Summary

School officials praised two large November community events: a Thanksgiving feast that served about 499 ticketed meals (likely over 500 total) and a PTG-hosted neon night that drew 424 attendees, both described as successful community outreach efforts.

Lacy reported that the district's Thanksgiving feast served 499 ticketed guests and estimated the final total likely exceeded 500, with FFA students and staff helping to manage service. "I’m sure we fed well over 500 that day," she said, and called the event a "really good" day for community connection.

She also noted a PTG-hosted neon night that attracted 424 people, saying the gym was "hot" and that students danced and families enjoyed the evening. Board members and staff praised volunteers and staff who ran the kitchen and supervised the events, and several speakers thanked school employees for their work.

The meeting record shows the district is using such events as outreach in tandem with academic efforts; no formal actions were taken beyond acknowledging staff and volunteers.
