Board approves optional flexible-day attendance program for Dickinson Continuation Center

Sep 8, 2026

Trustees approved an optional flexible student day program for the Dickinson Continuation Center (DCC) intended to better capture attendance time and potentially recoup about $30,000 in funding by counting student time rather than a single attendance snapshot.

The full story

Mr. Cobb (S5) introduced an optional flexible day program for the Dickinson Continuation Center (DCC), explaining that attendance funding is tied to when students are present rather than enrollment snapshots. Staff estimated the district could recoup roughly $30,000 if the program is implemented and will submit an application to TASB to request approval to use the optional funding mechanism.
