 +**POLICY: KCD\\
 +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.
