Agreement between the School Board of Okaloosa County and CenturyLink for internet services to the Okaloosa Detention Center (DJJ) location in Crestview, in the amount of $8,868.00. Public Content This is a one year agreement with CenturyLink for the District to obtain 10 Mbps internet for the DJJ instructional facilities in Crestview.
