07/28/26 Flagler School Board Information Workshop

The Flagler School Board held an information workshop on July 28, 2026, covering a range of topics including school events, student registrations, and transportation updates. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of the annual renewal of the dual enrollment articulation agreement with Daytona State College and the student teacher affiliation agreement with the University of Saint Augustine, aimed at supporting vital staffing needs such as occupational and speech therapy. The transportation department presented route optimization efforts to reduce costs and improve efficiency, including the implementation of real-time GPS tracking and plans to evaluate bus patrol technology for enhanced student safety. Additionally, the board reviewed and discussed several policy updates related to student support organizations (SSOs), direct support organizations (DSOs), and liability insurance requirements for parent-teacher organizations (PTOs), with emphasis on aligning policies to ensure clarity and legal compliance. The board also approved the annual renewal of participation in the Small School District Council Consortium for $3,250. No formal votes were recorded during the workshop, but there was consensus to move forward with policy advertisements and contract renewals.
