The Orleans Parish School Board held its regular monthly
Committee Meetings on Thursday, November 12, 2015.
Committees typically review issues prior to the items being presented to the full Board at a subsequent meeting. Committees also review the progress of the implementation of items previously approved by the full Board.
OPSBrief has highlighted agenda items below which were not subsequently considered at the November 17 Board Business Meeting and thus not reported in the OPSBrief for that meeting.
