Dayton Board of Education to Resume In-Person Meetings

Preventative measures will be in place. 

Dayton Board of Education business meetings will be held in-person beginning Tuesday, October 20th. 

Due to COVID-19, only 40 people may attend in-person Board meetings. Meetings will continue to be live-streamed to the district’s Facebook Page. 

Reporters who wish to cover Board meetings in-person must RSVP no later than 5 p.m. the day of the meeting.

Due to limited space, only 1 RSVP per media outlet will be permitted. If a reporter does not RSVP, DPS cannot guarantee entry. Please RSVP to Alex Kincaid at amkincai@daytonpublic.com. 

Preventative measures at meetings will include:

• All attendees will be spaced six feet apart.
• Aisles will be widened.
• Only 40 people will be permitted to attend. 
  • If more than 40 people show up, those arriving last will be asked to watch the meeting online rather than in-person for the safety of all others in attendance. 
• Face masks are required.

Public comment:

• Those who wish to provide public comment to the Board must complete an online form by 5 p.m. the day of the meeting. 
• Those requesting to make public comment must be in attendance at the meeting. 
• There will be no paper forms available inside. The online form can be found at DaytonPublic.com on the homepage. (Or visit:  http://bit.ly/dpsboardquestions )
