District officials said several schools are full and that the district is opening an additional 3K class at Eastside. The district has petitioned to open an additional 3K class at Ambrose and expects an answer within a few weeks. Officials confirmed there are waiting lists for the 3K program at several schools.

Superintendent-level staff (not named in the provided transcript excerpt) briefed the board on the figures during the meeting; the transcript shows the board discussing maintaining positive momentum after convocation and sharing a back-to-school video produced by the district to highlight programs and student experiences.

The video, shown to the board, included remarks from Van Allen, identified in the meeting as principal of Coffee High School, and students Kinsley Farrah Moore and Carissa McKenzie. Van Allen said the school often prompts community members to ask “why Coffee?” as a way to explain the district’s strengths. Students highlighted advanced-placement courses, dual-enrollment and leadership experiences; one student described JROTC as offering leadership and service opportunities.

No specific budgetary figures tied to expanding 3K seats or timelines for fully resolving waiting lists were recorded in the provided transcript excerpt.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","CCBOE Regular Meeting Aug 28 2025","oneSentenceSummary","District officials reported at the Aug. 28 meeting that K–12 enrollment is 7,134 and that including pre-K brings total enrollment to 7,482; several schools have 3K waiting lists and the district is opening classes at Eastside and seeking approval for another at Ambrose.","taxTitle","Coffee County, School Districts, Georgia","taxId",53313,"location","Georgia","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},6479316,"Board advances consent agenda items and hears first readings of several personnel and technology policies",69,1184000,1253000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5701426-41043ee017f3f8654bd6ee1c486095e6&start=1184&end=1253","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5701426-41043ee017f3f8654bd6ee1c486095e6/thumbnail_1184000.jpg","/articles/6479316/Georgia/Board-advances-consent-agenda-items-and-hears-first-readings-of-several-personnel-and-technology-policies","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6479316-59f469ad37c4253828a35ad672078f74/orig.mp4?Expires=1775480409&Signature=ZrWKavRYZyXt1TzZ4JHPWO~3Hzd87YAU2uGMrhDL4nmBbZXfkXt-aYgxz2DkCLYZdpX5clfKy4JZiVdyrzL8G-UGGYclrcsRM~B4b4htxvVpIfGtmP-BPiQXfEGcHETkvgmJ-ySk41ALH7fogBfu8GXFKhIxkW~NOnDvhVDXKfSgN2qAt5abnIkpviimBTBzORdMTfi9aplyeMMYUF4aCEk14Ixh5DQqM9ZFI3h6K-i1MWEIal2OLPHM9abRx~YuH7T6YEML6COwihbe705Isnz83zCQSzqxVbKF4Aku96G8hIU-PFlKxV~xSyxc~dyvD-rWhCKHbxfDbZdjw1VGjA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Coffee County Board of Education presented a consent agenda at its Aug. 28 meeting that included acceptance of 21st Century Community Learning grants, a technology purchase for computers at West Green, out-of-state travel for the Hart Group to New York, and the CTA annual budget and needs assessment. Jessica Baker, listed in the meeting as CTA director, presented the budget and needs assessment during the work session earlier that evening.

Board members were shown policy language for public review as part of a first reading. Policies listed in the transcript for first review included IFBG (Internet Acceptable Use), GARH (Employee Leave and Absences), GBRIG (Federal Family Medical Leave Act) and GBRIB (Professional Personnel Sick Leave Bank). Board members were told these changes are at the public-review stage and that this meeting represented a first read rather than final adoption.

A motion was made to accept the consent agenda and was seconded by Miss Johnson. The transcript indicates the motion was moved and seconded and that the board asked for discussion; the provided excerpt does not include a final recorded roll-call vote.

Separately, the board considered personnel recommendations, including additions to the substitute list, and a motion to accept those personnel recommendations was presented. The transcript does not record the final vote on personnel recommendations in the captured excerpt.

