Site Council Public Forum Guest Speaker Guidelines

All PCFC Site Council meetings are open to the public. Members of the Pacific Cascade Freshman Campus community are invited to share their voice in this venue. To provide for a fair and orderly process, we ask that all participants adhere to the following guidelines:

1. Guest speakers are asked to sign in prior to the time that the meeting is called to order. This includes the speaker’s name, address, relationship to the PCFC community, and subject to be addressed. To be put on the agenda, please fill out the Guest Speaker Form and email to Hollie Caley, Site Council Secretary at caleyh@issaquah.wednet.edu  or deliver to the PCFC campus.
2. Guest speakers are invited to speak during the open forum time provided at the beginning of each Site Council meeting. If, on the other hand, a guest wishes to address a specific topic that is on the agenda, those comments may be made at the time in the agenda that topic is addressed. Any subject may be addressed with the exception of confidential matters, including school personnel issues.
3. Each guest speaker is allowed a maximum of three minutes to speak.
4. The Council Facilitator reserves the right to address any inappropriate displays, language or conduct, and has the right to ask the guests to cease the objectionable behavior or to leave the meeting.

It is the responsibility of the Site Council facilitator, or his/her representative, to follow up on speaker’s comments. This may occur by:

1. Surveying the pleasure of the Council relative to the topic.
2. Assisting the guest speaker in gaining answers to questions through appropriate channels as determined by the Site Council.
