Board Meetings

Public Participation Procedure

The purpose of a school board meeting is to consider and conduct the business of the school system. All meetings of the Hart County Board of Education are open to the public, and an opportunity for public comment is provided on each meeting agenda. Any citizen wishing to address the Board may be placed on the agenda as follows:

1. A request to speak to the Board must be made at least 24 hours in advance of the meeting. A form is available in the Superintendent’s office or on the system’s website. 

2. If a need occurs and time does not permit the receipt of a written request, a call may be made to the Superintendent. Superintendent will then arrange the next available date to speak with the board.

Before requesting to address the Board, questions, and concerns that involve instruction, discipline, transportation, and personnel may be solved by following a simple step-by-step process: At a minimum, persons should have contacted the Teacher and/or the Principal.

*Teacher

*Principal

*Central Office Administrator

*Assistant Superintendent

*Superintendent

If several individuals wish to address the Board concerning the same matter, the Board chair may ask that a spokesperson for each side of an issue be selected to speak.

**All public participation items should be kept to less than three minutes.
