MELISSA THRUSH SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER DISTRICT 5
An article in the NWF Daily News discussed concerns I have with Okaloosa County School Board Member Capital Discretionary Funds (http://www.nwfdailynews.com/news/questions-43470-school-beach.html) For the 2011-2012 School Year the District is proposing to allocate a total of $375,000 for School Board Member Capital Discretionary. This is an increase of $125,000 from what was discussed and proposed originally for the 2011-2012 calendar year. Each School Board member under the new proposal would receive $75,000 of Capital Discretionary Funds. In previous years School Board members have been allocated as much as $150,000 each.
