The School Committee encourages written and electronic correspondence from the public. Such correspondence should be sent to the Committee through the Administrative Assistant, who will forward the correspondence to the School Committee Chair and the other members of the School Committee, per policy KAA School Community-Home Communications.
 
All written comments and questions received by the Administrative Assistant by 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, the date of the School Committee Regular Meeting, will become part of the meeting packet and will be shared with the full School Committee and administration before the meeting via email. No written comments will be read at the meeting.

For members of the public who wish to address the Committee, there will be 20 minutes of public comment. If you would like to sign up to speak, either remotely via Zoom or in-person, you must email [email protected] by 6:00 p.m. Thursday, the date of the meeting. Depending on how many people sign up, time allotments may be reduced, but will not exceed three minutes each. If the number of people who sign up exceeds what can be reasonably done in 20 minutes, the number of speakers may be capped or speaking times may be reduced at the discretion of the Chair. All requests to speak received after the date and time indicated, will be invited to speak at the next School Committee Regular Meeting.
