# Florence 1 School Board Meeting-July 9, 2026

Florence 1 Schools Board of Trustees meeting held July 9, 2026. The board recognized student athletes and coaches, then heard a public request for written procedures for naming district facilities, including a request to name Williams Middle School after John Henry Kearny. No contract awards, solicitations, vendor selections, capital projects, or other procurement activity were identified. The board approved a consent motion covering financial statements, minutes from the June regular and budget-hearing meetings, personnel, and a field-trip request; the transcript does not capture a separate vote count for those items.

The board approved a memorandum of agreement with FMU to continue the Spanish immersion program at West Florence High School, providing a pathway to college credit and the state Seal of Biliteracy. It also received the first reading of policy JFAB and its administrative rule on admission of nonresident students, drafted to comply with a recently enacted state interdistrict-transfer law; a second reading was planned for August. No vote was taken on the first reading.
