During a recent government meeting, community contributions to local schools were highlighted, showcasing significant donations that reflect the generosity of local residents and businesses. The meeting began with a brief mention of public participation, although no members of the public were present to address the council.

The council moved on to discuss gifts and donations, with Mrs. Mazzone reading a list of contributions made to various schools. Notable donations included a $50 check from Clifford and Susan Brandt to Hemmel Elementary School, and a substantial donation from Porter and Sons Painting, which provided six large chairs, wall decorations, and paint services valued at approximately $1,465.72 to Bradshaw Mountain Middle School.

Other contributions included a $2,000 donation from Sprouts Healthy Communities Foundation to Bradshaw Mountain High School, and Prescott Valley Chiropractic's donation of Wizard of Oz costumes and decorations valued at $425. The meeting also acknowledged a $1,000 donation of golf equipment from Thomas Hardy and various donations of classroom supplies from Desert Financial Credit Union, totaling an impressive $5,500.

The council expressed gratitude for the community's support, noting that nearly every school received some form of donation this month. Following the discussion of gifts, the council decided to pull an item regarding an updated fee schedule for facilities use for further discussion, which was approved unanimously.

The meeting concluded with the approval of the consent items, excluding the pulled item, reflecting a collaborative effort to enhance educational resources through community involvement.
