(Flagler County, Fla.) - The Flagler Schools Board unanimously approved the selection of the two newest Principals for Flagler Schools at their monthly board meeting. The Board signed off on Flagler Schools Superintendent LaShakia Moore's recommended appointments of Mike Rinaldi as the next principal of Matanzas High School (MHS) and Katie Hansen as the next principal of Buddy Taylor Middle School (BTMS).

Michael from Flagler County Mosquito Control has a powerful message and a big 'ask' from us all.
“We’ve been protecting this community for 73 years and the most dangerous threat today, Michael explained, comes from what are known as container mosquitoes—mosquitoes that breed in small, hidden collections of water. These insects can lay eggs in as little as a quarter-inch of standing water, often in everyday items found in residential yards.

But what you may not know is the journey that brought him here to Palm Coast. His story isn’t just about pipes and fittings—it’s about grit, growth, and the bold decision to break away from the expected. It’s about walking away from a path laid out by circumstance and instead carving a new one toward purpose and passion.

This is the story of how Tony found his way—not just to a career he loves, but to a life he's built from the ground up.

Tucked away in the quiet ponds of Flagler County, a quiet but vital discovery is stirring excitement in Florida’s ecological circles. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) recently announced a major finding: an unexpectedly dense population of striped newts has been uncovered in the region, marking it as one of the most significant hotspots for the species in the entire state. With their vibrant markings and complex life cycles, these elusive amphibians are proving that even the most overlooked wetlands can harbor extraordinary biodiversity.
