The board president may also choose to allow individuals to express an opinion prior to board action on agenda items. Individuals or groups wishing to make formal presentations to the board should contact the superintendent and/or board president. The board will determine if they wish to add the item to their agenda or if it should be appropriately addressed under the "Public Comments" portion of the meeting. Individuals wishing to be heard by the board shall first be recognized by the president. After identifying themselves, individuals should proceed to make comments as briefly as the subject permits. Patrons of the district or community members shall be given speaking time priority over other members of the public who do not receive services from the district. The president retains the right to interrupt or terminate an individual's statement when it is too lengthy, personally directed, abusive, obscene, irrelevant, etc. The board as a whole shall have the final decision in determining the appropriateness of all such rulings. Individuals with disabilities who may need a modification to participate in a meeting should contact the superintendent’s office no later than three days before a regular meeting and as soon as possible in advance of a special meeting so that arrangements for the modification can be made.[8] [9] |

Academic performance
The Washington Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction published a state report card for 2011-2012 assessing subject proficiency levels and year-to-year progress for each district. This report card relies on data from the Measurements of Student Progress (MSP) and High School Proficiency Exam (HSPE) to determine if each district meets Annual Yearly Progress (AYP) goals in reading and math. The goal for each district was to meet proficiency goals at all grade levels and student demographics by the 2013-2014 school year.
Northshore School District met the state goal of 95% participation across all grade levels. The district did not meet AYP goals for reading at the elementary and middle school levels.[15]
