The responsibilities for the Title I / RTI coordinator have increased over the past several years including additional expectations for the summer months.  Therefore, I am asking that the contract be extended five additional days.  These funds will come out of the district Title One allocation and will have no impact on the general funds.  We are currently paying a stipend for clerical work related to Title I and this will eliminate the need for that expense. 

• Title I RTI Coordinator Contract AGENDA COVER

Due to the reduction in Title I funds, SCMS was cut ½ of an I.A. position for the 2016-17 school year.  SCMS is requesting the board’s consideration of funding the other ½ of this position to bring this to full time.  The position would provide Math/Reading intervention from the Title I allocation and Social Studies intervention with the Board funded allocation.  This scenario will assist SCMS to implement practices to improve our students’ academic growth in Math/Reading and Social Studies.  It will also produce a savings in their Title I budget due to the reduction in federal health insurance reimbursement on a ½ federal/1/2 general funded position.  The savings will be used to provide certified tutors for additional interventions.

• SCMS IA POSITION REQUEST

0.5 ARC Chairperson is requested for all SCHS special education annual IEP reviews along with any district ARC meeting with circumstances beyond normal.  This will free up the Principal, Assistant Principals, and College Coach at SCHS to enhance what is already taking place there.  The above named individuals are currently splitting over 200+ ARC meetings a year now, not to mention any requested meeting.

Jason Burns (SCHS Coach) would like BoE approval to purchase a “digital scorer’s table”.  The item would be purchased using SCHS Boys’ Basketball funds from the activity account.  The “digital scorer’s table” would be utilized by the Boys’ Basketball Team, Girls’ Basketball Team, and Girls’ Volleyball team.  He has requested three separate quotes.  He seeks approval to purchase the item from Booster Digital Displays.  This company provided the least expensive quote for this given product. 

This AED device is a mobile defibrillator in case of a heart attack or issues where the heart quits.   This will allow the Athletic Trainer to take to the field or on away games so we will have a device closer than the one that is in the building.  This will enable quicker access to the device on the field or in the stands where it may be needed.   Quote attached is for $1,373.00.
