The state has informed us that it is our decision-to`.divide
the money by percentage between grant and pass applicants.
There is a total of $4077.00.-available for this funding cycle.
We voted to give 80% to grants and 20% to pass.
We discussed ways to publicize the funding cycle, including
a mailing to all applicants from the last two years. However,
it was agreed that Sally's article in the two town newspapers,
posters around town, contacting the P.T.O. of the schools,;
town hall and the library bulletin board would be sufficient
and most fair.
Janewill contact the school Enrichment Committees with grant
and pass information.
Next meeting is Dec. 11 at 7:00 to meet with anyone in need
of help filling out applications, in the library conference
room..Our regular business meeting follows at 7%30.
