William Floyd Learning Center

Launched in 2017, the William Floyd Learning Center is an alternative elementary school program that serves approximately 80 elementary-aged students (kindergarten through fifth grade) in need of a more intensive building-wide management system and a smaller student-to-teacher ratio. The William Floyd Learning Center is committed to developing young scholars with active and creative minds to become compassionate and caring life-long learners. Through positive behavioral supports and rigorous classroom instruction we will stress the total development of each scholar: socially, emotionally and academically.

At the April 16, 2024 budget adoption meeting, the William Floyd Board of Education adopted its proposed budget for the 2024-25 school year, which calls for a slight increase of less than one percent (0.99%), which estimates to a yearly increase of $92 (0.25 cents per day) for the averaged assessed home in the community (the average assessed home in the community is 1,995). This modest proposed increase, which maintains and adds programs, comes on the heels of the past three years in which the district held the budget to a zero increase in 2021-22, a nearly $5 million reduction in the tax levy in 2022-23, and a $17.5 million reduction in the tax levy in 2023-24.
