Board approves multiple student trips including FFA national convention and band Mackinaw trip
Summary
The board unanimously approved several student trips for 2026 and 2026–2027, including FFA Region IV, an FFA trip to Canada, the middle school band trip to Mackinaw, FFA Fall Leadership, and the FFA National Convention; an art students' Walt Disney World trip was also approved.
Trustee Amy Lark moved and Trustee Matt Bennett (or Bryan Droscha where recorded) supported approval of multiple student field trips. Approved trips include: Mason High School FFA to the Region IV Officer Camp in Metamora, MI (April 27-28, 2026); an FFA trip to Canada (June 8-12, 2026); Mason Middle School Band to Mackinaw (May 8-9, 2026); FFA Fall Leadership Conference in Lansing (Oct. 8-9, 2026); FFA National Convention in Indianapolis (Oct. 29-Nov. 1, 2026); and a Mason High School art students trip to Walt Disney World (Oct. 7-11, 2026). Each motion carried 7-0 per the minutes.
The minutes record one motion with a missing second recorded as "** supported" for the art students trip; despite that notation, the board recorded the motion as carried unanimously. The minutes do not list trip participant counts, chaperone ratios or costs to students.
