May 2013 Board Meeting
Prior to the Board Meeting, we saw a demonstration of the new high-tech, plasma welder purchased for the welding program at Parker High School. This equipment was made possible by a $5,000 Unique Opportunities Grant. We also toured the new greenhouse.

$50,000 Growth and Sustainability Grant Awarded May 1, 2013
$50,000 was awarded to Mohave High School to begin equipping the new culinary building with required minimum components (reach-in freezer, ice machine, water treatment system, reach-in refrigerator, four hand sinks, three compartment sink and preparation sink), a bake line with two hoods, a dishwashing station with proper exhaust hood and an Instructor cook line with required hood components. $41,290 was also awarded to Parker High School to purchase allied health lab equipment recommended by the Arizona Department of Education. The pilot Allied Health class drew over 44 applicants. Only 22 were selected. Currently, 21 students have been selected for the Fall 2013 class. All equipment will be ordered this school year to ensure it will be tagged, set up and in use prior to the first day of school in August 2013.
