This session of the radio show shares the Franklin, MA School Committee meeting held on Tuesday, October 12, 2021.

The meeting was conducted in a hybrid format: the School Committee members were in the Municipal Bldg along with some of the public, other members of the public joined via conference bridge, all to adhere to the ‘social distancing’ requirements of this pandemic period.

The recording runs about two hour and twenty minutes (2 hour 20 minutes), so I split the meeting into two segments:

• First - covers the opening, the citizens comments and FHS student update, Superintendent’s Report and the safety presentation (~1 hour 4 mins)
• Second - covers the Discussion Action items, the Discussion Only items, the consent agenda, through to the entry to Executive Session, from which they did not return to open meeting (~ 48 mins)

Links to the meeting agenda and associated documents released for this meeting are included in the show notes. The link to my notes taken during the meeting is also provided.

Let’s listen to this segment of the School Committee meeting held Oct 12, 2021
