Summary

Trustees said they will meet with booster club presidents and treasurers to collect bylaws, financial statements and contact details and to ensure booster‑club fundraising is transparent and that donors and the district are protected.

Board members said the district has had a booster‑club policy in place for some time but has not consistently followed it and that they plan to meet with booster‑club presidents and treasurers to improve oversight.

The Chair said the goal is not to be punitive but to ensure transparency and protect donors and the school district by collecting officers’ contact information, bylaws, fundraising plans and financial statements. Board members discussed meeting in early summer and agreed to schedule sessions with interested booster‑club leaders.

The board characterized this as an effort to align practice with existing policy rather than to impose new restrictions.
