals to share their views on district matters. The Board encourages comments, feedback, and input from all voices in the community, including those who may have differing opinions and perspectives. The California Office of the Attorney General asked us to share that, in their view, matters pertaining to specific, identifiable students, or any group of students, should remain private to the extent possible. If you have a complaint about an employee or a student matter, please utilize the appropriate complaint procedure, contact Dr. Rudy Wilson, Assistant Superintendent of Compliance, who can assist you with filing any such complaint. As a reminder, not all speech is free from consequence and since this is the Board’s meeting in public, where minors may be present, we encourage all participants to conduct themselves in a civilized, non-threatening manner. Thank you for your cooperation and for contributing to a civil and student-focused discussion. Members of the public may address the Board on matters within its jurisdiction by submitting a completed Registration Card to the Clerk or designated staff member prior to the start of public comments on agenda items.
