In 2013, a basic, builder-quality shower enclosure and water and drain pipes were added to a bathroom adjacent to the superintendent’s office. The bathroom itself was there prior to 2008, when Dr. Webb was named superintendent. In response to community concerns and media coverage about the shower installation, a generous local patron reimbursed the district $4,000 to cover the full cost of the project. In addition, Dr. Webb donated another $4,000 to the Foundation for Vancouver Public Schools, which distributed the money to programs that benefit students. So, the shower did not cost the district any money.
