The San Juan Economic Development Corporation approved a $2,500 silver sponsorship for Vanguard Academy’s first annual gala on Aug. 29, 2026. Vanguard counselor Marielisa Linas told the board proceeds will support the school’s scholarship program for graduates.
The San Juan Economic Development Corporation voted to be a silver sponsor for Vanguard Academy’s first annual gala and 25th‑anniversary celebration, approving a $2,500 contribution.
Marielisa Linas, a school counselor at Vanguard Academy, asked the board to partner with the school and said the event’s proceeds “will directly support the Spain Merit Scholarship, a program created to provide financial assistance and educational opportunities to our graduates who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement.” She told the board the gala is scheduled for 08/29/2026 and said scholarship recipients include students who attend Grand Grand Secondary and Mozart Secondary.
A board member made a motion to provide the silver sponsorship, which was seconded; the President called the vote and the motion was recorded in the meeting transcript as passing. The presenter said she would leave printed sponsorship and scholarship materials with the board members before she left.
The board did not record roll‑call tallies in an explicit “aye/no” format in the transcript excerpt; the motion is recorded as passing in open session.
