The board will meet in closed session at 5:45 p.m. to discuss personnel issues, including labor relations.

The board will meet in open public session at 7 p.m. The board will offer recognition of the Castaic, Valencia and Hart High School Marching Bands as Southern California School Band & Orchestra Association (SCSBOA) Divisions 1A, 2A, and 4A (respectively) Marching Band Champions.

Also on the agenda will be discussion regarding potential board policy/administrative regulation involving student conduct at extracurricular and cocurricular events with regard to the displaying of flags, banners, symbols, or other insignia at school sponsored events.

The item is in response to the flying of the Thin Blue Line flag that caused tension and was banned from being displayed by Saugus High School football players before games.

Despite the district superintendent and coach calling for the flag to stop flying, a Saugus High football player carried the Thin Blue Line flag in the pregame introductions before the Friday, Oct. 28 game between Saugus and Golden Valley at College of the Canyons in Valencia.
