SPECIAL MEETING AND WORKSHOP - Jun 23 2026

The CitrusSchools special meeting and workshop held on June 23, 2026, focused primarily on educational services, human resources, and health insurance updates. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of a second amendment to the contract with Knowledge Pillars Education Incorporated to expand industry certifications for middle school students, funded by a Perkins grant. The board also reviewed and discussed policies related to after-school events, including security staffing guidelines and crowd control training requirements, which have implications for future contracting of safety personnel. Additionally, a detailed presentation on the district's self-insured health insurance plan highlighted rising medical claims costs, strategies to control pharmacy expenses through partnerships with Rural Health, and considerations for plan redesign to manage costs. No new contract awards or RFPs were announced, but the meeting included motions to approve agenda items and instructional support recommendations. Policy updates related to school safety and student protections were also discussed, potentially affecting future procurement of related services.
