CLARKESVILLE, Ga. — The Habersham County Board of Education will meet Monday, June 15, with a full agenda that includes final approval of the Fiscal Year 2027 budget, consideration of the district’s tax levy resolution and several policy updates.

The meeting will begin at 6 p.m. at the Habersham County Board of Education office.

Among the most significant items on the agenda is approval of the district’s final FY 2027 budgets for all funds, along with associated pay scales, job descriptions and the district’s master fundraiser list.

Board members are also expected to consider a tax levy resolution for Fiscal Year 2027 based on a millage rollback rate of 9.048 mills.

The board will review a resolution to reclassify certain General Fund expenses to ESPLOST and consider a resolution declaring the results of the recent Education Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (ESPLOST) referendum.

Several education-related items are also scheduled for consideration, including supplemental instructional resources required under the Georgia Early Literacy Act, school nutrition vendors and meal prices for the upcoming school year, and the district’s FY 2027 Career, Technical and Agricultural Education (CTAE) Local Plan.

The consent agenda includes a request to allow Habersham County Fire and EMS to use the former Fairview School building for training purposes.

Board members will also consider the first reading of revisions to Policy JCDAG, which addresses bullying, and Policy BCBI, which governs public participation in board meetings.

Additional agenda items include personnel recommendations, approval of the district’s financial report and consideration of a surplus property list submitted by the maintenance department.
