Welcome to Glenwood CSD Board/Policy Website

Welcome to the Glenwood CSD Board/Policy Site.

We are grateful for your interest in the Glenwood Community School District. Learn more at www.glenwoodschools.org.

 

MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the Glenwood Community School District is to develop in all students the knowledge and competencies required of responsible citizens in a global society. More details on the Mission and Vision can be found on the Glenwood Community School District Website.

 

MEETINGS

The Board of Education typically meets twice per month (View District Calendar). Special meetings are also called when necessary.

All meeting notices and board agendas are posted in advance, here on our website. Special provisions apply in the case of an emergency meeting.

Minutes are recorded by the board secretary and represent official actions taken by the board, but do not include verbatim transcripts of conversations and discussions from each meeting. Minutes are posted here, on our website.

 

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION

The public is welcome to attend School Board meetings, workshops and public hearings. Members of the public may participate in regular School Board meetings by speaking during the Public Forum. Before the meeting is called to order, members of the public may sign up to speak during the Public Forum period. The Public Forum sign up cards are located on a table next to the school board agendas. During the Public Forum side, you will be asked to stand and state your name for the record before sharing your thoughts. Although a timer is not used, please limit your comments to approximately three minutes.
 
If your concern involves personnel or other individuals, the board encourages you to follow the district's communication channel because speaking at a public meeting about a person may be unlawful. Typically, the communication channel involves talking with the individual first, followed by the principal, and then the superintendent. If a personnel or non-personnel issue is not resolved to your satisfaction, then you may request that it be placed on a future board agenda by either contacting the superintendent or any school board member.
 

The School Board takes into consideration comments made by the public at meetings and hearings. Questions, concerns and requests directed to the board will usually be deferred pending administrative and board consideration.
