K.1. Commission of Musical Composition and Contract, 2015.
Description:
The request for payment of a musical composition was handed off by previous superintendent, Bhavna Sharma-Lewis in May of 2015. She did not have a clear recommendation. It is an unusual request for a middle school music department. The cost to the Board would be $4500.00. We can not recommend the board spend $4500.00 for a composition which will be completed two years from now. If the board wants to provide some support for this effort, you may want to consider making a partial payment and the remaining balance to be raised by the music department (fundraiser). This is a discussion item only. No action is recommended at this time.
