Overview

• The Revenue Advisory Task Force met Monday at the VanHoose Education Center to review operations costs and possible revenue sources.
• Superintendent Brian Yearwood said he is not seeking a tax increase, and the task force will later recommend a 2026–27 tax rate.
• Chief Operations Officer Rob Fulk reported deferred maintenance of roughly $2.5 billion and said construction and renovation bids are running far above earlier estimates.
• JCPS remains $188 million short and may sell part of an $80 million investment portfolio to cover payroll if cash runs low.
• Yearwood has proposed $132 million in primarily central-office cuts and is pursuing bids for an independent audit following board concerns about past briefings.
