In accordance with School Committee policy, gifts in excess of $50 must be made to the Hopkinton Public Schools, rather than to an individual teacher or staff member. If a receipt is necessary for tax purposes, the donor should submit a letter stating the item donated, and fair market value, to the principal of the building to which the donation is made. The building principal will forward the letter to the School Committee, which will accept the donation on behalf of the schools, and return the accepted letter to the donor for their records. |
