Each month the Fulton County Board of Education schedules several public meetings to discuss educational issues and act on items requiring Board approval. Workshops give the Board and public an opportunity to focus in-depth on topics of interest. The work session serves primarily to present information about agenda items requiring Board approval. The Board meeting then is held the following week for the items to be approved.
All School Board meetings can be watched live from a computer screen through videostreaming technology used by the Fulton County School System. Viewers must have special viewing software, such as Windows Media Player or RealPlayer, loaded on their computer to view live meetings or archived files.
All meetings are advertised in advance and publicized through local media and the school system web site. They are open to the public unless designated as Executive Session, where the School Board must convene in private to discuss land, legal, and/or personnel items.
** August 18 meeting will begin at 3 p.m. for executive session, 4 p.m. for a millage hearing, 4:30 p.m. for adoption of the FY10 millage rate and 4:35 p.m. for the regular board meeting. Recognitions and public comment begin at their regularly scheduled time of 6:30 p.m.
