Columbia County School Board Meeting - January 13, 2026

The Columbia County School Board held a meeting on January 13, 2026, which included routine proceedings such as the invocation, pledge of allegiance, and recognition of Summers Elementary's VPK program. The board approved personnel matters and consent agenda items without discussion. A notable procurement-related update was the announcement of an upcoming Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for architectural services to support the Columbia High School rebuild project, with the RFQ set to be released the following day and run for three weeks. This represents a key step in the capital improvement efforts for the district's facilities. Additionally, the board noted an increase in graduation rates and scheduled the next meeting for January 27 at 9:00 AM.
