Board approves overnight FFA trip after adviser outlines costs and student successes
Summary
The board approved an overnight stay for FFA members attending state convention after an adviser summarized competition results and explained estimated chapter costs of $6,375 and funding sources; the FFA will cover nearly $1,000 and adult registration comes from the adviser budget.
Mrs. Draper presented a detailed recap of recent FFA activity, student placements and the upcoming state convention, and asked for permission to keep students overnight on May 14–15 for the event. She told the board: "So the costs are $6,375 altogether, and that scares me to have that much money on an invoice without talking to you guys."
After discussion about staffing and funding, a board member moved to approve the overnight stay and the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. The board recorded that the FFA chapter will contribute nearly $1,000 toward costs and that adult registration will be paid from the adviser’s ag budget.
