Business Meetings and Regular Meetings

Every meeting is open to the public, and we encourage the community to attend.  The agenda and minutes from every board meeting can be found using Board Docs.  We would also encourage anyone with questions or comments to utilize our Let’s Talk! communication tool available on our website and through the Let’s Talk! mobile app.  This will ensure that your questions and comments are seen and answered by the appropriate district personnel or board of education members.

The Owego Apalachin Board of Education will hold business (BM) and regular (RM) meetings throughout the school year.

Meetings will be conducted at 6:00 pm in the Board of Education room at the District Office, 5 Sheldon Guile Blvd., Owego. (Unless otherwise noted)

Any member of the public who wishes to address the Board of Education can do so at the regular meetings during the public comment period. Members of the public are welcome to attend Business meetings, although there is no public comment section.
