Under the consent agenda, the board is asked to approve Polk State College Collegiate High Schools Salary Schedule Changes for FY 2026-2027. Adjusting salary schedules for the Chain of Lakes, Lakeland, and Lakeland Gateway to College collegiate high schools affects staffing costs and can impact recruitment and retention strategies. While this is primarily a compensation decision, it may interact with HR systems, budgeting tools, and workforce planning as the new schedules are implemented.Vendors offering K‑12/college HRIS, payroll, and staffing analytics solutions may find this a useful signal that the collegiate high schools’ staffing and budgeting models are under active review for the coming year.

No specific HR or payroll vendors are referenced; this is a policy and budget signal rather than an explicit procurement.
