6680 - RECOGNITION
The purpose of this policy is to permit the Board of Education to honor its staff, former Board members, and other nonemployee persons with plaques, pins, token retirement gifts and awards, monetary stipends and other amenities.
The Board wishes to also honor staff, students, citizens, and advisory groups for their contributions with appropriate recognitions and authorizes administrators to purchase meals, refreshments, and/or other amenities to further the interests of the District and to be reimbursed for such purchases if they are initially made with the administrators’ personal funds.
Allocation of the aforementioned awards will be according to guidelines developed by the Superintendent.
The Board hereby affirms that the expenses incurred as listed above do serve a valid and proper
public purpose. However, under no circumstances will public funds be expended for the purchase of alcoholic beverages. The Board believes that the "public purpose" served is the promotion of education, rapport with the business community, community relations, and the encouragement of nonemployees to serve as volunteers, as well as furthering other legitimate interests.Revised 8/16/04
