The Preston County Schools Board of Education meeting held on September 22, 2025, addressed several key agenda items, focusing on student attendance, upcoming meetings, and property liquidation efforts.

The meeting began with a discussion regarding student attendance, where it was noted that a list of students eligible for excused absences on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of that week would be sent to Miss Farnell. This notification had been communicated to the public several weeks prior.

Looking ahead, the board scheduled its next meeting for October 13 at 5 PM, which will include a disciplinary hearing at Terre Haute East Preston. The meeting will also feature presentations from district curriculum directors Katie Rush and Berna Layton, along with contributions from the Terraldagh East Preston local school improvement council and curriculum team.

In addition to these discussions, the board provided updates on the liquidation process of the Fellowsville property. A public posting in local newspapers is set to occur on the following days to seek auctioneer services for the property. Legal counsel has been engaged to review the deed, which contains stipulations, including reverter clauses. The board is exploring the possibility of surveying the property to determine if it can be sold as three separate parcels or as one large parcel. There is interest from adjacent landowners in potentially purchasing portions of the property. The board aims to complete the sale by November, ideally before winter sets in.

Overall, the meeting highlighted the board's proactive approach to managing student needs and property assets, with clear plans for future engagements and community involvement.
