Committee reviews unexpended grants and approves school‑choice slot changes after freshman enrollment uptick
Summary
Administration reported unexpended grant balances (FY22 mask fund ~$13,870; one‑time pandemic assistance $174,800) and outlined allowable uses and rollovers. The committee approved requested school‑choice slot adjustments at the high school after a freshman class enrollment increase.
Business manager Nancy summarized unexpended grants and revolving fund balances. She identified two FY22 unexpended funds: the mask funding balance (about $13,870) and the one‑time pandemic assistance fund balance ($174,800). She said the pandemic assistance funds can be used for one‑time purchases (citing the truck purchase) and that some FY24 grants include allowable rollovers extending into FY26.
Administration also presented updated school‑choice slot counts for the high school after unexpectedly high freshman enrollment (reported as 114 students in the freshman class). Mr. King had submitted updated school‑choice numbers and administration requested committee approval to adjust slots for graduating classes 2025–2028; motion by Britney, second by Bobby; the committee approved the change by voice vote.
Nancy also provided a brief FY25 year‑to‑date financial overview, noting some personnel line‑item pressures (occupational therapy, speech/language) and that grant approvals and encumbrances remain pending. The business office will continue to monitor overages and encumbrances and provide updates.
Next steps: Administration will monitor grant spending, encumber outstanding awards, and report back to the committee with more detailed line‑item analysis as positions are filled and grants are approved.
