2. Action Items
|
|
2.1. Discuss, consider and take action to approve the extension of the Bel Air counselor position from 0.8 FTE to 1.0 FTE
Rationale:
Additional counseling time is needed to address the student enrollment growth at Bel Air caused by our Student Growth Plan. Bel Air is expected to have an enrollment of approximately 350 students next year - compared to an average of approximately 240 at our other elementary schools. Mrs. Andreasen has indicated that "the support of a counselor that is here all five days is crucial for me to keep things running smoothly overall, as well as with behavioral support." The addition of Specials time (which includes counseling classes) was anticipated and approved as part of our Student Growth Plan.
Recommended Motion(s):
A motion to approve the extension of the Bel Air counselor position from 0.8 FTE to 1.0 FTE passed with a motion by Board Member #1 and a second by Board Member #2.
