| | | | | | | | | The Governor has declared a State of Emergency to exist in California as a result of the threat of COVID-19 (aka the "Coronavirus"). The Governor issued Executive Order N-25-20, which directs Californians to follow public health directives including canceling large gatherings. The Executive Order also allows local legislative bodies to hold meetings via conference calls while still satisfying state transparency requirements. The Governor has also issued Executive Order N-33-20, prohibiting people from leaving their homes or places of residence except to access necessary supplies and services or to engage in specified critical infrastructure employment.
The Public's health and well-being are the top priority for the Board of Trustees of the Mountain View School District and you are urged to take all appropriate health safety precautions. To facilitate this process, the meeting of the Board will be available by: | |

The Board and Administration welcome this opportunity to listen; however, in compliance with the Brown Act, the Board is not permitted to take action on non-agenda items. Speakers are requested to complete a speaker card and state their name for the record. If there are additional comments after 10 minutes have elapsed, this item may be continued after all the action and discussion items are completed. Notes on Community Comments on Agendized Items
The staff presentation to the Board will occur first for each item. The Board will then ask clarifying questions. Afterwards, the community will be invited to comment. Any person wishing to speak will be granted up to three (3) minutes at the time the item appears on the agenda. Comments will be taken for up to 10 minutes, with extra time allowed for translation, as needed. Prior to addressing the Board, each speaker is requested to complete a speaker card (located on the counter near the door), give it to the Superintendent's Executive Assistant, and state his/her name for the record. We ask that you speak from the podium so that we may better hear you. At the conclusion of remarks or after 10 minutes has elapsed, the public comment portion is closed for that item and the Board will return to their own deliberations and comments. Please see the Board's "Welcome" brochure for more specifics on how Board meetings are run. The Board is grateful to have district personnel in the audience.
