🎉 BIG NEWS, CLAY COUNTY! 🎉
Clay County District Schools has officially been named one of only 18 Academically High-Performing School Districts in the entire state of Florida for the 2025–2026 school year by the Florida Department of Education!
This prestigious recognition reflects our dedication to academic excellence, operational accountability, and student success across every classroom.
To earn and maintain this status, school districts must meet rigorous state benchmarks:
Academic Excellence: Earn an "A" district grade for two consecutive years without any district-operated school receiving an "F."
Classroom Focus: Fully comply with state class size requirements.
Fiscal Responsibility: Maintain clean annual financial audits with no material weaknesses or compliance issues.
This milestone is a direct result of the commitment of our teachers, support professionals, administrators, and district leadership under Superintendent David Broskie, paired with the hard work of our students and the steadfast support of our families and community.
Thank you for believing in our students and making Clay County a leader in Florida public education! 📚✨

On November 3, Clay County voters will consider the renewal of the existing One Mill ad valorem funding for four years (July 1, 2027 – June 30, 2031).
Because this measure is a renewal of the existing operating millage, it continues current funding without increasing tax rates. Revenues are strictly dedicated to two operational priorities:
School Safety: Funding law enforcement contracts for campus officers.
Employee Compensation: Providing competitive pay to retain and attract quality teachers and support staff.
All expenditures are subject to review by an independent Citizens’ Oversight Committee. Visit oneclay.net/renewal for more information.

⚡ Charge Into Fire Safety! ⚡
It’s Fire Prevention Week, and this year’s theme is all about safe charging! As technology plays a big role in our everyday lives, we are reminding our OneClay community that safe charging is a superpower.
🔌 Plug in. Power up. Stay safe.
To keep our homes and schools safe, make sure you are using your 6 Charging Superpowers:
• Cheap charger? Don't chance it. Use the cord and charger that came with your device or one approved by the manufacturer.
• Soft surface? Hard pass. Charge on a hard, flat surface like a table, desk, or bare floor.
• Fully charged? Time to unplug. Unplug your device when it is fully charged.
• For tools and rides, charge outside. Charge large items like e-bikes, scooters, and power tools outside when possible, and never block exits when charging.
• Feels hot? Stop using it. Stop using your device if it feels very hot, starts to swell, smells strange, leaks, smokes, or makes popping or hissing sounds.
• On a flight? Keep it in sight. Keep devices where you can see them while charging on an airplane, and tell a flight attendant if you notice a problem.
