Are meetings open to the public?

Absolutely.  Parents, teachers, students and community members are all 
encouraged to attend LSC meetings.  There is even a period of time near the  
end of each meeting for Public Participation.  After signing up at the 
beginning of meeting, anyone attending the meeting has two minutes in which 
they can voice their concerns.
