The next LAUSD board meeting isn’t until September 11, and it’s one of only four scheduled board meetings for the rest of 2012. The board will also meet on October 9, November 13 and December 11, according to Jefferson Crain, the Board Secretariat. However “if an issue comes up that has a time component or which the Board Members would like to address before their next scheduled meeting, they have every opportunity to call a “special” meeting,” wrote Crain in an email.  There will also be an as-yet-to-be-determined number of committee meetings, as well as a “Williams Hearing,” a state mandated hearing “to certify that they have or do not have the texts and instructional materials for every student in the “core” classes,” according to Crain.You can see the 2012-2013 board calendar here. If you click on a past meeting (say, the August 21 example), you’ll see there’s archived video, too. Alas, there’s still no public Wi-Fi during meetings.
