The Sumner County Board of Education transacts all business at official meetings. Meetings of the Board, except those with the Board's attorney to discuss pending or threatened litigation, are open to the public.
All powers of the Board lie in its action as a group. The 11 individual members exercise their authority over school system affairs only as they vote at official meetings. Six members must be in attendance for the Board to hold an official meeting. A simple majority vote of the Board's total membership is required to approve most matters. With 11 members in office, six votes are required for approval of an item under consideration, even if members are absent.
