Feedback Requested for Corporate Sponsorship Policy

During the April 19, 2016 Board Meeting, the Board of Trustees approved and endorsed corporate sponsorships. A condition of this approval was that only the Superintendent, in consultation with the Board and school administration, may enter into a sponsorship agreement.  

A new draft Administrative Procedure has been developed to support this Board Motion. This new procedure provides direction on Corporate Sponsorship and ensures adequate controls are in place for all sponsorship opportunities. All corporate sponsorship opportunities will be evaluated with regards to risks, benefits and whether or not the sponsorship aligns with the mission and priorities of the school and WRSD.
