District news
$353,000 in county building money went unclaimed
What happened
In January 2026 staff told the board that, after a finance director change, the district never drew down $353,000 in county capital money approved for 2024-25. The board voted to ask the commissioners to reallocate it.
Why it matters to families
That money pays for repairs and equipment; losing it would mean fewer fixes at aging schools.
The evidence
Jan 12, 2026 recording: 'We did not draw down the $353,000 for capital outlay last year.'
