Chanute board accepts MHIT matching grant, $1,500 foundation donation and a clarinet for middle school

The board approved multiple consent items supporting student services and extracurriculars. The district will participate in the Mental Health Intervention Team (MHIT) matching grant totaling $76,230, with the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services providing 64% of the award. That participation was approved as part of the consent agenda and carried 7–0.

Also on the consent agenda the board accepted a $1,500 grant from the Peter R Marsh Foundation to fund costumes and performance outfits for the Chanute Middle School music department, and accepted the donation of a clarinet from Abby Hughes for the middle school band. The consent agenda was approved on a motion by Bri Leroy, seconded by Heather Guernsey.

These items were handled through the consent agenda and therefore received no separate discussion during the meeting.
