Board approves band and choir trip to Florida for April 2027; district funds not required
Summary
The Lake Park Audubon School Board approved a band/choir trip to Florida (April 10–17, 2027) after administrators said the trip is funded through student fundraising and bids for motorcoach were solicited; the motion passed by roll call.
The board approved a proposed band and choir trip to Florida scheduled for April 10–17, 2027, after staff described the plan and funding. Superintendent (speaker 2) told the board Mr. Ackland could not attend and noted the trip is the district's periodic four-year program; about 90 band and choir students could participate and the district is seeking at least three bids for motorcoach service. "Oh, it's all fundraised," the superintendent said when a board member asked whether the district would pay for the trip, and he reiterated that no general fund dollars would be used for the trip.
Chair (speaker 5) called for a motion and the board voted by roll call. Board members recorded 'aye' for Cole, Aaron, Jade, Megan, Sarah, Warren and Susan; the motion passed and the trip was approved. Administrators said chaperones and final details will be determined and that the board can formally approve additional logistics if needed at a later meeting.
