(FRANKFORT, KY) – The Kentucky Board of Education (KBE) will hold a virtual teleconference meeting at 9 a.m. ET on Aug. 6.
Pursuant to Executive Order 2020-243 and a memorandum issued by the Finance and Administration Cabinet dated March 16, 2020, and in an effort to prevent the spread of novel coronavirus (COVID-19), the Kentucky Board of Education will meet utilizing a video teleconference. Members of the public will not be permitted to attend the meeting in person, but are encouraged to view the meeting on the Kentucky Department of Education's (KDE) Media Portal.
A dedicated public comment segment is included on the board’s agenda. Public expression will be accepted via email only. The board will only review and respond to information and feedback about matters listed on the board’s agenda. Please note that public expression is not a question and answer session and it may not be possible for the board to read every comment submitted during the public comment segment of the Aug. 6 meeting.
Anyone wanting to submit public expression must email kbe@education.ky.gov prior to close-of-business on Aug. 4. Individuals must provide their name and an email address where they can receive a response. The order of public expression will be based on the time stamp on the email received. The public comment period will be limited to no more than 30 minutes. If there are multiple members of an organization wishing to provide public expression, we encourage the membership of that group to select one person to comment.
Public criticism of individual staff members or individual board members is prohibited. Since no individual board member may act on behalf of the board, concerns about action of the board should be directed to the board as a whole.
