Review Montly Financials

Jill shared out the following: 

-  Performance and Stability Report as of the end of November. All aspects are right where they should be or better. 

 - Balance report and everything looks good.

Had a discussion around the large grant that we were awarded and how we need to purchase and pay for everything ahead of time before the grants will pay the district back that total amount that was award for the grant.
