Board members and staff said the agreement is intended to reduce lengthy bus rides for families in the southern portion of Flagler County and to preserve neighborhood choice. \"It will just allow our students who are straddling, county lines to attend schools with their friends and neighbors, even though it is across another county,\" said Lisa Divina, who presented the agreement to the board.

The board’s vote formalizes terms discussed in a workshop and in board meetings over the past year. Superintendent Moore said the agreement \"gives our students some greater choice to allow for them to continue to go to school here in Flagler County or ... to go to Volusia County as if that were their zone.\" She and staff said the arrangement is a wash financially at present: there is no exchange of additional funds beyond the usual FTE allocation that follows each student.

The agreement sets an annual meeting to review the arrangement and includes procedures to rescind an individual student’s enrollment for disciplinary or other reasons. District legal counsel summarized how the interlocal fits with state provisions on school choice and controlled open enrollment: out-of-county applicants may attend if there is capacity, but they are not prioritized over in-county students.

Board members and staff described travel-time pressures in the area the agreement targets. Staff said some Flagler students in the Hunters Ridge/Airport Road area and adjacent neighborhoods face bus rides of an hour or more one way; the new agreement allows families an option to enroll in a nearer Volusia school where that better fits their needs. Officials said the number of affected students from each county is roughly equal and estimated to be in the low dozens.

The board approved the interlocal by motion, with Christie Chong moving and Lauren Ramirez seconding; the item passed unanimously. Board members said the agreement can be discontinued if future development or capacity changes make it no longer desirable for Flagler County.

Clarifying details recorded during the discussion included: staff estimating approximately 40 students affected, that base student funding (FTE) would follow enrolled students with no net transfer of additional local funds, and that the agreement contains explicit revocation procedures including warnings and notification requirements.

The board approved the agreement after extended discussion and legal clarification. The agreement takes effect under the terms recorded in the interlocal document between the two districts.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","04/22/25 Flagler School Board Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","The Flagler County School Board on April 22 unanimously approved an interlocal agreement with Volusia County allowing students who live along the county line to enroll in neighboring-county schools to reduce lengthy bus commutes and preserve neighborhood choice.","taxTitle","Flagler, School Districts, Florida","taxId",65392,"location","Florida","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6266619,"Votes at a glance: Flagler County School Board actions, April 22, 2025",1524,2484000,4008000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3087020-4a89a7337aba80340935d8358de1bbbb&start=2484&end=4008","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3087020-4a89a7337aba80340935d8358de1bbbb/thumbnail_2484000.jpg","/articles/6266619/Florida/Votes-at-a-glance-Flagler-County-School-Board-actions-April-22-2025","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6266619-de018f5368533bf2da032b32a12bd7cb/orig.mp4?Expires=1770643015&Signature=onWry1fp3pLIFY8gD103AaTzMiL4Pj0k6KcKpaAStyOWlAL8p-RHnTgrI0JDBeq2vRYIm9UO7bp2k~cSgUWL319SAy5ReqcWifmjg6QxnbzBPMYyYDQIap46mqT1eCthiKxc1w3sYsZi8aMhyw48TJPe0a2B3RNox3gRljnKX~tdTPQGTXrSu5IkXx7kUqgehgfKB32UNSuCYqb46Ds3qbH4HyvEgHSgKpyNXQHgU-ZoPK4OM-oaGMHq3dMl6GrgGYTeilQsdHNvVXtFhgqYyQWH4NLCfmgk~DJdgaGUhx6AS95bb~xjNSdpWfIqwRmcyC81EjJ1z-C6FhfBHH2yfg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Flagler County School Board recorded the following formal actions at its April 22, 2025 regular meeting.

Notes and clarifications

- The transcript records that the interlocal agreement is intended to be a wash financially at present (no net transfer of local funds beyond the FTE allocation that follows students) and includes annual review and revocation procedures for disciplinary matters.

- The Embry-Riddle amendment reduces cost by about $440 for the current contract segment because a course will not be offered at Matanzas this year; staff said the course will be offered next year.

- The technology MOA with the University of Florida grows out of teacher-led pilots that staff said placed Flagler in fifth place nationally in a Khan Academy Conathon; the MOA establishes research and data-sharing terms to evaluate the district’s use of Conmigo.

- When the transcript lists a motion but does not enumerate individual roll-call votes, the minutes indicated unanimous approval and the chair announced the motion passed.

Superintendent Moore summarized Bossardette’s experience: \"He served in various roles throughout the organization. He's been a teacher, district behavior specialist, district coordinator of risk management, as well as our district safety specialist, and an assistant principal. He navigated us through COVID as the district safety specialist and risk management specialist at the time, and we are excited to have him back.\" The superintendent also noted his working relationships with the sheriff’s office and NEFEC on risk-management matters.

Board members clarified the appointment finalizes a previously filled role rather than creating a new position. The motion to approve was made by Christie Chong and seconded by Lauren Ramirez; the board voted unanimously to confirm the appointment.

Staff said the appointment will place the district safety and risk-management responsibilities under Bossardette’s purview going forward.","Flagler County School Board approved personnel item 11.01 appointing David Bossardette to the district safety specialist role vacated by Mr. Willahan.

The board first approved policy revisions (agenda item 15.01) intended to align district policy with the Neola policy review process. Trustees then approved a separate memorandum of agreement with the University of Florida (agenda item 15.02) that formalizes a research partnership and data-sharing terms to support classroom use and evaluation of Conmigo.

Presenters told the board the district began with a small pilot—middle- and high-school teachers used the tool in algebra and college math courses—and that pilot work drew national attention. Staff reported the district placed fifth in Khan Academy’s Conathon for AI explorers, which helped bring Khan Academy and researchers to Flagler for the current collaboration. As a result, the district will offer Conmigo access to sixth through twelfth graders and to families at home, subject to the data and privacy terms spelled out in the agreement.

Board members emphasized this is part of a research collaboration with the UF Lassner Center and university researchers to evaluate how AI tools affect instruction and student learning. Staff described the MOA as a way to \"learn what's actually effective in instructing our K–12 students,\" language echoed by trustees during the discussion.

Both motions passed without dissent. Motions and seconds were recorded in the meeting minutes; board members said the project grew from teacher-led pilots and that the MOA is intended to ensure researchers can study results under agreed privacy protections.

The board’s action moves the district toward wider classroom use of AI tutoring tools under a formal research partnership; district staff said training and further implementation steps will follow.

","Flagler County School Board approved revisions to district technology policies and a memorandum of agreement with the University of Florida to expand use of Khan Academy's AI tutoring application Conmigo for sixth through twelfth graders. Board members praised the district pilot that placed fifth in a national Conmigo challenge.","actionData","errors"]
