Superintendent announces Intuit donation: fully equipped food truck for CTE students
Summary
Superintendent Majette announced a donated, fully operational food truck from Intuit in partnership with Beacon of Hope to provide hands‑on CTE experience; the truck will debut this Friday at a pre‑game tailgate before the Jug Bowl.
Superintendent Doctor Majette told the board that Intuit, in partnership with Lynchburg Beacon of Hope, donated a fully operational food truck to the district to provide Career and Technical Education (CTE) students hands‑on experience in culinary arts, business and entrepreneurship. “Intuit in partnership with Lynchburg Beacon of Hope... is donating a fully operational food truck to our school division,” Majette said.
Majette said the truck arrived the day of the meeting and that students would reveal its student‑designed branding at a tailgate event before the Jug Bowl on Friday, Sept. 19, at Lynchburg City Stadium, with a later appearance during the game. The superintendent invited board members to attend the tailgate and noted the truck will provide experiential learning and public engagement opportunities for students enrolled in relevant CTE courses.
The announcement was informational; no action was required. The superintendent framed the donation as a partnership opportunity that complements existing CTE programming.
