The original policy was written to develop the definition of capacity.   At the time, we had no policy for the use or replacement of relocatables.  It was later determined that permanent and relocatable student stations would be used in the determination of capacity.  The amendment to the policy will bring the policy in line with the current definition of capacity.

49. C-4 (Bolla) Clay County Strategic Plan Strategy 6-1, Standardize Planning Methods

Minutes: 

No action was required on this item.  The project was originally approved through the Strategic Plan and the item was brought before the board for information due to the increased cost.  Mr. Moore explained that in order to fully meet all the software demands created by concurrency and growth, the additional software is desperately needed.  The present programs are inefficient and the existing software does not support the programs needed.  Staff  will proceed with the planned purchases.

Attachment: Vystar agreement.pdf
Minutes: 

Mrs. Vallencourt, as well as other board members, expressed concern about setting a precedent with naming the Academy after Vystar.  Paul Parker, Director of Career and Technical Education, explained that this is a common practice in other Florida counties for attracting such partnerships with businesses.  Mr. Parker will gather information from other counties who are doing this, and the item will be delayed until the March meeting.
