Trivedi, V. Fisher, Cathy Hendrickson, B. Pullarkat, A. Pullarkat, N. Lesky, K. Hughes, B. Brown, P. Willis, E. Dominici, Y. Sidhu, S. Martin, and A. Miller.

Cheryl Salanty welcomed everyone and thanked them for attending.

Maribeth Wonson made a motion to approve the minutes dated November 8, 2011. Becky Goodman seconded the motion, and it passed unanimously.

Maribeth Wonson gave the Treasurer’s Report. The opening balance was $11,201. Deposits were $1,055. Checks paid and cleared were $900. The ending balance was $11,357. Donation receipts have been distributed. See Maribeth if you did not receive one. Also please complete reimbursement request forms in a timely manner.

Cheryl Salanty led a discussion on the Spring Budget Proposal. The following items were discussed:

  • $200 is the estimated cost of the Medical Professionals Breakfast/Career Day. This is a net amount after including a $400 credit applied from CMA funds received last year from Cook’s. Students will pay for their own meals. The Booster Club will cover the cost of Physician, faculty and CISD administration meals. There is no facility fee for the event.
  • Funds for the Senior Boards for the Awards Banquet may come from the District account. Seniors should provide Cheryl with a cost estimate for this.
  • Senior cords for graduation may come from the District account as well. Mrs. Martin showed an example of the cords.
  • Audrey Miller will provide Cheryl with detail estimates on Banquet expenses.
  • Scholarship applications will be distributed after the Physician’s Breakfast. A draft application was discussed. The application deadline was set as April 20, 2012. Last year there were 18 seniors and 6 scholarships were granted. This year there are 38 seniors. The number of scholarships will be determined after the Spring Budget is finalized.

Shilpa Patel and Mrs. Martin gave an update on internships. All 38 seniors have been placed and have either started or are soon starting their internships.

Audrey Miller reported that the Awards Banquet is May 5, 2012. A committee will soon start working on obtaining auction items. There is a list of parent volunteers. Invitations will go out in March for current students. The schedule will be tight for inviting the incoming freshmen.

The Physicians' Breakfast and Career Day is scheduled for February 9th at Trophy Club Country Club. Vicky Fisher reported that 30 medical professionals will be attending. A flyer and permission slip will be distributed soon. Yash Sidhu stated that press releases need to be done both before and after the event.

Cathy Hendrickson discussed the next Mentor/Mentee meeting on February 22 in the high school cafeteria. It will be a general question and answer session.

Nancy Lesky reported that she has attended various student meetings. The juniors and seniors were interested in going to GDX for team building. Due to the distance from Southlake, the Booster Club decided that events closer to home would be preferred.

Becky Goodman reported that there have been no updates to the web site. The next newsletter will be distributed after the Medical Professionals’ Breakfast.

Armaan Kang reported that the competition between grade levels for the Drinking Water for India program will be starting back up.

The meeting was adjourned at 8:01 p.m.
