Approve as advertised policy revisions to School Board Policy 6.01, Educational and Ancillary Facilities.  The current School Board Policy does not contain a configuration and sizing entry for a middle school facility in Section 6.01 (Support Services: Educational and Ancillary Facilities), Part K (School Size), Subpart 1.a (Minimum) and Subpart 2.a (Maximum).  This configuration is required to be in policy in order to proceed with the movement of the 6th grade to the Oakleaf Junior High and Lake Asbury Junior High schools which would create a 6th-8th grade facility (e.g. Middle School).  This change will go into effect for the 2025-2026 school year.

The configuration of a Middle School and its minimum and maximum enrollment size to add to the policy are as follows:

Section 6.01.K.1.a: minimum enrollment

Middle (6-8) - 800

Section 6.01 K.2.a: maximum enrollment

Middle (6-8) - 1,700

No action would result in the inability to proceed with the creation of middle schools in the district.

The Clay County School Board has approved several Policy Advertisements for amendments in the past.
