The Newburgh School District Board of Education met Wednesday May 27, 2009 at 5:00PM for about 45 minutes.
Meetings of the Board of Education are supposed to be public meetings.
It is possible that the subject matter of the meeting could only be discussed in executive session, so there may have been little for the Public to hear at the meeting. However, the Board does not have the authority to choose which meetings they announce and which they do not.
Meeting announcement
The schools received a fax shortly before 4PM notifying staff of an "emergency" meeting for 5PM. I am a teacher and it was announced in my school at 4:10PM. No information about topic was given.
