December Regular Meeting of the LJSD Board of Trustees
Regular School Board Meetings are held at 6:00p.m. on the second Monday of each month (unless otherwise posted), at the Lakeland Joint School District Administrative Offices, 15506 N Washington Street, Rathdrum, Idaho. We were unable to post this months regular board meeting due to no sound being recorded. Meeting minutes will be posted on the District website.
Strategic Planning Committee
Parent Advocacy Group
We realize that many people are unable to attend our monthly parent advocacy meetings due to time constraints. In an effort to ensure that your questions are answered, we are putting a link on the district website under the Parents/Students tab and then Parent Advocacy where you can provide agenda items you would like to have discussed. If you are unable to attend, you will at least be able to listen to the discussion via the video link for the month. We appreciate your partnership! Thank you for sharing your children with us! Meeting minutes from our December meeting here.
Long Range Planning Committee
If you are interested in participating, please join us at the District Office. Our next meeting will be posted after our Strategic Planning Committee meets in January.
