The Everett School Committee voted unanimously on March 16 to accept a $750 Everett Cultural Council grant to support Whittier School’s production of Willy Wonka and, later in the meeting, approved submitting and paying bills and payroll.

Grant approval

Superintendent asked the committee to accept a $750 grant secured by Whittier teacher Kristen Coffee to purchase costumes and set materials for the Whittier musical. A motion to accept was made, seconded and approved by roll call with all present members voting yes.

Bills and payroll

The committee then moved and seconded a motion to submit bills and payroll; the clerk read the amount recorded in the transcript as “2,673,98910.” Committee members recorded unanimous yes votes on both the submission and the subsequent motion to pay bills and payroll.

Why it matters

The cultural grant is a small, targeted award that will directly support a school theater production. The bills and payroll votes are routine but required actions that authorize the district’s financial operations.
