Board Meeting Dates

All residents are encouraged to attend School Board meetings and become more involved in the decisions that affect them and our students.

The Bensalem Board of School Directors believes in and is committed to the principle that there should be resident participation at all School Board meetings.

The following guidelines govern resident participation:

• Opportunities for community comment are provided at the beginning and end of each Regular/Work Session meeting. Residents are encouraged, when recognized by the Board President, to speak briefly concerning any matter under discussion by the Board during the course of the meeting.

• Residents who wish to address the Board should read and follow the public comment protocol.

  • Bensalem community members wishing to speak must register in person at the Dorothy D. Call Administrative Center by completing a public comment card. To speak during Public Comment #1, cards must be submitted to the Board Secretary prior to the start of the meeting. Cards for Public Comment #2 may be submitted any time during the meeting. When recognized by the Board President, speakers should approach the microphone, state their name for the record. They will have three minutes to speak.
  • The privilege to address the Board does not extend to non-residents. If non-residents wish to bring an issue to the attention of the Board, they should write a letter to the President expressing their concern. This letter will be distributed to all Board members.
