Board hears staff recommendation to approve two small grants for student activities
Summary
Staff recommended approving a $4,200 award for students to attend a national conference and a community-foundation grant to buy FFA jackets; staff provided estimated costs and recommended board approval.
Staff presented two grant awards and recommended board approval: a $4,200 grant described as supporting students attending a national conference, and a community foundation grant to purchase FFA jacket sets (staff estimated about 16 jackets at a price break and an additional $300 for scarves). The staff member said approving both grants would allow students to participate without delaying orders for jackets and gear.
Board members asked clarifying questions about quantities and printing of names on jackets; staff answered that the jackets will be ordered without printed names and that sizing options will be available. The board was asked to approve the grants as presented.
