Summary:
Staff requests approval to submit a grant to Tesoro for a STEAM truck that will carry our STEAM Day equipment and will have the MDUSD STEAM logo on the side as advertisement. We have started this year hosting school-wide STEAM day events and as the program is growing, there is a need for a vehicle big enough to haul the tubs and equipment for running a school-wide STEAM event. This grant funding will support: the vehicle ($34,900), materials needed for the truck, and materials for the STEAM events. If funded, the grant will provide $40,000.  
Funding:
Funding is provided by Tesoro.  
Fiscal Impact:
The grant is for $40,000 for a new truck that will be the MDUSD STEAM truck.

Approve the submission of the Tesoro grant and acceptance if awarded.
