BEDA:   NOTIFICATION OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE MEETINGS

It shall be the policy of the School Committee to announce all meetings publicly.  Except in the event of rare emergencies, such announcement will be made by the Superintendent/designee in ample time to allow public attendance and shall be disseminated in a manner reasonably calculated to notify the general public.

Whenever possible, School Committee members shall receive notice of special meetings and  emergency meetings at least 12 hours in advance.  Such notice shall include the date, time, location and purpose of the meeting.  The Superintendent/designee shall, whenever practicable, notify local representatives of the media by the same or faster means as used to notify School Committee members.

Notice of regular and special School Committee meetings, and if practicable, emergency meetings, will be posted at the Superintendent’s Office, in each school, and on the Kittery School District’s website.
