In last Thursday’s Joel E Barber school board meeting, Melinda Fries with the Lebanon Area Foundation was recognized for helping set up a “pass-thru fund”. School Superintendent Rachel  Jennings said this was the birth of what they call the “Buckskin Project Fund”

Jennings said a pass-thru fund gets donation money where it needs to go while allowing donors to remain anonymous

After the ball fields are complete, the board plans to move on to parking lot repairs, installing LED lights in the building and bathroom remodels.
