The 2015-16 Emergency Procedures and Contacts manual (commonly known as the "Red Book") will be shared with you on Google Drive in an effort to keep this critical information readily available.  You should have already received hard copies of the manual through district mail. We believe that sharing the manual electronically, in a safe manner, makes it even more accessible if needed.
At this time, only JSD administrators have been included.  In the event you would like to share the manual with your administrative assistant and/or head custodian, please email a request to share to Peggy Margetts at peggy.margetts@jordandistrict.org.  Also, if your current contact information changes, please send Peggy updates immediately so she can keep the contact information as current as possible.  Feel free to contact Peggy at 801-567-8753 with any questions.

SUBJECT:
Donation Acknowledgments


 

As a reminder, the District has a procedure for acknowledging receipt of funds from individuals or groups who donate money to benefit various school programs (see pages 44-47 of the Financial Accounting Manual).  When a school receives a monetary donation of $250 or more, please notify me so that a letter can be prepared and sent to the individual or group to acknowledge receipt of the funds.  A copy of the acknowledgement letter will be sent to you for your files.

To help with the preparation of the letter, please provide me with the following:

  1. A copy of the check.
  2. A copy of the school receipt.
  3. If the letter should be addressed to someone other than the name(s) on the check, please provide that information.
  4. Purpose of the donation (i.e., the name of the school club or group benefiting from the donation).
  5. State whether or not goods or services were provided to the donor as a result of the donation (i.e., did the donor benefit?).

Thank you for your assistance.
