Board notes voter-registration assurance, thanks VFW, and approves student travel notifications
Summary
The board recorded assurance it provided voter-registration materials to high school students, acknowledged a $1,000 donation from VFW Post 3484 for a sixth-grade trip, and discussed field trips and DECA advisors traveling to nationals in Atlanta.
During the meeting the board covered routine education and curriculum items, including documentation that the district provided voter-registration materials to eligible high school students. A board member summarized the item, saying the materials included a summary of voter-registration eligibility and descriptions of the role of a citizen.
The board also acknowledged a $1,000 donation from VFW Post 3484 to support the sixth-grade trip. "They donate $1,000 to our 6th grade trip annually and we appreciate it a lot," a board member said.
On student travel, the board discussed field trips and service-learning activities between the middle/high school and elementary schools. A board member said five DECA students will travel to nationals in Atlanta and that DECA advisors, counselors and the director of curriculum and instruction (also the district’s 504 coordinator) will be present to support students and attend professional development.
The board did not elaborate budget lines or vendor names for the trips during the public portion; the meeting record shows these items as part of education and curriculum agenda E2526.56 through E2526.6 and were presented for board consideration.
