Booster Clubs, Parent-Teacher groups, Extracurricular Parent groups, and other similar entities provide valuable funding and organizational support for the School District’s educational and extracurricular activities. These groups are constantly perceived by the public to be school district-related entities as a result of the organization’s frequent interactions with students and school personnel. However, these organizations are legal entities independent of the Cornwall-Lebanon School District for tax and fiscal purposes.

The primary focus of these organizations is to raise funds to provide financial support for student extracurricular activities and for educational programs. Funds are raised in the name of the School District and are considered public funds by the community. Therefore, the School District maintains a level of fiscal responsibility and oversight of these organizations. The guidelines and recommended financial procedures provided in the CLSD Auxiliary Organizations Guidelines document have been established as a result of the School District’s oversight responsibilities.

Organizations that provide the required documents (see “Documents and References” section, below) to the School District, shall be included as a “covered entity” under the School District’s liability insurance. Bonding of personnel to cover fraud and theft losses is the responsibility of each organization and is highly recommended.

Auxiliary Organizations are encouraged to submit information about events,opportunities and fundraisers to the online Community Bulletin Board on the CLSD website. Use this Community Announcement form for your submission requests.
