Summary

The Board unanimously approved a stipend to support the girls wrestling program, citing significant program growth.

The Belding Area School District Board approved a stipend to support the girls wrestling program at its Jan. 20 meeting following a motion from a board member. "Motion by Ms. Lien, supported by Mr. Baker, to approve the request for a stipend to be paid to the wrestling program due to the significant growth of the girls' wrestling program." The motion was approved by unanimous voice vote.

Board minutes do not list a dollar amount for the stipend or identify which budget line will fund it. The minutes record the policy decision to provide a stipend in response to program growth but do not include further implementation details; the Finance Office (represented by Director Slater Martin) would operationalize any pay adjustments under existing procedures.

The action recognizes increasing participation in girls' wrestling and assigns administrators to implement stipend payment under existing budget and personnel processes.
