Committee Meetings on Thursday, December 11, 2014, beginning at 1:00 p.m. in the OPSB Timbers III Office Building, 3520 General De Gaulle Drive, Room 4050. 

 Committees typically review and discuss issues that will later be considered at Board Business Meetings and review the progress of the implementation of items previously approved. The next Board Business Meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, December 16, at 5:00 p.m. at the McDonogh 35 High School, 1331 Kerlerec Street. 

The general public usually has its best opportunity at the Committee Meetings to comment on items pending before the Board. The complete posted agendas and back-up documentation can be accessed by clicking on the titles of each respective Committee below. 

OPSBrief has summarized the meeting agendas below. The OPSB Office has announced that it will no longer supply hard copies of back-up documents at the meetings, only the actual agendas, but those materials will still be posted on the links below and the OPSB website, www.opsb.us
