Assistant Superintendent Jessica Davis on needed changes.
• Gifts and contributions: This policy has stalled based on other priorities. Discussed
various options for moving forward specifically as it relates to grants. How does the
district operate today with grants and does it need any changes? It may be that this will
bring some procedural changes but unclear if there should be a policy.

Policy Subcommittee Meeting
Minutes for March 10, 2025
Superintendent's Office, 2 Park Row, Mansfield, MA 02048
Jocelyn to review GCO; review notes on GCRD; GDB; review old notes; GDO review why
we did not adopt this policy; is it needed?
• Home School: These policies have not been looked at in a long time; should prioritize
before the fall.
Revolving Accounts- Need to revisit with Chair Schoonveld on expectations. Perhaps it
should be brought up at a budget subcommittee first. What is needed may not be policy
but procedures on how the funds are managed and reported.
Other items within 48 hours- None
Meeting adjourned at 5:48 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Diane Nugent, Administrative Assistant
