How to Participate

Interpretation/ADA Accommodations
Simultaneous Spanish interpretation is provided for all regular meetings. 

Any individual requiring disability-related accommodations or modification, including auxiliary aids and services in order to participate in the meeting, should contact Laura Juranek, Executive Assistant to the Superintendent at 925-682-8000 or juranekl@mdusd.org, at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance of a regular meeting to make arrangements for such reasonable accommodations.

Public Comment
MDUSD encourages public participation in district business by way of public comments during meetings. There are two methods of submitting a comment:

Submit a public comment by email - day of meeting. Emails to BoardComments@mdusd.org are automatically distributed to each board member, and will be entered into the public record only when received on meeting days. Public commenters may request anonymity to omit their email addresses from the public record. Email attachments will not be accepted.  Public comment emails received on meeting days will be viewable on the meeting day via a posted link,  and retained and attached via link to the appropriate approved board minutes.

Appear in person to address the Board.  Anyone who wishes to address the Board must submit a Speaker Card, available in the Board Room on meeting days.  The Board President will call each speaker to the podium during the appropriate agenda item.  Please note, by law, the Board may not take action or engage in dialogue on items that are not on the posted agenda.

• Items that are not on the agenda of a regular board meeting may be addressed during the Public Comment (Non-Agendized Item) section of a regular board meeting. 
• Items which are on the agenda of a regular board meeting may be addressed when that specific item is introduced by the Board President. 
• Public Comment at special meetings or study session/workshops are limited to items on the agenda only. 

For all Public Comment items, speakers must submit a Speaker's Card to the Board secretary.  The Board President will call each speaker to the podium as appropriate. A maximum time limit of three (3) minutes per speaker has been established and will be enforced. 

Board meetings will include a Closed Session,  with no public access, beginning at 5:00PM and an Open Session, with public access, beginning at 6:00PM unless otherwise indicated.

Meetings are livestreamed on the District's YouTube channel and may be viewed via the Board Meeting livestream link on the day of the meeting.  

Board meeting dates for 2026 will be established at the December 10,  2025  Meeting.
