# HCSD Board Meeting 11/02/2026

The Hancock County School District Board of Education met November 2, 2026. The board approved the agenda with an added South Hancock Elementary fundraiser. Administrators reported that the baseball-field project remains on schedule despite additional dirt work, and that playgrounds had been installed and a new pre-K classroom was underway. A $500,000 budget figure was mentioned in connection with project contingency and dirt work, though the transcript does not make the allocation details clear. Digital signs also came in higher than projected because electrical service had to be added at school locations. No contract award or vendor selection was identified. Officials said bond sale and bidding activity was expected to begin in April; a three-mill note was expected to return for approval on November 5, and bus and technology plans were being finalized.

The meeting also included an address about the district’s power situation, but the transcript provides no substantive details about it. Other discussion covered enrollment, student attendance and achievement, special education, and school performance. The board took up financial-report amendments, policy updates, and a resolution concerning retained legal counsel, although the transcript is too garbled to establish the details or vote outcomes for those items.
