NEW - Board Meetings will begin at 7:00PM
Beginning September 10, 2008, we will begin using the HB City Council Chambers for our school board meetings. We will also begin using their audio-video equipment for live viewing, and for the community to see as "Archives" in the future. Another feature of using their system is to have our school board agenda posted in its entirety on the City's webpage.
You may go to www.hermosabch.org, then click on "Now available: on-demand video of city meetings", look for "School Board Meetings" and then click on "Agenda" on the right-hand side.
You can find the full version of the agenda on the HB City Website: http://hermosabeach.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=4
The Board of Education is the elected body charged with governing our school district. Board members serve four-year terms. By law, the Board is responsible for the education of all children in the District. The Board's actions, which must conform to Federal, State, and County laws, set policy and give direction to the staff on instructional programs, financial decisions and collective bargaining. The District staff, headed by the Superintendent of Schools, carries out the policies and actions of the Board.
