XI.Q.5. Recommendation for Approval of Memorandum of Understanding and Data Sharing Agreement with R.E.A.C.H. of Louisville, Inc.
Rationale

The Kentucky Incentives for Prevention (KIP) survey anonymously assesses student use of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs, as well as a number of risk and protective factors related to potential substance abuse, including school safety, mental health, bullying, relationship violence, self-harm, and suicide.  The core items on the KIP survey were originally chosen by the federal Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) based on extensive research on rise and resilience factors associated with youth substance abuse.  The survey provides information about student self-reported use of substances, student perceptions about substance use, and perceived accessibility of substances in the community. 

In 2016, 149 of 173 school districts participated in the survey.  The survey is administered every other year to students in grades 6, 8, 10, and 12th grades.  The data obtained from the KIP survey will provide valuable information that may be used to improve programs for students.  JCPS can use this information for grant-writing purposes, prevention activities, and various needs related to program planning,  The 2016 KIP survey report included planning worksheets for schools and districts in the areas of substance abuse problem identification, proximal rise and resilience factors, and community-level contextual factors.

There is no cost to the school district for materials, shipment, scanning, scoring, analysis, interpretation, report writing or report production.  These costs are paid by the Department for Behavioral Health (Department) within the Cabinet for Health and Family Services.

This item supports Strategy 2.1.3 in Vision 2020.

XI.U. Recommendation for Approval to Rename Wilkerson Traditional Elementary School to Wilkerson Elementary School
Rationale

The Principal, School-Based Decision Making Council, Parent Teacher Association, and Family Resource Center Coordinator have all submitted letters in support of changing the name of Wilkerson Traditional Elementary School to Wilkerson Elementary School. A survey was conducted with staff and parents and the results were overwhelmingly in favor of the proposed change.

The school does not follow the District traditional school guidelines. It also does not feed into traditional middle and high schools, so the current name creates confusion for parents and the community.

In accordance with Board Policy 05.11 School Property—Naming Facilities and Alterations and related procedures, it is appropriate that Wilkerson Traditional Elementary School be renamed to Wilkerson Elementary School.
