Little Flower board authorizes superintendent to apply for new BEDS code to expand services
Summary
The Little Flower UFSD Board unanimously authorized the superintendent to apply for a new BEDS code to support a program modification that would let the district serve younger students and launch a primary program.
The Little Flower Union Free School District Board of Education voted unanimously Jan. 27 to authorize Superintendent Harold Dean to apply for a new BEDS code aimed at expanding services through a program modification that would allow the district to begin serving a younger population.
Board member Steven Gellar moved to authorize the application, with Bridgette Waite seconding; the motion carried 8–0. Superintendent Harold Dean framed the move as part of broader program development work that includes working with an architectural consultant on ARPA funding paperwork and planning to start a new primary program.
Principal Robert Scappatore described the district's steps to prepare for younger students, saying the school has already submitted an additional BEDS code application as part of the initiative and is creating program modifications to support enrollment shifts. The board’s authorization instructs the superintendent to pursue the formal application with State Education authorities; no effective date or funding commitment was specified in the discussion.
