The Mt. Vernon Community School Corporation held a work session on September 14, 2026, primarily discussing the high school expansion and related capital improvement planning. The board reviewed enrollment projections indicating a need to significantly expand the high school facility by 2031-2032 due to anticipated doubling of student population since the last renovation in 2007. They discussed potential funding strategies including requests for dollars from the Hancock County RDC, possible capital referendums, and the use of cash reserves to manage debt service rates. The board also considered forming a community advisory committee to collaboratively plan the high school renovation and expansion. Additionally, the meeting covered the district's debt structure, tax rates, and the impact of potential legislative changes on school funding. No formal votes or contract awards were reported, but several action items related to planning and community engagement for the capital project were identified.
