SMMUSD Board Meeting To Begin One Hour Later Than Normal On Wednesday:

The public portion of the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District Board of Education Meeting on Wednesday, June 24, will begin at 6:30 pm, instead of 5:30 pm.

This change in time is to allow the Board of Education additional time to address items during closed session without impacting the start time of open session. (Closed session will begin at its normal time at 4:30 pm in the conference room.)

The agenda for this meeting will be posted on the District website www.smmusd.org/board/meetings.html.
