HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Hutchinson USD 308 School Board has given the go-ahead for students to start their own retail store inside Hutchinson High School.
The board gave the nod to the Hutchinson High School’s business students who want to sell booster club items plus apparel and other merchandise. Students from the business department will run it. The store will be located in A hall.
The store will be able to sell both to students and the public with a separate walk-up entrance.
The group voted to name the store Sammy's Shack.
Also Monday, the board approved replacing a rooftop HVAC unit at the high school and approved the joint support work with the Boys and Girls Club over the summer.
Finally, the board went into executive session to discuss personnel matters related to the ongoing negotiations between USD 308 and the local teachers union. The two sides will meet again on Aug. 11.
