Board approves Head Start financial report and hears director's update on enrollment and services
Summary
On Nov. 6 the Scott County School Board approved the September 2025 Head Start financial report and heard an October program report covering enrollment (Head Start 105, Early Head Start 32 as reported in materials), grant awards and program operations.
The Scott County School Board approved the Head Start financial report for September 2025 and received an October director's report summarizing enrollment, funding and program operations.
The materials presented (Appendix F and supporting financial statements) show federal base funding for the period and a supplemental nutrition award added on Sept. 23, 2025. Documents in the meeting packet list total Head Start and Early Head Start federal funding and match requirements for the grant year and detail monthly expenditures, in‑kind contributions and program budgets. The packet shows federal award lines and a combined federal and non‑federal total of $1,463,153 for the 7/1/25‑12/31/25 period in the Head Start grant documents provided.
Program staff reported cumulative enrollment figures: federal funded enrollment totals reported in the packet were 105 Head Start slots and 32 Early Head Start slots (137 total funded enrollment) and the director’s narrative reported active enrollments, attendance percentages and ongoing screening and health activities.
The director’s report summarizes health screenings (vision, hearing, dental scheduling), mental‑health supports, child‑development monitoring, Worksite/Field trip activity and family‑engagement events. The board approved the financial report on a motion by Mr. Bill Houseright, seconded by Mrs. Patricia Edwards (all aye).
What happens next: Staff will continue to manage grant budget, match documentation and in‑kind tracking and will implement scheduled health and screening events; the board will receive financial and program updates per normal reporting schedules.
