voted approval for the $2.5 million expenditure.
New Position
After the supervisors agreed to exercise their right to approve the school budget by categories rather than ‘‘bottom line,” chairman Dick Latham told the school board that a decision will be reached by next Monday, May 3, on the salary scale for teachers.
He also asked for elaboration on the new position, director of special services, included in the proposed budget.
Lysik now devotes 70 percent of his time to special education as the result of the "very sudden, very hard impact of special education laws,” Estabrook said. “They came fast and they came very expensive."
The new director would assume responsibility for the “nuts and bolts” operation of special education as well as Title I programs, he said, leaving Lysik more time for "instructional concerns.”
Massie noted that the board has received several directives on special education in the past two weeks from the State Department of Education, emphasizing that special education needs must be documented. "Homework must be done at the divisional level...We expect to give these services but we have to follow the mandates from the state in order to get reimbursement.”
