“Empowering and educating confident individuals to achieve their unique potential.” WALL TOWNSHIP PUBLIC SCHOOLS BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING Tuesday, September 24, 2019 Wall Intermediate School 6:30 p.m. Meeting Statement to Public Often times it may appear to the public that the Board of Education takes action with very little comment and in many cases by unanimous vote. Before a matter is placed on the agenda at a public meeting, the administration has thoroughly reviewed the matter with the Superintendent of Schools. If the Superintendent of Schools is satisfied that the matter is ready to be presented to the Board of Education, it is then referred to the appropriate Board committee. The members of the Board committee work with the administration and the Superintendent of Schools to assure that the members fully understand the matter. When the committee is satisfied with the matter, it is presented to the full Board of Education for review before any final action is taken. Only then is it placed on the agenda for action at a public meeting. In rare instances, matters are presented to the Board of Education for discussion at the same meeting that final action may be taken. Workshop Session 1. Call to Order 2. Flag Salute 3.
