Kentucky School for the Blind Advisory Board to meet July 12

The Kentucky School for the Blind (KSB) Advisory Board will meet at the Kentucky School for the Blind on July 12, 2022 at 11 a.m. ET

The Kentucky General Assembly authorized the KSB to have an advisory board. While the language in KRS 167.035 is permissive and does not require an advisory board to exist. If such a board is established, the advisory board provides advice to the commissioner of education and the KSB Administration on how the school can best meet the specialized education and cultural needs of the community of students it serves.

The KSB Advisory Board will set aside 30 minutes for public comment. Individuals wishing to address the board must sign up to speak before the meeting begins, and provide his or her name and the issue they will speak on.

This information should be emailed to board chair Janell Turner at janellk.turner@ky.gov. Individuals addressing the board will be provided five minutes each. The board has the right to set limits on the topics that may be addressed by the public to ensure relevance to the function and purpose of the board.
