1. Sargent Public Schools Board of Education Information

More Information: The meeting agenda will be kept current and available for public inspection at the Superintendent's Office during regular working hours. 

District Vision/Mission: The Board of Education, administration and staff are committed to providing an environment where every child can grow and learn in a positive environment.   Engage-Motivate-Prepare-Inspire

The Open Meetings Act requires and the intention of the Board is that agenda items be sufficiently descriptive to give the public reasonable notice of matters to be considered at the meeting. The Board of Education releases its agenda well in advance of most meetings and desires that all interested persons are fully informed.  Any interested person who has a question or needs clarification about the sufficiency of a descriptive item should contact the Office of the Superintendent of Schools.

If anyone in attendance is interested in addressing our Board, you are welcome to do so.  We simply request that you complete the appropriate form and turn it in to us now, so that you may be recognized during the 'Public Comment' section of our meeting.

Agenda items are subject to reordering at the discretion of the board president.  Board members may request specific agenda item(s) be moved to a different place on the agenda.  Please attend the entire meeting to ensure you hear discussion on a particular agenda item.
