Flowing Wells Schools Governing Board — What to Watch

Tuesday, October 27, 2026

Governing Board Meeting (regular) — 6:00 PM


Flowing Wells Board to Review Open Enrollment Trends, Paid Social Media Ads on Oct. 27

The Flowing Wells Governing Board on Tuesday, Oct. 27, will hear a report comparing this year's open enrollment with the prior three years, while separately voting on a new batch of open enrollment requests. Board members will also review the district's social media marketing, including paid ads, preview a consolidation of the district's personnel policies, and consider a payroll voucher of $1,925,891.42.

Board to see how this year's open enrollment compares with the last three years

District administration will present information on open enrollment for the current school year compared with the prior three years. The report shows how many students are coming to Flowing Wells from outside its boundaries, a figure that shapes class sizes and school populations in a district serving 5,201 students (2024-25). On the consent agenda, the board will also consider approving a new set of open enrollment requests.

New Business, information and discussion. The related approval of open enrollment requests (E.5) is on the consent agenda.

District to detail its paid social media advertising and results

Administrators will present a summary of the district's social media marketing strategies and outcomes, including paid advertisements on social media platforms. The presentation gives the board and the public a look at how the district promotes its schools and what those efforts have produced. The item appears on the same agenda as the open enrollment trends report.

New Business, information and discussion. Not on the consent agenda.

Personnel policies for teachers and classified staff would be merged into single rules

The board will preview proposed revisions to policies drawn mostly from Section G of the district's Policy Manual, which covers personnel. Many current Section G policies have separate versions for certified/professional staff and for classified staff. The revisions would consolidate those into single policies covering all employees and eliminate redundant policies, which would change policy titles and reference letters. Administration states the revisions would not substantively change existing policies, and no action will be taken at this meeting.

New Business, information and discussion only. Not on the consent agenda.

$1.9 million payroll voucher up for approval

The board will consider payroll voucher #2808 totaling $1,925,891.42, along with expense vouchers #7218-27 through #7221-27 and #7159-26. Voucher approval authorizes the district's payments to employees and vendors.

On the consent agenda.
