At the public comment portion of the meeting, two members of the public addressed the board. "Mister Mike Davis" spoke on behalf of teachers to thank the board for the recently passed maternity leave policy and for actions the speaker said had improved pay and school culture.

Mike Davis told the board the change had been "a very big hit for all of our teachers and employees" and said the association will continue to work with district leadership on staffing and compensation.

A resident who identified themselves during the public comment period raised a dispute about a Scott County Middle School transfer‑bus policy that the speaker said prevents the parent from picking up their child at Great Crossing. The resident described multiple attempts to resolve the matter with the middle school and transportation office, saying the initial response was a "blanket no" and reporting that Georgetown police were called when the parent attempted to pick up their child. The speaker said the restriction was not related to custody and that the child lives at home with both parents. The resident characterized the policy response as inconsistent — noting that their older son could walk out of the high school and get into the parent's vehicle without an ID check — and asked the board to help find a humane local solution.

The superintendent and board chair noted receipt of emails about the situation and explained that public comment is for presenting concerns; staff would follow up after the meeting. The board did not take a formal action on the complaint during the session.

The public comment period also included introductions of members of the teachers' executive committee and brief thanks from board members for community events the district hosted earlier in the season.
