Region 10 policy committee advances revisions to 'Gifts, Grants, Memorials and Bequests' policy
Summary
At its April 27 meeting, the Region 10 Board of Education Policy Committee reviewed draft revisions to Regulation R3280 on gifts, grants, memorials and bequests presented by Superintendent Fran Thompson and agreed on edits to bring to the full Board for consideration.
Superintendent Fran Thompson presented draft revisions to Regulation R3280, titled “Gifts, Grants, Memorials, and Bequests,” at the Region 10 Board of Education Policy Committee meeting on April 27, 2026. The committee discussed how to clarify the district’s approach to memorials and other donor activity and agreed on modifications to the draft to present to the full Board for review.
Thompson provided a template of the sample revisions outlining specifics about memorials and related practices. Committee members discussed language to make the policy clearer about who may authorize memorials, how donated funds are recorded, and how memorial requests would be handled administratively. The discussion was described in the meeting record as “productive” and resulted in edits to the current draft.
No formal vote on substantive policy language was taken by the Policy Committee; members concluded the item by agreeing the revised draft should be forwarded to the full Board of Education for further discussion and potential approval. The committee recorded its procedural business for the meeting, including a unanimous approval of prior committee minutes and an adjournment at 7:05 p.m.
Next steps: the Policy Committee will deliver the edited R3280 draft to the full Regional School District 10 Board of Education for consideration at a future meeting.
