I am very concerned,\" Stone told an audience of about 300 at Mainland High School on Thursday night. \"And now, the (substitute teachers') money was cut. What's going to happen now?\" Gabrielle Boudreau, a Mainland junior who's taking courses at Daytona State College, said it's important to keep her dual enrollment program intact.

History of the site*Volusia County Community College, a school for black students starting work on a college degree and those seeking vocational training, opened in 1958 in a rented apartment building on what is now Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard.*The college moved to a new location at Loomis Avenue and Lockhart Street in 1960, eventually becoming Florida's second largest two-year college for black students. The Florida Department of Education accredited the college in 1963.*Efforts to merge that college with what is now Daytona State College began in 1965, and the Volusia County Community College complex became part of the county's public school district, which converted it to office space.*The complex was renamed the John H. Smiley Educational Development Center in 1968 to honor School Superintendent John Smiley, who announced that year he wouldn't seek re-election to the post he'd filled since 1957. The moving began in mid-October, [Tim Huth] said, with nearly half of the 138 employees at the Educational Development Center being reassigned to the School Administrative Complex in DeLand, which also includes the former Dempsie Brewster Elementary School that's now used for offices.

We touched base this morning to talk about possible alternatives we might have,\" Mainland athletics director Dick Toth said. \"We're just waiting to see what the storm does and what the county decides.\" More than likely we're going towards a Saturday game instead of a Thursday game,\" Trinity Christian athletics director Brian Soukup said. \"If the (storm's) on a fast track we will lean to playing on Saturday instead of Thursday.\"

There were issues we needed to hear about directly from the athletics directors, so we can consider what our best options are,\" Huth said. \"We wanted to know where they think cuts can be made. They understand everything needs to be discussed.\" There's also the possibility varsity competition in some sports would be eliminated, though Friday Huth called that \"a last resort.\" We want to have all the information then so we can make a presentation to the superintendent,\" Huth said. \"After that, we'll see how things look and be able to make some decisions.\"

  Most Volusia County high school graduations will be packed into the Ocean Center over Memorial Day weekend next year, while Flagler County's two public high schools are taking a chance Mother Nature won't rain on their outdoor ceremonies. Flagler County school officials know that's a chance they're taking, but they've scheduled graduations at their on-campus stadiums. [Nancy Willis] said she never considered moving up graduation to fit the Ocean Center schedule because \"we would have to let our seniors out two weeks early. We can't do that; we're still teaching then.\"

Final details about Volusia's pilot program will be available at the end of August, Deputy Superintendent Tim Huth said. It will feature only basketball -- the most requested sport among principals surveyed this spring. It was at principals' urging that district officials reconsidered the program.
