11. SBDM staffing dilemmas Kelly Koch

17. Tough Decisions Your principal and administration are able to assess the situation prior to presenting to SBDM. It is important to remember this is not personal.

18. Decisions and Decision Makers Only so much money is allotted to each school for salary. It is possible to buy a person with a grant or other funds, however the long term needs of a school need to be considered.

19. Seniority Matters Since JCPS teachers are members of an union, JCTA has guaranteed representation. No one can be let go from the county due to budgeting issues if they have a standing contract. However, budgeting may affect where you are staffed

20. 2004-2005 Budget The budget shortfalls are expected to be minimum for our school because of grant and CSIF funding. However other schools wont be as lucky. State grants are on the chopping block too, such as, YSC and behavior coaching programs.

21. How much involvement is appropriate? Lynn Johnson

22. The Bylaws Composition SBDM consists of 3 teachers, 2 parents, and 1 principal/ administrator. You can increase these numbers but they have to be proportional (6 teachers, 4 parents, 2 principals/administrators, and one non-voting classified staff member).

23. Input from Non-Council Members Outside parties may recommend items by submitting a written report 48hrs prior to the meeting. Once there, they need to sign in and specify their topic of interest. They are then given three minutes to speak on their topic of choice. Input/Reactions will be allowed and discussed before Council makes a decision.

24. Terms of Office If Council is on one-year terms, the members may serve for as many as they are elected. If it is a two-year term, you may only serve one term but my not be reelected to serve consecutive terms. Terms cannot exceed that of a two year.

26. How does the principal direct the completion of the budget?

27. Budgeting It is not required but it is best practice. School councils do have required decision making responsibilities regarding # of personnel which directly affects the budget.

28. Major driving force - CSIP Need as much stakeholder input as possible Role of principal – capacity builder (teachers teach, not principals) Convince teachers they have the right, responsibility, and capacity to serve as leaders

29. SBDM Law

30. Ten Areas for policy adoption. Determination of curriculum Assignment of all instructional and non-instructional staff time Assignment of students to classes and programs within the school Determination of the schedule of the school day and week Determination of use of school space during the school day

SBDM Law (KRS 160.345) also allows authority in the following: Determination of the local school budget Choosing whether or not to implement a committee structure Responsibility to determine textbooks and instructional materials (with teacher input) Hiring the school principal from the list of candidates recommended by the superintendent

34. SB 226 did not pass There might possibly be language added to an existing piece of legislation, but as of now, there is no change in principal selection.

35. Is this within the authority of SBDM? If not, have we gained a waiver? Will this positively affect the achievement of all students? Does this reflect good educational practices? Does this reflect what is best for our school? Is the policy clear and easily understood? Are there health and safety issues to consider? Are there any legal or financial liabilities to consider? Are there contractual issues that must be considered? Can the policy be administered and enforced? Is the policy consistent with state an/or federal laws and regulations? Things to consider when creating policies:

36. SBDM does not have the authority to create policies in the following: Personnel Evaluations Setting graduation requirements Deviate from the Pupil Progression, Promotion, and Grading Guidelines from the JC Board of Ed Councils cannot establish a policy to pay their members Procedures for removing Council members should not be part of the bylaws or schools policies
