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 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.
