| How does the LEA plan to use funds to implement prevention and mitigation strategies in order to continuously and safely operate schools for in-person learning? |
*
The ultimate goal is for all of our schools to remain open, and proactive measures are in place to keep personnel and students safely together in the classroom. Funds awarded through ESSER will be used to most importantly address learning loss, as state and federal regulations require. However, funds will also be used to employ key personnel members who serve on the preventive side of in person learning, such as nurses, academic interventionists, custodians, and a mental health services coordinator. All of the aforementioned coincide with prevention and mitigation strategies to safely operate our schools for in-person learning.
|
|
|
|
| How will the LEA ensure that the evidence-based interventions will address the academic impact of lost instructional time and ensure that those interventions respond to the academic, social, emotional, and mental health needs of all students including underrepresented student subgroups (each major racial and ethnic group, children from low-income families, children with disabilities, English Learners, gender, migrant students, students experiencing homelessness, and children and youth in foster care) and those who are particularly impacted disproportionately by the COVID-19 pandemic? |
*
Even prior to the pandemic, according to explicit data analysis, multiple years are needed in order to close the achievement gaps that currently exist within our system. These factors have created a greater sense of urgency to act immediately to close these gaps. In keeping the success of all of our students at the forefront, we are implementing a three-year academic recovery plan that includes a required school-based intervention block that is both prescriptive and explicit.
|
|
|
|
| How will the LEA comply with the requirements of section 427 of GEPA (20 U.S.C. 1228a)? The description must include information on the steps the LEA proposes to take to permit students, teachers, and other program beneficiaries to overcome barriers (including barriers based on gender, race, color, national origin, disability, and age) that impede equal access to, or participation in, the ESSER III program. |
*
In order to ensure ALL of our students are prepared for academic, social, and emotional success, we have the developed the following action steps: (1) ensure equitable access to strategic teaching that is rigorous and explicit, (2) frequently evaluate progress monitoring benchmarks to ensure that all students' academic needs are being met, and (3) provide targeted, personalized professional development for teachers.
|
|
|
|
| How will the LEA actively monitor their allocations, conduct interim audits to ensure an appropriate application of funds, collect and manage data elements required to be reported, and report this information to the community? |
*
Our CSFO actively monitors all funding on a daily basis through reporting and fund source tracking. Each month, the CSFO pulls summary expenditures, general ledger reports, and trial balance reports to request funding necessary to cover allowable federal expenses. Prior to requesting funding, the Federal Program Director approves orders based on budgeted plans, and the CSFO confirms available funding. LEA is required to upload all financial reports monthly to the state department portal and post on our local school website monthly for public view. LEA reports financials to Board members at a public Board meeting once a month including funding from all sources, local, state, and federal, and holds public hearings to inform the community of school resources and expenditures. Other than our normal monthly checks and balances, our district's financial records are audited on a yearly basis.
|
|
|
|
| How will the LEA meaningfully engage with families and communities throughout the life of the ARP ESSER and other relief funds? |
*
In order to build and foster community partnerships, our LEA makes great strides to effectively involve parents and community stakeholders. Parents and community stakeholders will be invited to offer insight on how ESSER funds will be spent through the use of a survey. Information is compiled and considered when making decisions about how ESSER funds will be most benefit to our students and staff. Parent workshops will be offered quarterly in order for parents to experience the benefit of curriculum materials, programs, and software. Also, community open houses (via in-person and virtual) will be offered in order for the community to receive more information about how these funds are making a positive impact on student achievement, safety, and well-being.
