Trego's Mountain Ear

So you want to attend a school board meeting?

What should you bring?

• Water bottle (possibly two)
• Packed meal and snack (expect an afternoon meeting to go through dinner)
• Travel Pillow (because that afternoon meeting will certainly approach your child’s bedtime, if it doesn’t quite reach yours)
• Seat Cushion (Did you know that sitting for prolonged periods of time can cause sores? Get up and walk around!)
• Watch (if you want to know for sure that it’s taking forever. Skip this if you’d like to just feel this way. The board room has no clock.)

What to know: As a member of the public, you don’t get to comment unless recognized by the board, and board policy limits your public comment to three minutes.
