Meeting Management for Education
Built for boards of trustees, school advisory councils, and education committees. CivicCA helps school boards run transparent, compliant meetings with AI-powered agendas, parent-facing portals, and automated minutes.
Challenges School Boards Face
Running a school board meeting is harder than it looks. Compliance, parent engagement, volunteer capacity, and budget pressure all pull in different directions.
Brown Act Applies to You Too
School boards are legislative bodies under the Brown Act. Every meeting needs 72-hour agenda posting, proper public comment, and closed session compliance — the same rules that apply to city councils.
Parent Engagement Is Critical
Parents need easy access to agendas, meeting schedules, and the ability to submit comments. Buried PDF agendas on the district website don't cut it when families are pressed for time.
Board Members Are Volunteers
Trustees juggle board duties with full-time jobs. They need mobile-friendly tools to review agendas, follow meetings, and cast votes from any device — not a desktop-only legacy system.
Budget Scrutiny Is Intense
Every dollar matters in education. School boards can't justify enterprise pricing for meeting software when those funds could go to classrooms. CivicCA was priced with education in mind.
How CivicCA Helps School Boards
Purpose-built tools for every stage of the board meeting lifecycle — from agenda preparation to published minutes.
Simple Agenda Building
Drag-and-drop agendas for board meetings, committee meetings, and special sessions. Templates make recurring meeting structures reusable so staff spend less time on formatting and more time on substance.
Brown Act Compliance
Automated compliance checks tailored to education — including special meeting restrictions, public comment requirements, and closed session rules for student discipline and personnel matters.
Parent-Facing Portal
A branded portal where parents and community members can view agendas, submit eComments, watch meetings, and follow board actions — without needing to create an account or navigate the district website.
Speaker Registration
Public speaker sign-up for board meetings. Parents register online before the meeting or at an on-site kiosk when they arrive. Queue management with configurable per-speaker time limits keeps meetings on track.
AI Minutes Generation
Transcribe board meetings and generate draft minutes automatically. Speaker attribution, motion tracking, and vote recording are all included — cutting the minutes drafting process from hours to minutes.
Board Member Sessions
Secure, token-based sessions let trustees follow the live agenda, view backup documents, and cast votes from their phones or tablets during the meeting — no shared login, no paper packets.
Priced for School Boards
No enterprise contracts. No per-seat fees. No annual negotiation. Flat monthly pricing that any board can justify to its community.