No contract award amounts, grant totals, or the specifics of the technology purchase were detailed in the provided transcript excerpt; those items were described at a work session earlier in the evening and transmitted to the board in the consent packet.","At the Aug. 28 meeting the Coffee County Board of Education presented and moved to accept a consent agenda that included grant acceptances, technology purchases and out-of-state travel; policy revisions were presented for first reading and the CTA annual budget and needs assessment was shown by Jessica Baker, CTA director.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6479321,"Coffee County board reviews tentative tax digest; millage rate proposed to drop slightly, called meeting set for Sept. 11",61,1267000,1328000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5701426-41043ee017f3f8654bd6ee1c486095e6&start=1267&end=1328","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5701426-41043ee017f3f8654bd6ee1c486095e6/thumbnail_1267000.jpg","/articles/6479321/Georgia/Coffee-County-board-reviews-tentative-tax-digest-millage-rate-proposed-to-drop-slightly-called-meeting-set-for-Sept-11","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6479321-b7577db9fde938fe14ac489b74ae4dc1/orig.mp4?Expires=1775480409&Signature=obCzqxOv~gXIrI7UGiwkIE8qFaiw1CM~K7S7-mPHZN9l-MLquPeNU6UU1nduHGZhatiHkSLcCNUJL2uRcyCl3T4eMACMb66pEvIjLTsVwQj9NajmxspqVc--94km9~wLEizvxEifsTh-SvUpqWngYNp~TvDqDuZu9Cxk62yyeMOLktIuDXMF2KfHKmIaCbG3ALWEKBBANr7p-7kRRz5OYSCno0Vpok8YRZYN2eaEjZgo6bSRjfrSs9rCVuGJ9huReWytEMcaTJhyDxVe3OaV8hh~tpMW~VVS~7k4nK6SSHGxRtYKDSorlYK~jWzXxrEigysKYXtpVvFk01AEuJdUHA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","District officials presented a tentative tax digest at the Coffee County Board of Education’s Aug. 28 meeting that would slightly roll back the millage rate from 14.561 to 14.493.

Board members said the district has used a rollback in prior years and that the change would be advertised in the newspaper before final approval. Officials also said no further budget action was needed at that moment and that adoption would occur at the September called meeting.

The presentation in the work session preceded the regular meeting discussion; the transcript does not include a final adoption vote in the portion provided. The board did not record additional details about the estimated tax levy impact on individual property owners in the provided excerpt.

The board indicated the Sept. 11 called meeting would be to approve the tax digest and adopt the millage rate; staff said the digest would be advertised in accordance with legal notice requirements prior to that meeting.","At the Aug. 28 meeting the board discussed a tentative tax digest showing a small rollback of the millage rate from 14.561 to 14.493 and scheduled a called meeting for Sept. 11 at 8 a.m. to approve the digest.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":80,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6479325,"Coffee County Board proclaims September as Childhood Cancer Awareness Month",385,799000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5701426-41043ee017f3f8654bd6ee1c486095e6&start=799&end=1184","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5701426-41043ee017f3f8654bd6ee1c486095e6/thumbnail_799000.jpg","/articles/6479325/Georgia/Coffee-County-Board-proclaims-September-as-Childhood-Cancer-Awareness-Month","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6479325-b837a10d39dbe5642e1060036c441c82/orig.mp4?Expires=1775480409&Signature=XPV0AAaAaqRjChBEWWffW-fNTesQwt5ESbBVB5WKw-dgTExI1Kk0W6JD0Mr~f8u0-KLvGat6fWMsIr-~rkpvjSJfmZhUAeQ3L4AaAO9Fd7R966QF6mUS3LpcbuZGfFbIIU9xQtiVqsTI0UjWOvRogJh8cSIzgiELxmFGCJBohwb94GZ7uThrCGuGB3gIG6EyyoiT1mrocksTkU2lUsvuyOSxPs0ZDe0QkAodUVbeZzG6qnkgoFM0G--k1DkTqOqBWFtZ60YhKOc3Zmx0~gKewWr~07-7gLLhod1UIFxqAs0qtArPAa1DNqL4M1Wezo0A3VTIP-S9lw0xBq2w5TD2tw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Coffee County Board of Education read and presented a proclamation at its Aug. 28 regular meeting declaring September as Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and invited public support for a local nonprofit that assists children diagnosed with cancer.

The resolution, read during the meeting, said the Coffee County Childhood Cancer Awareness Group’s goal is to assist children in Coffee and surrounding counties who have been diagnosed with cancer and to increase public awareness. It noted continued research and new treatments are needed and cited a global estimate — “more than 300,000 children diagnosed with cancer each year” — and that cancer is a leading cause of death past infancy for U.S. children.

Board members asked for a motion to approve the proclamation and then moved on to other agenda items. A representative of the childhood cancer awareness group told the board the organization began in 2011 and will hold a silent auction on Sept. 26 to raise funds to assist families and cover needs not met by medical aid.

The group representative said the silent auction draws donated items from local businesses and individuals and that proceeds help families affected in Coffee County and nearby communities. The proclamation text urges school administrators and employees to support the group’s fundraising and awareness efforts.

No final roll-call vote on the proclamation is recorded in the provided transcript excerpt.

The board scheduled no additional public hearing on the proclamation during the portion of the meeting captured in the transcript.","At its Aug. 28 meeting the Coffee County Board of Education read a proclamation supporting a local childhood cancer awareness group and noted a Sept. 26 silent auction to raise funds for affected families.","actionData","errors"]
