MEETING OF THE BRAINTREE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
Ms. Kiley then spoke about the failed debt exclusion and the enthusiasm of Liberty parents. Three committees have been formed. Businesses have been approached for donations, and Mr. Frank Messina has pledged--- $50,000--- towards a Liberty Building Fund. Parents are contacting their employers and associations for contributions or matching funds. Pledge sheets have been circulated among parents and Liberty?’s third annual golf tournament will be held on Saturday, June 11. Arrangements have been made with a car detailing business that will rebate $50 back to the school with a purchase of $150. Liberty students are excited about holding a penny drive, and two girls in the primary grades asked that donations be made to the Liberty Building Fund in lieu of their birthday presents.
