Holland Central School District Board of Education · July 25, 2025

Summary

Board members proposed adding ad hoc committees that include community members to support advocacy, athletics and other district initiatives; they agreed to develop a list of committee topics and invite volunteers ahead of the next meeting.

Board members discussed adding ad hoc committees that include community members to provide targeted advice and advocacy on topics such as athletics and programming.

Russ and other board members suggested creating small groups with specific purposes and caps on membership rather than large town-hall style meetings. The board agreed to identify three or four committees, draft invitations, and return the item as an agenda item at the next meeting for approval and volunteer recruitment. "We wanna come up with a good list of at least 3, maybe 4, committees where we can invite public members to join," a board member said during the roundtable.

The proposal is intended to expand community input while preserving clear board oversight through a designated board member for each ad hoc committee.
