Clay County Schools report: CTE building construction begun; testing and events scheduled
Summary
District officials reported construction has begun on a new CTE building behind the high school tennis courts and announced testing dates, parent-teacher conferences, and recent FFA accomplishments at the March 13 meeting.
District administrators at the March 13 Clay County Schools Board meeting reported that construction has begun on a new career and technical education (CTE) building, and they updated the board on upcoming testing dates, parent-teacher conferences, and extracurricular achievements.
A district speaker said construction work for the new CTE building has begun “right behind the tennis courts,” with ground excavation and initial foundation filling already underway. The speaker said they expect visible building progress “before very long.”
Administrators also reported that junior ACT testing is scheduled for next Tuesday at Clay County High School; parent-teacher conferences were announced for a coming Thursday from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. (the transcript did not specify the calendar date). Spring athletics were underway — baseball, softball and tennis seasons were noted as started — and the board congratulated boys’ and girls’ basketball teams for reaching substate competition. District staff also reported that several students registered to vote with assistance from Monica Davis and the Clay County Election Commission.
FFA achievements were highlighted: the school’s mechanics/ad-mechanics team placed first in the district in one event, the overall team placed third in the district, and two students, Kylie Tinsley and Caitlin Smith, received state FFA scholarships.
Administrators announced additional school improvements including new playground enclosures and upgraded keyless-entry systems. The board acknowledged the reports and moved to other agenda items.
