The New Castle Community School Board of Trustees approved a transfer from the Education Fund to the Operations Fund during its Sept. 8 meeting. The motion to approve the transfer was made by Vice President Nan Polk, seconded by Member Jamey Marcum, and carried 5-0.
Also on the agenda, Chief Financial Officer Megan Bell presented notice of three public hearings: the 2026 Budget Hearing, the 2026 Capital Projects Hearing, and the 2026 Bus Replacement Hearing. The minutes record these hearings as scheduled items; the transcript provides no budget amounts, proposed transfer totals, nor dates for the hearings beyond their listing on the meeting agenda.
The minutes show no public comments on the budget items during this session. The board's approval of the interfund transfer was recorded as a formal action; the transcript does not specify whether the transfer requires further state reporting or approval beyond board action.
