Hanover trustees approve summer school, an after-the-fact overnight trip and accept community donations

At its April 14 meeting the Hanover Board of Trustees approved several items requiring formal action: the summer school program, an after-the-fact overnight field trip for the Hanover Central track team, and the acceptance of multiple community donations.

The chair moved to approve the summer school program; the motion was seconded and roll-call responses recorded in the transcript. Named affirmative responses recorded in the transcript include Bial Key, Verdam, Hess and Kuzma.

The board next considered an after-the-fact overnight trip for the Hanover Central track team to the Indiana State Fairgrounds in Indianapolis for the state meet (03/27/2026–03/28/2026). The staff member noted the trip required formal board action because it took place after the event; the roll-call contains named affirmative responses (Bielke; Britney) and multiple additional "Yes" responses as recorded in the transcript.

The board also voted to accept donations summarized by the staff member: $100 to the Hanover "Lunches of Love" program from the Fraternal Order of Eagles ladies auxiliary; $250 to the Puzzle Club from the Jane Ball Family Teacher Association; $250 to the Tree Huggers Club from the Jane Ball Family Teacher Association; $250 to after-school enrichment from the Jane Ball Family Teacher Association; and $25 to Hanover Lunches of Love from an anonymous donor. "Thank you everyone, especially the Jane Ball Family Teacher Association," the chair said.

Roll call for the donations contained named affirmative responses in the transcript (Yap; Bernadette; Haskell; Kuzma). The transcript does not provide a clear, complete numeric tally for each recorded vote beyond the named affirmative responses it captures in the roll-call exchanges. The board adjourned after concluding business.
