Community Representative

Discussion held on PSA positions as districts as well as categorical budgets have cut PSA. School has deleted PSW position due to lack of budget allocations in Title I. ELL can not purchase PSA or other positions. ELL can purchase instructional materials and supplies. Possible SB1133 can be use for counselor position to reduce counseling load as well as reviewing student attendance. A need exist for school to review other sources such as Teen Clinic for psycho/socio referrals as well as the Beyond the Bell counselor. Recommendation was made for ELL to increase curricular trips in order for Title I to pick up second PSA. Mr. Nunnally will seek clarification on Resource teacher definition for additional (Spivey) position.
Ms. Perez, second by Ms. Covington motion pending clarification and budget recommendations SSC will approve budget including cut of PSW position as amended by Dr. Nishimura, body approved budget as motion.
