President’s Report

•We voted for 2017-2018 Executive Board Members. KRHSBBA new officers are as follows:

•Mindi O’Connor - President

•Melissa Odom - Vice President

•Marti Cameron - Treasurer

•Robin Byus - Recorder

•Patti Kim - Secretary

•Jennifer Schumacher - Parliamentarian

•We discussed proposed changes to the Student Account policy. We will vote on the changes at the May booster meeting. Those changes include:

•$5.00 and under balance will remain the property of the KRHSBBA.

•A whole new section will be added to clarify how the account records are maintained. Section 1 on the first page.

•Section 1 C #3 has been added and states that it is the responsibility of the parent to Opt-Out if they do not want their child’s student account information posted publicly. The idea is to post and make accessible the student account info to all MB students. At May 18th Kick-Off meeting (also next booster meeting), we will vote to make these changes. New executive board members are invited to 5/4 executive board meeting at 4.

•Sherry Garlem - shared her book of Matt Yonkey from the “Yonkeyfest.” If anybody wants to order one, please see Sherry.
