A purchase request for food service department equipment was considered by the North Judson-San Pierre School Board members last Tuesday.
Superintendent Dr. Annette Zupin told the board members that school officials are looking to purchase a point-of-sale surveillance system as well as digital signage.
She explained that the digital signage would display menu items and information and the surveillance system would be installed so there would be cameras monitoring the cash registers.
Dr. Zupin explained where the money would be coming from and said that officials at the state level were consulted to ensure the proposed method of payment was acceptable.
She informed the board, “We do have food service money, it’s a different fund and that fund is healthy. We also contacted the Department of Ed to make sure that this was an allowable expense and they approved this purchase.”
Members unanimously approved the purchase request.
