All Oak Park Board of Education meetings are open to the public, and all Board business takes place in public except for discussion on some specific topics where the Board meets in Closed Session. Closed Session agenda items are announced in public and then discussed with only Board Members and District staff present. Closed Sessions are permitted by law and held in accordance with the state Open Meeting laws to allow Board Members to discuss confidential legal, personnel, and collective bargaining matters. Most of the official business of the Board is conducted during regularly scheduled meetings on the third Tuesday of the month at 6:00 pm at Oak Park High School Presentation Room G9, unless otherwise indicated. Upcoming meeting dates and agendas can be found below, meeting Agendas for a Regular meeting are posted in print form 72 hours in advance and 24 hours in advance of a Special Board meeting on all district school sites, Oak Park Library, and at the District Office, 5801 Conifer Street, Oak Park. Electronic copies of the Agenda are available on this page of the district website.

- Submit a yellow public comment card to the Executive Assistant before the meeting is called to order. Be sure to include the topic of the comment.
- The Board President will sort the comment cards into categories so that comments can be made at the appropriate time in the meeting.
- Comments on items not included on the agenda will occur toward the beginning of the meeting before the board conducts their official business.
- Comments related to an item included on the agenda will be heard prior to that agenda item.
- Comments related to closed session items will be made in open session, immediately preceding the closed session.
- Public comments are limited to 3 minutes per comment and 20 minutes per topic. The Board President may extend these time limits.
The Board does not take action or discuss items not appearing on the agenda. The Board values public comments and wishes to convey that although Board members cannot discuss items that are not on the agenda, they listen carefully and appreciate and value input from the public.
