The MSAD 51 School Board convened on December 5, 2024, to discuss various community engagement initiatives and administrative matters. The meeting began with a presentation from a board member who highlighted upcoming events aimed at fostering community spirit and support for local schools.

Key activities mentioned included a repeat of a successful event during February or April break, a Main Celtics night, and a spring Greeley gear sale. The board also expressed enthusiasm for hosting additional events such as trivia night, bingo night, and a sledding day, contingent on weather conditions. A notable initiative discussed was the "Fill a Bus, Fill a Belly" event in collaboration with the local food pantry, alongside staff appreciation events planned for the end of the school year.

The board member emphasized the importance of community involvement and welcomed suggestions from attendees, noting the active participation of 23 board members who are eager to contribute ideas, despite the challenge of managing numerous proposals.

Additionally, the board introduced a new fleece blanket sale, featuring two designs priced at $30 each, aimed at providing warmth during football games. The blankets are available for order online and will be sold at the school over the next two Fridays, with the intention of making them available for Christmas.

Following the community updates, the board moved on to administrative matters, specifically the approval of minutes from the previous meeting held on November 21, 2024. A motion to approve the minutes was made and seconded, with no further questions or comments, leading to a unanimous vote in favor.

The meeting concluded with a sense of community engagement and a commitment to enhancing the educational experience within the MSAD 51 district.
