When addressing the Board, please respect the confidentiality and safety of our students and school district personnel.

Public comment represents the voice and opinion of the speaker. There will be no feedback from the board members during the meeting, but follow-up will be provided by an administrator as appropriate. Although this is not required, it is helpful for the Board to know whether the comments and concerns we hear are being raised by residents, so we ask that you state if you live in the district and if you currently have children in our schools. http://board.ipsd.org/Uploads/Policies/Section%202/2230.pdf File Attachments 5.
