YET ANOTHER SPECIAL SCHOOL BOARD MEETING THIS WEEK

The Board of Education will hold yet another special board meeting this week, marking the fifth time in the past two months the board has met and the third special session in that time.

A notice posted on the district website Monday indicates only that the meeting is set for 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 30, and is to be held at South Orange Middle School.

As of Tuesday morning, no agenda had been released or posted and a notice had been sent to some media after an inquiry. The notice (below) states only that the board will meet at 7 p.m. in closed session first to discuss "personnel matters to be announced at a later date." It adds that a public meeting will begin at 7:30 pm. where action will be taken.

It makes no mention of what that action will be. There is also no indication if a public comment will be held as required by law. And no explanation why the meeting must be held now rather than included in the next regular meeting set for December 19.

You may recall the last special session, held last week, did not initially include a public comment portion and one was only held later in the meeting after concerns were raised by board member Johanna Wright.

Wednesday night's meeting also marks the sixth time a special board meeting has been held since July. 

UPDATE: Agenda posted HERE late Tuesday.
