    MEETING PROCEDURES:

    Persons may attend the board meeting via Zoom webinar or in-person in the district office boardroom (1717 4th St., Santa Monica, CA).

    Public Comments: Public comments on closed session items will be heard prior to closed session.  All remaining public comment on agenda items, except public hearings, will be heard after the Board returns from closed session (public comment for public hearings will be heard when the items are called).  Public comment on non-agenda items will be heard at the end of the Board meeting.  Persons wishing to address the Board of Education on an agenda item must fill out a Request to Speak Card (in-person comment) or Google Form (comment via Zoom).  Speakers must fill out one form per agenda item.  A person may address the Board under "Public Comments for Items Listed on the Agenda" and/or "Public Comments for Items Not Listed on the Agenda" (this second option is for general public comments on topics that are within the Board’s jurisdiction, but do not appear on the agenda).  A person must indicate on the public comment card/form whether they wish to speak for one, two, or three minutes on that item.  Based on the number of people who sign up to speak on a specific item, the Board may decide to reduce the maximum number of minutes each person is allowed to speak on that item.  A person who submits the public comment card/form after the public comment period has already started will be given a maximum of one minute per agenda item they list.  If persons in the boardroom and on Zoom sign up to speak on the same item, the Board will prioritize in-person comments.  Please note that each person will be given a total of six minutes to speak for the entire meeting, including on items listed on agenda and general public comments.  Once the public comment section is over, the Board will no longer accept requests from the public to speak on agenda or non-agenda items.  When giving public comment, members of the public are asked to follow the SMMUSD Civility Policy, the details of which can be found in a grid at the top of each board meeting agenda. 
    Parking Information: Parking for those attending board meetings is now available underground at 1717 Fourth St. in spaces marked, “SMMUSD.”  The code to exit the parking lot will be provided at the board meeting.  
    Simultaneous Interpretation: Persons wishing to hear a board meeting in Spanish can log into the Zoom link (located at the top of an agenda) and select Spanish under the Interpretation button at the bottom of the Zoom screen.  Please use your own headphones if listening to simultaneous interpretation while in the boardroom.
    Meeting Formats: The first board meeting in a month will follow Format A, the second meeting in a month will follow Format B, and in a month in which there is only one meeting, the meeting will follow Format A. 
    Time-certain Items: Those items listed for a specified time (marked in the title of the item) are so noted to give the public an indication of when the Board will hear that item. However, if it is prudent to do so, the Board may adjust the time stamp to complete an item currently on the floor, but will not delay the time stamped item for more than fifteen (15) minutes.

    PROCEDIMIENTOS DE REUNIONES:

    Las personas puede asistir a la reunión  en el seminario web de Zoom o en persona en las oficinas administrativas del distrito (1717 4th St., Santa Mónica, CA).

    Comentarios públicos: Los comentarios públicos sobre asuntos a puerta cerrada serán escuchados antes que inicie dicha reunión. Todos los comentarios públicos restantes sobre asuntos en la agenda, excepto las audiencias públicas, serán escuchados después que la Mesa Directiva regrese de la sesión a puertas cerradas (los comentarios públicos relacionados las audiencias públicas se escucharán cuando se traten dichos asuntos).  Los comentarios públicos de temas no incluidos en la agenda serán escuchados al final de la reunión de la Mesa Directiva. Las personas que deseen dirigirse ante la Mesa Directiva de Educación sobre temas que están incluidos en la agenda, deben completar la Tarjeta de Solicitud para dirigirse ante la Mesa Directiva (comentarios en persona) o en línea Google form (comentario por Zoom). Las personas que deseen hacer comentarios deben llenar una forma por cada asunto en la agenda. Una persona puede dirigirse ante la Mesa Directiva en “Comentarios públicos de asuntos incluidos en la agenda” y/o “Comentarios públicos de asuntos que no están incluidos en la agenda”.  (esta segunda opción es para los comentarios generales públicos para temas sobre los que la Mesa Directiva tiene jurisdicción, pero no se incluyen en la agenda). La persona debe indicar en la tarjeta/forma si desea hablar acerca de dicho asunto durante uno, dos o tres minutos. De acuerdo a la cantidad de personas que se registren para un tema específico, la Mesa Directiva podrá decidir reducir el número máximo de minutos que se le permiten a cada persona para hablar sobre dicho tema. Una persona que entregue la tarjeta/forma después de haber comenzado la parte de comentarios públicos se les permitirá un máximo de un minuto por tema de la agenda que hayan indicado. Si las personas en la sala de conferencias y las que están conectadas vía Zoom se registran para hablar sobre el mismo tema, la Mesa Directiva les dará prioridad a los comentarios realizados en persona. Favor de tomar en cuenta que a cada persona se le permitirá hablar un total de seis minutos durante toda la reunión, que incluye los comentarios de asuntos en la agenda y los comentarios generales públicos. Una vez que haya concluido la parte de los comentarios públicos, la Mesa Directiva no aceptará más solicitudes del público para hablar sobre asuntos que están o no están incluidos en la agenda. Se solicita a las personas del público que cuando hagan un comentario público cumplan con las Política de Civilidad del SMMUSD, cuyos detalles están disponible en el recuadro en la parte superior de la agenda de cada reunión de la Mesa Directiva.
    ESTACIONAMIENTO: El estacionamiento para quienes asisten a las reuniones de la reunión de la mesa directiva ahora está disponible bajo tierra en 1717 Fourth St. en los espacios marcados "SMMUSD". El código para salir del estacionamiento se proporcionará en la reunión de la mesa directiva.  
    Interpretación simultánea: Las personas que deseen escuchar una reunión de la mesa directiva en español pueden iniciar la sesión por medio del enlace de Zoom (ubicado en la parte superior de una agenda) y seleccionar español en el botón de Interpretación en la parte inferior de la pantalla de Zoom.  Utilice sus propios auriculares si escucha interpretación simultánea mientras está en la sala de juntas.
    Formato de reuniónes: La primera reunión de la mesa directiva del mes seguirá el formato A, la segunda reunión del mes seguirá el formato B, y en un mes en el que solo haya una reunión, se seguirá el formato híbrido. 
    Temas de horario determinado: Los temas enumerados para un horario específico (marcados en el título del tema) se anotan para dar al público una indicación de cuándo la mesa directiva abordará ese tema. Sin embargo, si es prudente hacerlo, la mesa directiva puede modificar el horario para completar un tema que actualmente está siendo tratado, pero no retrasará el tema con un horario determinado por más de quince (15) minutos.
