Superintendent Broskie presented the routine legislative policy updates provided by NEOLA (school board policy and administrative services provider). He explained that NEOLA has a legal team that continuously monitors changes in state law and State Board of Education rules and provides suggested policy revisions to help keep the District's policies current. District staff reviews the suggested revisions and applies them to the District's existing policies while maintaining the Board's previously adopted language.

Board Member Hanson asked about the review process for the suggested revisions. Superintendent Broskie explained that the updates are recommendations from NEOLA and are reviewed by District staff before being presented to the Board. Chief of Staff Kelly Watt added that NEOLA may also recommend rescinding and replacing policies when appropriate.

After confirming there were no additional questions or suggested changes, the Board reached consensus to advertise the proposed policy revisions. The revisions will appear on the June 25, 2026 agenda, followed by the required 28 day public review period before returning to the Board for a public hearing and consideration of adoption on July 23, 2026.

Superintendent Broskie reviewed the agenda for the upcoming June 25 School Board meeting, highlighting the America 250 celebration, recognitions, student presentations, the Family Code of Conduct public hearing, legislative policy updates, the Five Year Educational Plan Survey and routine consent agenda items. Operations also provided brief updates on new contracts, renewals and the continued removal of portable classrooms.

Closed to public.

Superintendent Broskie highlighted the ongoing Clay Leadership program currently taking place, noting that approximately 700 teachers are participating across secondary and elementary sessions. He emphasized the District’s continued focus on developing teacher leaders at all levels, not only those in formal administrative roles, and the importance of strengthening leadership capacity within school teams.

He also referenced the District’s emphasis on the School Improvement Plan process, noting it as a key component of instructional focus and continuous improvement efforts. Superintendent Broskie recognized this past year as the strongest academic performance year in District history and attributed success to multiple contributing factors, including leadership development opportunities and a sustained focus on school improvement planning.

He commended District staff and teachers for their participation in summer leadership activities and acknowledged those who help organize and support the program, noting its continued impact after six years of implementation.

During Board Member comments, Board Member Hanson suggested reviewing the District’s participation in the Florida School Boards Association to determine whether all memberships remain necessary. Board Chair Skipper and Superintendent Broskie noted that participation may impact the District’s Board certification designation if full membership participation is not maintained, and agreed additional review would be appropriate. Board Member Clark shared positive feedback regarding recent Florida School Boards Association events and resources.

Board Member Gilhousen commented on the America 250 mobile museum and suggested it as a potential student field trip opportunity.

Board Chair Erin Skipper introduced the discussion of the District’s ongoing process for reviewing challenged library materials and related selection practices. Chief Academic Officer Roger Dailey provided an update on the process and noted continued efforts to maintain consistency and strengthen procedures within current policy and legal requirements. Chairperson Skipper inquired about elementary book purchasing and potential use of vetted publishers, and staff noted that elementary media specialists are actively reviewing and managing collections through established review processes and vendor supported materials selection. Board Members Hanson and Clark expressed appreciation for the District’s continued efforts to review and refine library and selection procedures.
