SHAC reviews 2025–26 tobacco survey participation, notes $250 allocations and $500 high‑school implication
Summary
Members were told both Center High School and Center Middle School previously received $250 each; this year only the high school is being asked to participate, a $500 total that drew comment about the impact on the student activity fund.
Members reviewed logistical details for the 2025–26 Texas Youth Tobacco Survey and the district distribution of incentive funds. The minutes record that both Center High School and Center Middle School historically received $250 each; SHAC members were told this year only the high school is being asked to participate, which would amount to $500 for the student activity fund if the high school accepts participation. Brandy Bennefield, Center ISD chief academic officer, noted that Heath Hagler might favor participation because $500 is a meaningful sum for student activities.
Joyce Permenter said she will contact the high school to determine interest and will coordinate with Benita Collard to send permission slips home via ParentSquare. The item remains on the SHAC agenda for follow-up once the high school responds; no formal vote on participation or funding occurred at the Oct. 1 meeting.
