Committee asks staff to identify donor for Project Lead The Way club; follow-up promised
Summary
During new business the committee heard that a donor has been identified for a Project Lead The Way club but staff said donor identity is unknown and they will follow up; no budget transfer details were provided in the transcript.
Moving into new business and budget reports, the Holyoke School Committee heard a report about an external donor for a student club.
A staff member told the committee, "I don't know who the donor is so I'm gonna have to follow up on that," indicating the district had received an offer of support but staff needed to identify and document the donor before any formal acceptance or budget transfer could be completed. Committee members and staff also discussed the student club's interest in proceeding with Project Lead The Way programming pending confirmation of donor support.
The transcript does not record specific dollar amounts, the donor's identity, or any completed budget transfer. Staff said they would follow up and provide more information to the committee at a later meeting.
The committee then raised other agenda items, including whether findings from a recent Springfield internal audit could have implications for Holyoke.
