Board keeps current meeting cadence, adopts joint meeting topics calendar and plans town halls

After lengthy discussion, the board decided to retain its existing meeting cadence (the option identified as the current schedule) rather than switch to the alternate two‑week split format. Members asked administration to prioritize delivering materials with more lead time so trustees can review presentations before meetings.

Clerk Wynne and administration presented a joint meeting‑topics calendar that sets expected times for recurring presentations (for example, curriculum adoption presentations, progress monitoring, and budget items) so teams can prepare well in advance. The board voted to adopt the calendar as a living document and asked that administration work with commissioners to balance heavier months.

Separately, trustees approved staff‑led planning for a series of board town halls to engage community members (possible quarterly cadence, hosted in schools). Trustees noted Open Meetings Law constraints about quorum and requested planning return with options (for instance, rotating up to three trustees per event or other formats) and an implementation timeline.
