'We tried this different format to make it more accessible,' board president Kevine Boggess told The Examiner.
The San Francisco Board of Education has ushered in a new public comment process, but because of ambivalent reviews, board leadership is unsure if they will continue with it.
"We tried this different format to make it more accessible," board president Kevine Boggess told The Examiner."The reality is that our board meetings sometimes last past midnight. And that really is a deterrent for people providing public comment and giving input through the public comment process." Maya Keshavan, a former SFUSD parent, said the new process presents some challenges."If want to talk to multiple agenda items, it cuts time because you have to fit in multiple topics in one time slot," she said.
