Clayton County Board of Education Called Board Meeting | June 15, 2026

The Clayton County Board of Education held a special called meeting on June 15, 2026, primarily to discuss and approve the fiscal year 2027 budget. The board reviewed detailed budget figures, including a general fund of approximately $750.5 million, special revenue funds of $40.1 million, capital projects totaling $479.2 million, debt service funds of nearly $67 million, and an enterprise fund of $50 million, culminating in a total budget of about $1.39 billion. The discussion included the tentative millage rate, proposed to increase from 19.6 to 20 mills, which is necessary to support the budget but subject to final approval and adjustments based on the final tax digest. The board acknowledged that any changes in the millage rate or digest would require a budget amendment. The budget motion was approved with some abstentions and one dissenting vote. The meeting concluded with a unanimous vote to enter executive session, which ended with no recommendations.
