Rationale:  On June 6, 2018 the Permanent Building Commission approved the final payment to Greenwood Industries, Inc. for completion of the Killingly Central School Roof Replacement Project, No. TMP-069-VRWF. The Killingly Board of Education will need to take action for official completion and project close-out.  The meeting minutes will be submitted with the final payment request.

Rationale: 

The National FFA Convention will be October 24-27, 2018 in Indianapolis, IN. We plan to take 7 chapter representatives. The purpose for these students attending the convention, is to take advantage of the leadership trainings and bring those leadership skills back to the KHS community. They will also be able to participate in a career and college expo with representation from all over the nation, listen to a world-class keynote speaker, participate in service projects and many other activities. They will depart on Wednesday, October 24, 2018 and return on Saturday, October 27th. The chapter representatives will travel with Courtney Cardinal as their teacher chaperone.

We also have 6 students applying for the National FFA Band, Talent and Chorus programs. They are not informed until mid-August as to whether they are selected to participate. If any of our students are selected they will travel with Ken Couture on Saturday, October 20 and return on October 28th.

Plane tickets will need to be purchased before September, therefore consideration and approval from the Board of Education and the Superintendent would be appreciated at this time. Students attending the convention will pay a portion of their own expenses and we plan to cover the remaining cost with Beagary Trust funds. Teacher travel is included in our own program budget.

Thank you for your consideration,

Ken Couture
