Board approves 2025-26 mental health assistance allocation plan to meet state assurances
Summary
The Clay County School Board voted 4-0 to approve the district's 2025-26 Mental Health Assistance Allocation Plan, a state-required document describing assurances and spending for the program.
The Clay County School Board approved the district's 2025-26 Mental Health Assistance Allocation Plan during its July 22 special workshop, voting 4-0 to accept the plan required by the state. The approval came after staff explained the plan documents the assurances the district must meet under state guidance and describes how the allocated funds will be spent. Staff noted the state provides the mental health allocation annually and requires the district to submit the plan by Aug. 1; in 2025 the district said it received the state's allocation information late, about a week and a half before the submission deadline. Board Member Gilhausen moved to approve the 2025-26 Mental Health Assistance Allocation Plan; the motion was seconded and the board voted unanimously among members present. Board Member Clark was not present and recorded absent. Staff described the submission as compliance with state assurances and said the plan aligns with district policy. No changes to funding amounts were reported at the meeting; staff said there was no increase in the state's mental health allocation for this year.
