Board Of Education

The East Haddam Public Schools Board of Education is comprised of nine board members elected bi-annually for six-year terms. Members freely dedicate their time and energy to serving our school community and make every decision with only the best interests of the students in mind.

We hold our meetings on the second Wednesday of every month at 7:00 p.m. at the Municipal Office Complex, Conference Room 1 and 2 unless otherwise noted. We also offer live streaming of these events on YouTube.

Audience of Citizens

The Audience of Citizens provides an opportunity for East Haddam residents to briefly and respectfully share their thoughts, concerns, and questions with the Board of Education. Any written comments or materials must be submitted to the Board Chair and may be distributed at a later time. The Chair reserves the right to discontinue public comment at any point if remarks include specific or personally identifiable references to Board employees and/or students. This portion of the meeting does not involve discussion. All questions will receive a timely response from the Board Chair or Superintendent.

Subcommittees

The East Haddam Board of Education maintains three subcommittees to oversee business related to district operations, instructional policy, and personnel negotiations. The chairman of the board may assign Ad Hoc committees on an as-needed basis. Please check the district calendar for times and locations.

Business & Planning
This subcommittee oversees district operations in regard to finance, facilities, district planning, transportation, and communication. 

Policy & Instruction
This subcommittee oversees our curriculum and policies regarding student achievement and academics as well as athletics and extracurricular activities. 

Personnel & Negotiations
