2012-13 Budget Outlook

28

State Budget Outlook

• General Fund revenue through October is $115 million above the revenue target

• Despite little improvement in employment, withholding income tax and sales tax collections continue to meet or surpass their targets

• Many of the volatile revenue sources do not show up until the 2nd half of the fiscal year

• Without further strengthening in the State’s economy, revenue for the second quarter could struggle to meet modest target increases relative to the first quarter’s target

29

quarter’s target

• The budget revenue forecast was built on a scenario where the State’s economic conditions would continue to improve each quarter of the fiscal year

• An improving economy will be needed to continue meeting the monthly revenue targets

• Most economists believe the economic recovery is regaining strength. Unfortunately, economic activity will be weak, which means unemployment will remain elevated

CMS Budget Outlook

• Federal EduJobs funds of $25.5M expire September 30, 2012

• Budget plan is based upon the 2nd year of the state biennial budget which includes an increase in the LEA discretionary reduction of $7.0M

• Proactive planning during the 2011-12 budget process resulted in our being positioned to cover the expected funding reductions above

above

• County funding is still uncertain at this time – greatest challenge will continue to be juggling competing needs for county, debt, and education services

• Staff will continue to identify efficiencies and effectiveness savings

• Plan for increase in enrollment of approximately 2,000 students

Build Capacity Through Professional Development

A technology integrator should be

available in each building to train and building to train and support teachers as

they learn to use technology effectively

in classrooms. (Star, 2009)

55

Results

Only through ongoing, consistent, leveled professional development

opportunities can users gain the technology skills and confidence

needed to teach the new literacies.

(Larson, Middle & Ribble, 2010)

Teachers cite four areas for

PD as most essential:

content knowledge, U.S. investments in teacher

learning appear to be

56

content knowledge,

classroom management,

students with special

needs, and technology.

(Adamson, Darling-Hammond & Wei, 2010)

learning appear to be

increasingly focused on the least

effective models of professional

development—short-term

workshops that research

suggests are unlikely to

influence practice and student

achievement.

(Adamson, Darling-Hammond & Wei, 2010)

Impact

Research indicates that computer technology can help support

learning and is especially useful in developing the higher-order

skills of critical thinking, analysis, and scientific inquiry “by

engaging students in authentic, complex tasks within

collaborative learning contexts.”
