Volleyball Team Request
$300 for custom uniforms
Mrs. Weist and Daniel recommended we approve this time but in the future, we should purchase reusable uniforms. If things are custom, they should be paid for out-of-pocket by families.
Mr. Zakar said it was $900 for reusable jerseys bc extra jerseys in different sizes need to be purchased.
These types of requests need to be made in advance in the future.
What do the members want? How do we want to use the budget?
Approved
Nurse’s Office
Request for $200 for 2nd ice machine

All baskets can/should be donated to classrooms, unspecified will go to PTA
Budget is 3k
Mrs. Weist asked about insurance
Nisreen has documentation
Ashley and other parents raised concern for cost of tickets
Paid events are optional
Plenty of other activities happening
We don’t have enough volunteers and are trying to streamline the event.
