Summary

The board approved a resolution accepting $1,200 from the Houston Athletic Booster Club for volleyball and $700 (Lisa Skifton and an anonymous donor) for a popcorn machine; the resolution passed by roll call with unanimous ayes.

The board adopted a resolution accepting several community donations for district programs and equipment. Staff read the resolution aloud; board records show the Houston Athletic Booster Club donated $1,200 designated for volleyball and an additional $700 was donated (Lisa Skifton and an anonymous donor) to purchase a popcorn machine.

The chair called roll and board members registered unanimous 'ayes' on the measure. Board members expressed appreciation for the donations and made light comments about the usefulness of a replacement popcorn machine for concessions.

Staff will record the donations and ensure the designated amounts are used for the stated purposes.
