Superintendent’s Potential Budget Reductions Class size – An increase of an average of 1 student per class at each school level would eliminate 193.4 teacher positions. This is in addition to the 240.0 positions cut to increase class size by an average of 1 for FY2011. Staff Development Teachers – Reducing the 174.1 positions budgeted for elementary and secondary schools by 75.9 (43 percent) would leave 98.2 positions. Special and alternative education programs would receive a reduction of 3.5 positions.
11
Superintendent’s Potential Budget Reductions Instrumental Music Teachers – A reduction of 4.0 of the 37.2 instrumental music teacher positions would require that students receive instruction in larger groups and some students may receive less support. Counselors – A cut of 10.0 elementary and 10.0 middle school counselors would reduce the ratio of students to professionals and severely impact services to at-risk students. In FY 2011, 9.0 positions were cut from the budget.
12
Superintendent’s Potential Budget Reductions Elementary Paraeducators, Lunch Hour Aides, Parent Community Coordinators – A cut of 20.0 paraeducators, 6.0 lunch hour aides, and 2.2 parent community coordinators will reduce support at a time of significant student growth. There was a reduction of 27.0 paraeducators in FY 2011. Instructional Data Assistant Hours – A reduction of 16.4 elementary and 4.75 middle school positions will reduce support to administrators and teachers who use student data to drive educational decisions.
13
Superintendent’s Potential Budget Reductions Media Assistants – A reduction of 23.0 elementary, 8.0 middle, and 7.5 high school positions will require a change in the current enrollment-based guidelines for allocating these positions to schools. Overall, support to students will be decreased. There were 10.5 positions cut over the last two years. ESOL Counselors/Staffing Ratios - A reduction of 5.0 ESOL counselors would reduce the number of positions from 11.0 to 6.0. A reduction of 9.1 teacher positions would increase the students to staff ratio by.8 for elementary schools,.5 for middle schools, and.6 for high schools. There was a reduction of 6.0 ESOL teachers in the FY 2011 budget.
