School Boards, Technology, and Sunshine Laws

Before implementing electronic meetings, soliciting input from community members on important issues via bulleting boards and e-mail, or communicating from Board member to Board member on Board business via e-mail it is important that the school analyze the Sunshine Laws in place in your state. Although this is still a relatively new area of exposure, there are several states in which such meetings would be clearly illegal.
