La Grande SD 1 board signals no alcohol on school grounds in Wildcat Center rental talks
Summary
Board members discussed multiple rental requests for the Wildcat Center, raised concerns about floor damage and serving alcohol at non-school events, and indicated they do not want alcohol allowed on school property; policy revisions would be required to permit alcohol.
Superintendent George Mendoza told the board Sept. 24 that several entities have requested renting the Wildcat Center. Board members raised two concerns: potential floor damage from high-heeled shoes and whether alcohol should be permitted at non-school events on district property.
After discussing the issue, the board expressed that it does not want alcohol on school grounds. The minutes note the district would need to revise Board Policies if it opted to allow alcohol at non-school events, indicating that any future change would require a formal policy update and further board action.
