Summary

At the May 6 agenda review, FLVS staff outlined required annual reports and forms — including the K–12 evidence‑based reading plan and a mental‑health plan — a franchise report that documented 220,205 half‑credit enrollments in 2023–24, proposed evaluation instrument updates and several finance agenda items to appear at the June 3 meeting.

Florida Virtual School staff on May 6 previewed a set of annual reports, policy reviews and finance matters the board will consider at the June 3 quarterly meeting, including the K–12 evidence‑based reading plan, the district franchise report, evaluation instrument updates and budget items.

Dr. Algaze told trustees the K–12 comprehensive evidence‑based reading plan must be approved by the board and submitted by June 15 so FLVS can receive its share of the state’s evidence‑based reading instruction allocation. He said the Florida Department of Education will release allocations by July 1 once plans are submitted. The board was also told FLVS’s 2023–24 franchise report will be filed with the commissioner and that FLVS’s 38 district virtual schools completed 220,205 half‑credit enrollments in the 2023–24 school year.

Staff described revisions to employee evaluation instruments. Dr. Algaze said required revisions to the FLVS instructional evaluation instrument were submitted to the Florida Department of Education in March 2025; the department may require technical changes that would not require board approval, but any substantive changes ordered by the department would be returned to the board for approval. A separate support‑staff evaluation instrument was updated for categorical weights and core competency definitions and will be presented for board approval.

The facilities department has identified fully depreciated or excess assets for disposal, and the proposed disposition will be carried out "in a manner that best fits the organization's needs up to and including an open sale, donation to another school district, or otherwise as specified in Florida statutes," staff said. Proceeds from any sale will be accounted for in the general fund.

On finance, staff said three items will appear on the June agenda: a fiscal year 24‑25 budget amendment (amendment No. 4) to reconcile the current budget, the fiscal year 25‑26 proposed budget, and an accounts‑receivable debt write‑off request. Corey Wheeler, senior director of financial and treasury services, will present those items on June 3. Staff also said several board policy revisions will be posted for a first reading and public notice of hearing, and that the student code of conduct will be presented for first reading.

Most of these items are routine annual obligations required by state law or board bylaws; the board will hear them and take action where required at the June 3 meeting, staff said.
