Board approves FFA, state and outdoor school overnight trips
Summary
The Stanfield SD 61 board approved three overnight student trips: FFA Career Development Events, a state‑level trip, and outdoor school May 5–8, 2025. Staff noted counselor coverage and asked for male counselor volunteers for outdoor school.
The board approved three overnight student trips on the action agenda: an FFA Career Development Events trip, a state‑level overnight trip, and an outdoor school trip scheduled for May 5–8, 2025.
The FFA trip motion was made and seconded and passed on a voice vote. A separate state trip was likewise approved after staff noted an attachment with details. For outdoor school, Laura (staff) described logistics and staffing: "At this point, we have 3 counselors that are coming with us. We do not have any male counselors... So mister Lemons, the sole guy right now. So if there are any high school boys that you know wanna be a counselor, how do I apply?" She said roughly six students will not attend because of placement or eligibility. The board moved, seconded and approved the outdoor school overnight trip by voice vote.
