Finance Committee Mr. Churchwell stated that transportation costs are up; one bus will be donated to Sacred Heart. Rental income will be down due to William Woods not needing as many classrooms. Utility costs are up due to not having the cost for St. Mary’s school for summer 2011. There was discussion concerning church support and percentages.
Development Committee Mrs. Motazedi presented her report: Annual Appeal update: We are experiencing low participation especially from parents. At this point we are almost $22,000 short of the $100,000 goal. DJ suggested sending a letter to parents, it was discussed and decided a letter would be mailed to parents from the board and priests.
Preschool enrollment brochure is being updated and will be distributed to the churches, as well as a flyer translated into Spanish.
The theme for the auction is “JACS…Back in the Saddle Again”. We have several new volunteers. Sponsorship levels remain the same $1000, $500 and $250. We are adding a row of premium table seating for $50 per person.

Building and Grounds Committee Mrs. Moore stated she spoke with an engineer for the City of Joplin regarding the water runoff and water ponding issue in the alley between St. Mary’s and McAuley. They have no assistance to offer us even though some of the runoff is coming from 10th street. It will be up to us to solve this problem.
