Please Note:
The District discourages the public and/or media from attending the meeting in person at its noticed location due to concerns with health and safety and encourages use of the alternative methods described below of access that the District is providing. The district may limit the physical attendance at the noticed location, to the guidelines recently established by State and Federal Health officials as of the last date of notice, and at the time of this notice, being April 20, 2020.
Given these extraordinary circumstances, the district is taking measures to provide, to the best of our ability, access by the public to the meeting. We are providing the following links that can be used to access the board meeting in a “live stream” type media format. If for some reason individuals do not have the capability to utilize this technology from a remote perspective, the district will have set aside two separate rooms at the school that up to 10 people per room will be able to view the meeting Live Stream. All attendees in these rooms will be required to follow the established separation guidelines as established by State and Local Health Officials. If there is anyone who would have need for any other accommodation, please contact the Mercer School District at (715)-476-2154. The links for the meeting are listed below and will further be communicated on the School District Website on Friday the 15th of May, and via a “text message” blast to the general public on Friday the 15th of May.
