6.B. Create/Modify Positions
6.B.a. Increase Contract Days
Rationale

Kellye Wedding is currently serving in the part-time 60 day ARC Chairperson role to assist Preschool and First Steps. However, this year we have missed several days of school and are challenged with rescheduling numerous ARC meetings.

To best meet the needs of parents, students, and First Step providers I am recommending we increase Kellye Wedding from 60 to 65 days to assist with ARC meetings.

The funding for this increase in time will be obtained from IDEA Basic Part B.

6.B.b. Creation of a part time custodian position
Rationale

Western Hills High School would like to create a part-time custodian position.  The SBDM has approved taking .5 hours per day from a current position and adding that time to hours not currenlty being used under our classified allocation.  This would allow us the ability to create a position that would be 2 hours per day at 200 days per calendar year.  

This position would be responsible for all athletic facilities and grounds.  With the building of a new field house, we feel there is a need for this position. 

Recommended Motion

approve a part-time custodian position.
