Summary

Three short social clips that summarize the most newsworthy moments: superintendent data on special-education enrollment, finance officer's cash-flow warning, and the president's recusal on the facilities-policy vote.

1) Superintendent on special-education trends (15–60 seconds): Doctor Lawson summarized district data on students with intensive needs and alternate assessment limits. Quote: "The number of students enrolled... has more than doubled from 538 students in school year '19 to 1,120 in school year '26." Use clip from superintendent's remarks and the slide summarizing the alternate-assessment 1% cap.

2) Finance briefing: tax timing and charter payment impact (30–90 seconds): Mister McCoy explains delayed Newcastle County tax bills and how a first charter transfer created a November negative revenue projection. Quote: "We have negative revenues of 253,000... our tax receipts are $2,100,000, but those tax receipts are offset by our first charter payment transfer of $2,353,000." Use this clip for a concise explainer on cash flow.

3) Recusal and transparency moment (15–30 seconds): President Heller's recusal from the facilities-use vote. Quote: "I volunteer for a nonprofit that uses BSD facilities for our programming, so I don't want there to have any appearance of a conflict." Use clip accompanying the roll-call vote to show governance transparency.

Each clip is drawn only from on-record meeting remarks.
