On Monday, Aug. 26, a small crowd of educators and community servants gathered at the Brentwood City Commission Meeting for a special check presentation ceremony.
“This is one of the favorite meetings of the commission, where we distribute funds to the Williamson County schools and various community service providers,” Brentwood Mayor Mark Gorman said.
Since 1986, Brentwood taxpayers have contributed $7 million to the schools that serve Brentwood, and $2.7 million to local community service providers. The Commission allocates money each year through its annual budget to support these schools and organizations.
“We are very blessed to have a City Commission that values education the way you do,” Brentwood High School Principal Kevin Keidel said.
On Monday, Commissioners awarded educational funds as follows:
$62,400 to Brentwood High School.
$62,400 to Ravenwood High School.
$15,600 to Brentwood Middle School.
