Specifically, the Bullitt County School-Based Law Enforcement Agency requests authorization to operate on radio frequencies assigned to the BCSO by the FCC to establish immediate mutual aid interoperable communications.

The operational and technical guidelines are detailed in the attached Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Key responsibilities include:

This memo formally requests the Board of Education's approval for the creation of a new district-level position, the Behavioral Health Administrator (BHA). This position is fully funded for its initial year through the $81,000 Strengthening Health Integration iN Education for Kentucky Students (SHINE KY) grant, which was officially awarded to Bullitt County Public Schools on May 1, 2026.

The core purpose of the BHA is to establish a financially sustainable and equitable system for student mental health services. By managing and overseeing the Kentucky Expanded Access billing process, the BHA will transition the district's capability from no reimbursement to full capacity. The resulting revenue stream is projected to be sufficient to cover the position's salary and benefits for the following year, allowing it to be integrated into the district's operating budget as a self-funded role while expanding our capacity for direct student care.

The Behavioral Health Administrator (BHA) reports to the Director of Safe and Drug Free Schools. This 10-month, 187-day position for the 2026-2027 school year requiresa preferred Master's Degree (Master Level Social Worker base). Intended hiring date is July 2026. The total grant funding is $81,000, with $74,134.05 allocated for personnel costs during the grant period.

• Behavioral Health Administrator Job description and Creation of Position (1).pdf

Approve request for SHINE Ky Grant Job Creation and Job Description- Behavioral Health Administrator as recommended.

This rebranding is a crucial step in showing collaboration and alignment regarding the Community-Based Accountability (CBA) Pillars, Character Strong implementation, and the district's shift toward a more comprehensive MTSS (Multi-Tiered Systems of Support) framework. The title "PBIS Coach" no longer captures the full scope of the role.

The new title should reflect a move away from just "behavioral" management toward a whole-child success, implementation fidelity, and systemic support. The district now views academic, behavioral, social-emotional, and basic needs as all interconnected. A PBIS title suggests a siloed focus solely on behavior. The new roadmap focuses heavily on the science of behavior change and the implementation formula for success (Systems, Practices, Culture equals Outcomes). With the implementation of districtwide social-emotional learning for students, the priotirization of character competencies like empathy, respect for self/others, and personal development will be measured and quantified with the CBA work for BCPS.

The job description of the Behavior Systems Specialist is attached and is requested for approval, as well as the job title. Dinsmore legal counsel has reviewed this request.
