RANDOLPH, Utah. October 19, 2016. The Utah Consolidated Association (CDA) Plan was presented
to the School Board. This is a budget
plan of how the district is going to spend federal monies along with some state
monies, making sure that they stay within federal and state requirements and
still meet needs of our local schools.
One of the requirements is that the budget must be presented before the
School Board. The following is just some
of the items mentioned.
The Title 1A money of $51,043 is for salaries for aides in
the South Rich Elementary, since this is where the highest need and lowest
scores were found. It will also be used
for travel for outings, supplies, and administrative help.
Title 2 funds are for professional teacher development and
pays for conference registrations, travel, and lodging, as well as supplies and
materials. Additional monies will go to
early childhood programs and reading achievement. It will also be used for salaries and benefits for full-day kindergarten
teachers. It covers the cost of a
literary specialist. Early intervention
is also included.
State Funds go for school enhancement, tutoring programs,
summer programs, conference registrations, as well as supplies and incentives.
The IDE (Individual Disabilities Education) Act is for
special pre school programs for handicapped individuals. Currently Rich County
only has a speech program. It also helps with
salaries and benefits. It covers special
school needs of K through adult up to age 22. This is for salaries and benefits for
aides. Currently there are three special
education individuals with many aides.
The motion was made and accepted to approve this use of
these monies. There was one vote in
opposition to the acceptance of this program.
