A Special Meeting of the Board of Education of the Altus Public School District was held Tuesday, June 26, at 11:30 a.m.
Board member Debora Phillips was absent.
The board members discussed and then approved the use of the Altus Junior High School Cafeteria by a local group, Bountiful Baskets Food Co-Op. The board approved this no-fee rental for three to four hours each Saturday through Dec. District Superintendent Bob Drury said, there will not be any fees for personnel since group members will clean up after the distribution of the baskets of fruits and vegetables.

Organic baskets require a contribution of $25.
