8. 2. Consider Approving Removing 0209 Building Code (Middle School)
ACTION
Due to 7th and 8th grades moving to the High School building, there is a need to remove the building code of 0209 (Middle School). Each building site has a unique code associated with it. The district can now classify classes as PreK through 6th as elementary and 7th through 12th as secondary. Mrs. Bergman and Mr. Pedersen have talked to the Department of Education and it was recommended to remove building code 0209.  This will change the building numbers for all Department of Education reports to 0109 for high school and 0409 for elementary. This reporting will help make it easier for ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act) reporting also.  The board will need to make the motion to reclassify the structure at the Clarinda Community School District as PreK through 6th (0409) as elementary and 7th through 12th (0109) as secondary.

Recommendation
Remove 0209 Building Code (Middle School).

Recommendation
Approve the supplemental contract adjustment for Linda VandenBosch

 
8. 4. Consider the Supplemental Contract Adjustment for Ajia Whipp
ACTION
Ms. Whipp assists with the high school marching band program in the fall. In the past, her supplemental contract did not reflect this responsibility and needs to be accounted for on her supplemental contract.

Approve the supplemental contract adjust for Ajia Whipp for the 2020-2021 school year.

 
8. 5. Consider Approving the Hiring of a .4,Temporary Custodial Position Lasting Six Months to be Extended as Needed

            8.1 Consider Approving the Home School Assistance Teacher Contracts for 2020-2021

            ACTION

            There are 24 enrolled in Competent Private Instruction (CPI) and 37 enrolled in the

Independent Private Instruction (IPI). Students who are enrolled under CPI provide us

with the curriculum they are taught and are eligible for dual enrollment. Students who

completed the IPI forms do not have to report any academic progress and are not eligible

for any services in the school. Of the 24 CPI students, 13 are eligible for dual enrollment.

Dual enrollment allows them to attend classes, participate in field trips, use the library,

and participate in school activities. These students generate revenue depending on their

grade and the extent they participate in CCSD classes and activities.

 

Nineteen of the 24 students are interested in participating in the Home School Assistance (HSA) program. The HSA program provides a teacher who oversees their academic work (15 hours per quarter per student). In exchange for that oversight, the district receives some funding to pay a certified teacher to provide the services. When the enrollment count is complete, you will see partial numbers, which indicates the weighting CCSD gets for students who are not full-time.

 

Mrs. Davies is a certified teacher who at one time worked as a special education teacher in our district. As in the past, we have had an agreement with Mrs. Davies to serve as our HSA teacher for those students who would like her assistance. By having her serve as the HSA teacher, she receives $15 per hour per student for up to 60 hours per student each year. Parents of the students in the program are asked to sign a time sheet that verifies Mrs. Davies has actually provided services for those students at the end of each quarter. Mrs. Davies will meet with Mr. Pedersen and Mrs. Wellhausen quarterly to verify student progress and accurate invoicing.

RECOMMENDATION

Approve contracts with Lexy Davies to serve as the Home School Assistance teacher for the 2020-2021 school year.

 

            8.2 Consider Approving the Cooperative Agreement with University of Northern Iowa

ACTION

This agreement allows University of Northern Iowa students to student teacher in the CCSD district. This could include other educational experiences such as observations, practicums, etc.

RECOMMENDATION

            Approve the Cooperative Agreement with University of Northern Iowa

 

            8.3 Consider Approving the Selection of Mrs. Bergman to the 2020-2021 Leadership

      Iowa Class

ACTION

Leadership Iowa is Iowa’s premier issues-awareness program promoting leadership and civic responsibility in our state. Through an integrated series of eight monthly sessions, participants are provided with a wide range of eye-opening experiences and insights that highlight the opportunities and challenges facing Iowa. Each year, 40 individuals are selected to participate in Leadership Iowa. Throughout their year with the program (October through June), participants convene in an Iowa community each month for a two-day session. Each session focuses on a specific topic or issue important to Iowa, allowing participants to step outside of their areas of expertise and gain a refreshed, insider’s perspective on the condition, needs and future of our state. The diverse topics of Leadership Iowa session typically include: agriculture, education, government, healthcare, economic development, advances manufacturing, workforce and other pertinent subjects. Each session features unique interactive experiences, discussions with industry experts, collaborative group activities, industry tours, networking opportunities and more.

 

RECOMMENDATION

8.4 Consider Approving the Mask Donations

ACTION

The district has received donations of masks from Grace Crosby and Anchor Homes.

RECOMMENDATION

            ACTION

            The grant would cover four areas: Staff Self Care (have Yoga classes and an instructor),

Student Empowerment and Culture (provide 7/8th graders with Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits

of Highly Effective Teenagers to go along with the LeaderInMe program), E-

Learning (purchase additional Swivls, stands and iPads for classrooms), and Student

Support/Self Care (seating, lighting and decorative accents for the 7/8th grade Take a

    1. Consider Approving Request for Modified Allowable Growth and Supplemental Aid for the 2019-2020 School Year Special Education Deficit

ACTION

As a standard practice, administration asks the board to consider approving the application for additional allowable growth and supplemental aid. In addition to the overall general operating fund budget, school districts monitor revenues and expenditures of the special education program and report annually to the Department of Education.

Districts can spend more than they take in for special education, but the excess expense must be covered with general fund dollars. When the district reports a negative fund balance in special education, that state allows districts to recover the spending authority for those expenditures. For the 2019-2020 fiscal year, the district spent approximately

$365,235.41 ($339,270.92 for 2018-19) more than receivable revenue and is approximately $25,964.49 more than the previous year. The School Budget Review Committee (SBRC) will consider allowing recovery of the budget authority in October.
