Public Comment will be into two portions, agenda comments and general comments.
Agenda comments will take place at the start of the meeting, for members of the public wishing to speak on items appearing on that meeting’s agenda.
General comments for people wishing to speak on items not appearing on that meeting’s agenda but relevant to the business of the Board or operation of the District, will take place after action has been taken on all agenda items, but prior to Board Member Comments.
Priority will be given in speaking order to residents of Sarasota County, Parents/Guardians of a current Sarasota County Schools student, current students of Sarasota County Schools, and employees of Sarasota County Schools.
