Board discusses allowing free student admission to athletic events; decision deferred
Summary
Trustees discussed a proposal to allow students free admission to athletic events and to move to a cashless payments system; staff said other districts require principals or the superintendent to provide supervision and that a final decision is expected in April or May for the following school year.
Trustees discussed a possible policy change to allow students to attend school athletic events free of charge and to transition to a cashless admission system. Staff responses referenced supervision logistics; Kenn Kott told trustees that other schools sometimes require principals or even the superintendent to attend events when students are admitted free of charge.
Board members were told a decision on the free-ticket policy will be timed in April or May so it can be implemented for the following school year. The discussion focused on operational details (supervision and staffing) rather than a vote; no formal motion on the policy change was recorded in the meeting notes.
