In a recent government meeting, the board discussed two significant topics: the future of a financial case and the proposal to honor a beloved local coach.

The board agreed to postpone any motions regarding a financial case until November, allowing for a more thorough discussion on the matter. This decision aims to address concerns raised about a 24-year financial issue involving $2,000, with board members expressing a desire to explore potential solutions collaboratively.

The second major topic was the proposal to name the back turf field in honor of Coach Tony DeLucas, a respected figure in the Washington Township community. Coach DeLucas, who taught and coached in the district for over 30 years, was recognized for his contributions to local education and athletics. He coached the varsity football team for 16 years and was instrumental in leading teams to success, including a championship in the early 1980s. Following his passing, his family and former players advocated for this honor, which the board unanimously approved.

A ceremony to officially name the field is planned for late October, with details to be communicated to the community. The board expressed gratitude for the opportunity to honor Coach DeLucas, emphasizing his legacy as a dedicated educator and coach.

The meeting concluded with a motion to enter executive session to discuss personnel matters and other confidential topics, underscoring the board's commitment to addressing important issues while maintaining transparency with the public.
