Caroline County Special Called School Board Meeting June 29th 2026

The Caroline County Public Schools Special Called School Board Meeting on June 29, 2026, focused primarily on the adoption of the fiscal year 2027 operational budget. The board reviewed updates to the state budget, including increased funding for special education, at-risk student populations, and infrastructure, as well as adjustments to average daily membership (ADM) projections. The board approved the FY27 budget based on level funding appropriated by the Board of Supervisors, with plans to revisit and amend the budget once the state budget is finalized and the Virginia Department of Education provides updated funding calculations. Discussions included the impact of state funding caveats, local matching requirements, and the timing of budget revisions. The meeting also addressed ongoing audit processes and the need for future budget workshops to discuss salary adjustments and potential bond referendums for school construction funding. Additionally, personnel matters were handled in a closed session with subsequent approval of the superintendent's personnel agenda.
