Battle Ground Public Schools Board Hosts Open Citizens Comments Session

During the recent Battle Ground Public Schools Board of Directors meeting, community engagement took center stage as citizens were invited to share their thoughts and concerns. The board emphasized the importance of public participation, encouraging residents to sign in and voice their opinions during the designated citizens comments segment.

Jessica Cole was among the first to address the board, marking the beginning of an open dialogue between community members and school officials. The board reminded attendees to adhere to guidelines, including a three-minute speaking limit and a focus on family-appropriate topics. While board members typically do not respond during this segment, they assured the public that they would listen carefully and direct any necessary actions to the administrative team.

This commitment to transparency and community involvement highlights the board's dedication to fostering a collaborative environment where citizens can express their views on educational matters. As the meeting progressed, the board's willingness to hear from the public underscores the importance of community input in shaping the future of Battle Ground schools.
