2008-2009 Schedule for Board of Education meetings

Over the summer, the board of ed decided to hold this school year’s meetings in Greeley’s academic commons, with the possibility of broadcasting live this year. [Editor’s note: The Board of Education’s website lists Seven Bridges as the location of its September 22 meeting; the actual location is the high school commons.]
