Board accepts donations to athletics, arts and classroom programs
Summary
The board read and approved a slate of donations — including gifts to elementary schools, Austin High athletics, choir, and technical programs — in accordance with board policy 706. The board voted to accept the donations at the meeting.
Tom Lambert, executive director of finance and operations, read a list of recent donations to the district, including: $2,050 from Hormel to elementary programs; $600 to Austin High School student counseling; $2,000 to boys hockey from Austin Eagles; a welding machine and mask for the welding program donated by Mississippi Welder Supply; and other gifts to choir, athletics and scholarship funds.
A board member moved to approve acceptance of the donations and the motion passed. The presenter said the donations comply with district policy 706 and asked the board to accept them into district accounts so staff can allocate funds and assets to the indicated programs.
No additional financial details or restrictions attached to the donations were discussed at the meeting; donors and designated recipients were read aloud during the presentation.
