School board agenda for Tuesday, November 8
Very brief meeting scheduled for this Tuesday, in Room 113, since the board room is being used an election polling place. But feel free to chime in with any comments on the agenda.
I just briefly heard Botchway speaking to it on KCJJ and I am shocked at the comments he made concerning the police. I guess the ICCSD relationship with the local police is not so good either and it is obvious how Botchway feels about the police in general based on his comments.
Chris - I know the boards meeting are available live on public access and eventually uploaded to the iccsd website to view. Is there a reason that there couldn't be a live online stream of the school board meetings? They are already recording them and playing them live on tv and I would be surprised if the iccsd doesn't already have the capability to live stream these meetings. Many of us can't get the public access channel. I currently follow the North Corridor Parents twitter to get real time information if I am unable to attend the meeting in person. Thank you.
The simplest way to comment is to choose "Name/URL" in the drop-down box, then just type in whatever screen name you'd like to use. You can leave the URL field blank. I'd prefer that people use screen names rather than the "Anonymous" option, because it can get too hard to tell the various anonymous commenters apart in any given thread.
If you don't see your comment appear right away, send it again. It might have gotten caught in the spam filter. If I see the same comment come in twice, I'll know to check the filter.
Why are the all state musicians listed on the agenda?
