Meet the Board Members
An elected board of trustees consisting of five members governs the district. The term of office for board members is four years. There are no applicable term limits. Board members, by state law, must reside within the school district boundaries. Email all board members at trustees@lasdschools.org.
Addressing the Board
Public Comment:
Public comment will only be taken in person. Prior to addressing the Board, each speaker is requested to complete a speaker card (located on the table near the door) and hand it to the Superintendent before the meeting starts or at the beginning of the agenda item. Requests received after public comment has begun on an agenda item will not be accepted.
Per Board Bylaw 9323 – Meeting Conduct, each agenda or non-agenda item is limited to 30 minutes of public comment. Individual speaker time is determined by the number of speakers on an item, as follows:
- 1-10 speakers: 3 minutes
- 11-15 speakers: 2 minutes
- 16+ speakers: 1 minute
Speaking time cannot be delegated to another person.
The time for each agenda item is approximate.
Individuals who require a special accommodation to participate in this meeting should call the Superintendent’s Office at (650) 947-1152 at least 48 hours prior to the meeting in order for arrangements to be made.
As a courtesy to others, please turn off your cell phone upon entering the meeting.
