Board approves second reading of school meals policy and accepts gifts under Minnesota statute
Summary
The board approved the second reading of revised Policy 5.33 (school meals) and passed a resolution accepting gifts to the district under board policy 706 and Minnesota Statute 465.03 on a roll-call 6–0 vote.
On a motion by Valella and second by Skelly, the board approved the second reading of revised Policy No. 5.33 (school meals). Trustees noted the update largely reflects the free-meal situation; the measure passed by voice vote with no recorded dissent.
Separately the board considered a resolution to accept gifts to the district under board policy 706 and Minnesota Statute 465.03, moved by Kelly McClellan and seconded by Amy Hennen. The board called the roll; members recorded votes as "yes," and the resolution passed on a recorded 6–0 vote. Trustees emphasized that additional community support—such as Panther Foundation and Lions Club contributions—often complements gifts listed on the formal resolution but are not always reflected in the gift ledger.
