Perryton ISD board approves donor‑funded video scoreboard and scorer table for Ranger gym
Summary
Board approved purchase of video scoreboards and a scoring table for the Ranger gym using external contributions; the equipment will include video capability, an app for remote score updates and sponsor advertising.
The Perryton Independent School District Board of Trustees approved the purchase of video scoreboards and a matching video scoring table for the Ranger gym using external contributions.
Presenters said the equipment will replace the current scoreboards with large, matchable video boards that can display live or recorded video, student promotions and sponsor advertising. The system will include a downloadable app that provides real‑time score updates as the score table operator enters data. The presenters noted the project was initiated by Josh Hernandez and that local donors will fund the purchase in exchange for sponsorship advertising spots.
Board discussion described staffing needs for the new gear: two people at the scorer’s table (one entering scores on an iPad and one cueing video/sponsor content) and a potential third person if live recording of games is added. The presenters also discussed using the system as a CTE training opportunity so students could be trained to operate the system.
A motion to approve the purchase using external contributions was moved and seconded and carried 5-0. The transcript records the board’s emphasis that no PISD general‑fund dollars are being used for the scoreboard purchase and that donor sponsorships will include advertising agreements for a specified term noted in the meeting as 10 years.
