The Hamilton Southeastern School Board will begin live-streaming most board meetings and making video recordings of those meetings available for at least four years, but the board split 4-3 in approving the policy. Board members Sylvia Shepler, Amanda Shera and Brad Boyer voted no.
Boyer said the Indiana School Boards Association was advising local boards not to live-stream and make available videos of board meetings.
The video live-streaming is expected to begin at the next regular board meeting, scheduled for March 27th. Only regular board meetings held in the board room at the administration building will be live-streamed and recorded. Work sessions and meetings held at other locations will not be live-streamed or recorded.
