The public is invited and encouraged to attend Board of Education meetings. Business meetings are normally held the second Wednesdays of each month and are rotated among the District's schools during the school year and are normally held in the School Service Center during school holidays and vacations. Committee of the Whole meetings are held on the fourth Wednesday of most months at the School Service Center.

The superintendent and board president plan the meeting agenda at least a week before the meeting. Documents pertaining to items on the agenda, along with information and recommendations from the superintendent, are delivered to Board Members electronically several days before the meeting. This procedure gives members the necessary time to review agenda items and come to the meeting prepared to conduct District business. All non-confidential materials are available to the public through the web site under the Electronic School Board tab.

The Illinois Open Meetings Act requires each public body to give public notice of its schedule of dates, times and places for regular meetings at the beginning of each calendar or fiscal year and to make the schedule generally available. All regular meetings and Committee of the Whole meetings begin at 7:00 p.m. 

In accordance with Board Policy 2.230, members of the public wishing to offer public comment have the opportunity to do so. A public comment sign-up sheet will be available until 7:00 p.m. at the meeting site. Board Meetings are available for viewing via live-stream on the District’s YouTube channel.

Per Board Policy, we will allocate 30 minutes for public comments, and comments on any one subject may be limited to 20 minutes. The Board may shorten the time allocation for each person to less than 3 minutes to allow the maximum number of people the opportunity to speak. To preserve confidentiality, the Board and its President request that items relating to either personnel or students be provided to the Board privately or in writing for consideration in a future closed session, if necessary.

District 200 residents are invited and welcome to attend meetings of the District 200 Board of Education. The Board of Education has developed and adopted Principles of Operation to guide its work. The principles were modified in December 2018 and can be accessed here.

May the public comment? 

Public comments on issues related to agenda and non-agenda items are invited at the beginning of each board meeting. If citizens want to address the Board, we ask you to sign in at the table located near the entrance to the meeting room by the start of the meeting. The Board requests that comments be limited to three minutes. Per Board Policy 2:230, based on the number of individuals signed up to speak, the time allocated for each person to speak may be shortened to two minutes to provide the maximum number of people an opportunity to speak.  While the Board appreciates all questions and comments, it is not prepared to respond to them at the meeting. 

Who plans the meetings? 

The superintendent and board president plan the meeting agenda at least one week before the meeting. Documents pertaining to items on the agenda, along with information and recommendations from the superintendent, are delivered electronically to Board Members several days before the meeting. This procedure gives members the necessary time to review agenda items and come to the meeting prepared to conduct District business.  All non-confidential materials are available to the public through the web site under the Electronic School Board tab. 

Who attends the meetings? 

The Superintendent sits at the Board table during the meeting to advise and assist the Board. Other resource people who normally attend the meetings are the Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction, the Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources, the Assistant Superintendent for Student Services, the Assistant Superintendent for Business Operations, the Assistant Superintendent of Operations, the Executive Director of Technology, the Director of Community Engagement & Communications, and the Secretary to the Superintendent.
