It is important to remember that the Board operates as a collective group, which includes the Superintendent - a team of eight. If you have information you would like to share with the Board, there are several ways to communicate with the Board of Trustees.
Board Meetings
The Board welcomes comments at Board meetings from citizens who sign up prior to the meeting. Speakers will have up to three minutes to address the Board.
During a regular Board meeting, the Board may not discuss or act upon any issues that are not properly posted on the agenda, but may ask clarifying questions, or request that the Superintendent provide specific factual information regarding existing district policy and practice in response to public comment.
During Community Input Meetings, stakeholders are welcome to provide constructive input and ask questions on any issue related to District business or governance. Community Input Meetings do not have specific agenda items. As a result, speakers may speak on any topic related to Frisco ISD business or operations.
Additional information regarding public comment procedures are available in the Board Operating Procedures.
