        Discussion: 
SEM currently has 2 REAP grants.  The first grant for $20,215.00 must be obligated by September 30, 2022. Grant and I have decided that it would be best to use this money for replacing and adding additional security cameras.  
                            Cost of all the cameras including installation is $24,140.20. REAP Grant 1 would cover all of the cost except $3,925.20. The remaining balance will be paid from REAP Grant 2. REAP Grant 2 is for $20,024.00. The balance of REAP Grant 2 after paying $3,925.20 would be $16,098.80 Last month I mentioned I would like to buy Interactive Flat Screens for the classroom. Due to delay in merchandise availability, I am requesting that we wait to use the remaining portion of REAP Grant 2.

                            I need to know which board members can attend, and I need to choose the items and meals for which we would like to register. Please note: Neither of the host hotels offer a free breakfast. You can register for Thursday and/or Friday breakfast through the conference registration process. 
 Conference registration will open Tuesday, September 13, 2022. Once I complete the Education Conference registration I will receive an email with your NASB Registration code and a Conference Hotel Room Request link. The room request process will open on Tuesday, September 27, 2022. If we would like to request rooms at the Hilton hotel, I must register for Conference and complete the room request no later than October 23. If we would like to request a room at the Marriott hotel, I must register for Conference and complete the room request no later than November 4.  |
