---$62K to "re-do" the brand new bleachers at Summit Field (but they don't want you to know that (A) insufficient were purchased, and (B) with the ones purchased, the first 5-8 rows have their view blocked by the dugouts.
---a decision to "spend" the rest of the $1.1M in EdJobs Fund money and "put it in fund balance"...yeah....rrrright!
---$90K to extend the contract for Youth Advocates.
---Last but not least is a change to policy regarding "Complaints" or "Concerns" regarding the district. Know which one you have/had? Does the district know? Is there a difference? How do you "get heard"?
