Membership is to vote on reducing the teacher allocations for the remainder of this school year to reduce output and ensure we have funds for other support. - Approved to reduce to $300 for the remainder of the 2023-2024 school year.
Received a $3000 gift from the Trust of Justin Lee Clayton. Justin was not a student at CCA; however, his family and remaining siblings are now in the CCA district. Per Justin's mother, he was in a band and loved music, and this donation was made in his honor.
Discuss renaming one of FAME's two scholarships to the Justin Lee Clayton FAME Scholarship.
Funds have been transferred to the Money Market Acct

Fundraising
School Concessions - school concession profits are held in a School account for use by Teachers internally - those funds are not paid out to FAME or in FAME's control. The total this school year is $4,785.00.
Mattress Sale is underway, with weekly messages being sent via FB, the website, yard signs, and school banners (and homes as students take yard signs home).
Suggesting we focus on getting yard signs up around school entrances, strategic spots and areas, and banners. Quanda will contact facilities about banner placement and coordinate with Kurt on clearance to place banners on fences at MS/HS.
Quanda must sign out Commons on 4/6 (evening load-in) and 4/7 (day of sale. We will require a volunteer to be on site in the morning when the sale begins. - Done and waiting on approval from the District.
Ask Chris C and Tracey W to have students take home signs. Quanda to reach out to Maury about banners placed on school grounds. - Quanda H
Create and share Zoom link for parent's meeting.

The sale is underway - note that it was posted to FB on 2/23 as we had heard that another group in the district was also selling cupcakes. We are confirming that, but we at least wanted to post it. We may not advertise it until 3/4.
Starts 3/4, Ends 3/22, Pick Up 4/7
Pick-up scheduled for 4/7: Quanda will pick up cupcakes in Cedar Falls on Sunday morning and bring them to the high school. We will need help with sorting. Stacie D will lead and coordinate the sale and pick up. Picked this day to correspond with the mattress sale to increase the chance of sales and make the sale look busy.
Should we purchase extras to have for the day of the mattress sale?
