Regularly scheduled board meetings are at 7:00 pm on the last Tuesday of each month (view full schedule and exceptions). Unless otherwise indicated, the Board will meet in the Dr. Homer O. Harvey Community Room adjacent to Northbrook Junior High School, 1475 Maple Avenue.

The Board of Education also has committee meetings, which are work sessions usually regarding only a single topic. By Illinois law, the Board may not take official action at committee meetings. However, the public is always welcome to attend. These committee meetings often occur on the second Tuesday of the month at the usual time and place for Board Meetings. If there is a meeting, the agenda will be posted as required by law.

The most common board actions include approval of policies for the operation of the schools, employment of staff, adopting and monitoring the annual budget, adopting the annual tax levy, authorizing curriculum development, and providing general direction.

The "Board Briefs" is an overview of the meeting's main topics and is published after each meeting.

Access an archive of Board Briefs.

Sign up to receive the E-news version of Board Briefs and other District News.

Please join us for a PTO fundraiser with Grill House on Monday, September 27, from 10:30am-9pm.  The Meadowbrook PTO will get 20% of sales that day when people mention Meadowbrook School.  You can order online, by phone or in-person for dine-in or carry out for both lunch and dinner.
