The meetings will take place in the auditorium of the New Bridge Learning Center, 5915 Nine Mile Road, Henrico, Virginia. Closed sessions will be held during the work session as deemed necessary. School Board meetings are open to the public and interested citizens are invited to attend.
There are two ways to comment at the public hearing: in-person comments and written comments. The public hearing will start at 6 p.m. and in-person comments will be limited to input related to a Resolution for the Conveyance of Surplus 4.78± acres located at 7850 Carousel Lane. Citizens may submit written comments for the public hearing in advance using an online form, which must be submitted by 4:30 p.m. April 19.
There will be a Public Forum during the monthly meeting for interested citizens to address the Board in person on any matter of concern about the school division. Citizens are required to sign up in advance via an online form or by calling the Clerk by 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 19. Speakers who sign up in advance may not transfer their speaking spot to another individual. To ensure the School Board has the opportunity to hear from as many constituents as possible, it is requested that only one member of each household reserve a spot to speak. Individuals providing public comment on behalf of a group may speak and then provide the Board hard copies of written comments from each member of their group. Each speaker will be limited to two minutes.
Citizens are also invited to submit written comments about any topic, not just those listed on the agenda, using an online form, which must be submitted by 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 19, by going to the School Board webpage at https://henricoschools.us/school-board/and clicking “Submit comments on any matter.” Written comments submitted using the online form and submitted within the deadline are an official part of the public record for the meeting and will be distributed to the Board members before the meeting and posted for public view in “BoardDocs,” where all meeting materials are archived.
