Board accepts $3,600 in gifts

Our community has come together to inspire excellence in our schools, our community, and in ourselves. Working together, we are making tremendous progress. We are incredibly fortunate to have community partners like our Parent Teacher Associations (PTAs) and local businesses and families. At their December 11 meeting, the Board accepted more than $3,600 in gifts to several schools. So far this year, the Board has accepted more than $196,000 in gifts from various community partners.

As we look to the future, we have many challenges ahead of us. Educational costs are rising, especially with rising unfunded mandates from Springfield. Infrastructure needs are growing as our buildings age, even as we invest more of our budget into capital facilities projects. Support from community partners is essential and greatly appreciated.
