+ | Public Gifts and Donations\\ | ||
+ | School Board Approved: August 19, 2019**\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Gifts from organizations, community groups and/or outside individuals, which will benefit the | ||
+ | District, shall be encouraged. A gift shall be defined as money, real or personal property, and personal | ||
+ | services provided without consideration.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Individuals or groups contemplating presenting a gift to a school or the District shall be encouraged to | ||
+ | discuss in advance with the Building Principal or the Superintendent what gifts are appropriate and | ||
+ | needed.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Board reserves the right to refuse any gift that does not contribute to the achievement of the | ||
+ | District's goals, or in which the ownership of the gift would tend to deplete the resources of the | ||
+ | District. In determining whether a gift will be accepted, consideration shall be given to District | ||
+ | Policies, School District goals and objectives (with particular emphasis on the goal of providing equal | ||
+ | educational opportunities to all students) and adherence to basic principles outlined in the regulation | ||
+ | that accompanies this policy.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Pursuant to RSA 198:20-b, III, gifts in the amount of $5000 or more shall require the Board to hold a | ||
+ | public hearing regarding any action to be taken with the gift. For gifts of less than $5000, the Board | ||
+ | will post notice of the gift in the agenda of the next regularly scheduled Board meeting and will | ||
+ | include notice in the minutes of the meeting in which the gift is discussed. The acceptance of all gifts | ||
+ | will be made in public session.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Any gift accepted shall become the property of the district, may not be returned without the approval | ||
+ | of the Board, and is subject to the same controls and regulations as are other properties of the | ||
+ | District. The Board shall be responsible for the maintenance of any gift it accepts.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Board will make every effort to honor the intent of the donor in its use of the gift, but reserves the | ||
+ | right to utilize any gift it accepts in the best interest of the educational program of the District. In no | ||
+ | case shall acceptance of a gift be considered to be an endorsement by the Board of a commercial | ||
+ | product, business enterprise or institution of learning.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | It is the responsibility of the Superintendent or designee to process the appropriate forms to update the | ||
+ | District's inventory and to notify the donor of acceptance or rejection of a gift.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Pursuant to Article 9 of the JRCSD Warrant Article of 2014 which was authorized by voters. | ||
