Superintendent reports food-bank outreach; contractor to deliver construction cost estimates
Summary
Superintendent Dr. Brian Holt reported outreach to local food banks and said consultant Gallagher will soon provide cost figures for previously discussed construction projects; RFISD will explore partnerships for distribution and a volunteer food drive.
During the Nov. 3 special meeting, Superintendent Dr. Brian Holt asked Assistant Principal Glenda Brown to update trustees on communications with community organizations about food support for students.
Brown said the Food Bank of New Braunfels will serve only Comal County and that the San Antonio Food Bank had expressed interest in using RFISD facilities for food distribution though not specifically for shutdown-related relief. She also noted that the nonprofit Soldiers' Angels offered to coordinate a food drive that could allow students to earn service hours.
Dr. Holt also told trustees that Gallagher is preparing cost estimates for construction projects previously discussed by the board. He said the district expects the contractor to "soon have numbers to the cost to complete the construction projects previously discussed." The minutes do not include specific dollar figures or timelines for those projects.
