Enterprise City Schools announced at last Tuesdayâs Board of Education Meeting that the school system is set to receive $8.6 million from a Public School and College Authority bond created to address capital project needs in public school systems and colleges across the state of Alabama.
These funds are part of a larger program spearheaded by Gov. Kay Ivey to provide over $298 million to educational institutions for needed structural repairs, safety improvements and upgrades in technology for educational purposes that have gone untouched due to lack of funds.
âI am thrilled that the PSCA is able to provide these funds to worthwhile projects throughout the state,â State Finance Director Kelly Butler said in a November press release when the funds were announced. âI am grateful to the legislature for authorizing the sale and to Governor Ivey for her leadership in supporting this transaction.â

According to Harbor Beach Superintendent Sean Bishop, the district s audit went well. It was a clean audit, Bishop said after the meeting. We received the highest rating possible.
According to Bishop, every area of the district s finances were inspected and proven accurate.
The actual audit took place in the late summer and the board was scheduled to receive a presentation in the fall, but due to the pandemic the face-to-face presentation was delayed. The board had hoped to receive the presentation in person before Dec. 31, the deadline to approve the audit. However, due to the pandemic, Zoom was the next best option.

A recent Duncan Public School Board of Education Meeting provided the board with updates about the district website when it comes to COVID-19 as well as brought about electing new members to the Oklahoma Public School Investment Interlocal Cooperative (OPSIIC) positions.
During the meeting, Dr. Tom Deighan, Superintendent, discussed the district update with the school board.
Deighan said with the recommendations of the board, they will update their website with COVID-19 numbers every month.
âWe are adding this to the website, this week, under the COVID tab,â Deighan said. âWhat weâre going to offer is a weekly average of how many COVID absences.â
