Every other month (February, April, June, August...) there is a Board Listening Session prior to the meeting from 5:15 p.m. - 5:45 p.m. These sessions are held in the District Office, which is also located at Oconto Middle School. This is an opportunity for you to voice concerns to 2 of our school board members.
