The Levy County School District Board held a meeting on June 9, 2026, where a significant portion of the discussion focused on the contract for athletic trainers. Board members reviewed past costs and the benefits of having trainers on-site, emphasizing the importance of student safety and liability reduction. They discussed funding options, including increasing participation fees and ticket prices, and considered the need for a uniform fee policy across schools. The board acknowledged budget constraints but agreed on the necessity of approving the contract to ensure continued trainer services starting in July.
