IRC-NAACP/SDIRC Workgroup Meeting 5 p.m. 4/21/26

This was a workgroup meeting held by the School District of Indian River County on April 21, 2026, involving the NAACP and district representatives. The primary focus was on reviewing data related to transportation equity, specifically addressing key performance indicators (KPIs) concerning non-discriminatory access to bus services for students. Discussions centered on discrepancies in student ridership data, challenges in tracking participation in extracurricular activities and tutoring programs, and the limitations of current data systems like PowerBI in capturing comprehensive transportation usage and participation demographics. The group emphasized the need for improved data collection and reporting to assess whether transportation services for after-school activities are equitably provided across racial groups. No specific procurement actions, contract awards, or budget decisions were made during this meeting.
