Anderson 01 reviews finances, approves 2025–26 calendar and PTSO forms

School finance staff reported September balances and recent revenue figures and asked the board to approve routine administrative items including the 2025–26 calendar and several PTSO/booster forms.

Finance staff told the board the district holds about 47 certificates of deposit totaling roughly $10.67 million with approximately $292,000 in interest as of Sept. 30. The building program account showed about $27 million in revenue and $14.6 million in expenses, leaving a building-program balance just under $12.8 million, staff said. Food service revenue and losses from a recent hurricane were also discussed; staff estimated about $76,000 in projected lost revenue and roughly $51,000 in discarded food.

The administration recommended approval of the 2025–26 school calendar to align with neighboring districts. The board moved to vote; the calendar was put to a vote and recorded as approved in the meeting record.

Staff also asked the board to approve three PTO/PTSO/booster-club forms (including officer rosters and background-check procedures for treasurers) and recommended the board approve those submittals. Administration additionally proposed moving excess general fund balance above the district’s 25% target into the capital fund to support building projects; staff said auditors and finance would finalize specifics.

Board members asked clarifying questions about timing and the use of fund balance; no additional motions were recorded beyond approval of the calendar and the PTSO forms. Administration noted it would provide more detailed information on any fund-balance transfer when available.
