This is the highest level of decisionmaking in the school system. The Board has a number of standing and/or ad hoc advisory committees that advise it on special issues.
The community can also become involved by testifying about any issue during the public comments portion of every Board meeting, at strategic planning forums, and at hearings concerning the budget, facilities, boundary decisions, and other topics.
