The State Legislature passed a law during its
last session that significantly impacts the operation of all school support
groups. This includes foundations, booster clubs, parent organizations, and
other similar organizations that raise funds to support local schools or the
system as a whole. The new law has several new requirements included that are
intended to ensure the safe-keeping of funds raised by such organizations.
All
local Boards of Education are required to adopt a policy explaining how the
school system will operate in partnership with such organizations.
