Attachment X.E.1 Childcare Program Coordinator
Due to recent childcare licensing regulations, we are requesting approval to move the position to EUPISD. The position is currently on Edustaff as a Preschool Supervisor and with the recent changes to childcare licensing and the responsibilities for evaluating and supervising staff, this is more appropriate as an ISD payroll position to align with our other positions. A portion of this position will also be funded by the Great Start Readiness Grant. The annual salaried pay will remain the same for 220 days. Attachment X.E.2 Occupational Therapy Assistant (OTA) The previous job description, Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA) was approved for 185 days.
