School Information

13,500 students Pre-K through 12th grade All the buildings are in relatively good condition,

and not in disrepair. Budget being used for maintenance is an issue

that is significant and a priority in budget planning.

Staff Information

2011-2012 Number of Staff (per previous slide): 60

2012-2013 Number of Staff: Projected at 51 25 classroom teachers = 22:1 ratio for 547

students (lower than average) 26 additional staff members

Demographics

68 % Anglo19% Hispanic11% African American2% other

Campus Demographics

71% Anglo18% African American9% Hispanic2% Other

Test Scores

Higher than average testing scores as shown by the state exams.

Focus on encouraging these numbers with economic viability in mind.

CISD has a history of high achievement and a strong potential for student population growth.

Schools

10 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, 2 high schools, one early childhood center and one alternative campus.

The district has maintained a consisteng rate of 2.5%-4% growth for the past 15 years.

Predictive increase of 10% but this has not happened yet.

Campus Goals

To support our students in a wide variety of ways.

To support trades training. Encourage high ability student excellence. Reasonably fund these goals with an eye to

economic viability.

Budget Plan Overview

Approach Line-Item Advantages; easily applied historically,

though it has less flexibility. Need to review potential need for new

expenditures as necessary.

Ideal Budget Estimations

Reduction in cost to 100.00 dollars per student. Expanded in the future if necessary, seeking out

other grants or financial sources. Local funding taxes are also an option that

should be considered. School has history of bonds being passed over

the past 20 years to increase funding for schools

Budget Goals

Use maintence funds for repair of schools not for increases in staff or salaries.

Seek out and prioritize bonds/taxes in locality to increase student funding.

Encourage teacher communication and parent discussion of budget setting goals.

Needs Accessment

Using student evaluation methods which include standardized testing, and portfolio review our school has will have a set point to approach budget needs.

Compare quality and price with accessment results in mind.

Create online accessment that parents take to determine their priorities and questions.

Parent Accessment

Questions1) From a scale of 1-5 how do you rate your

students campus? 2) From a scale of 1-5 how do you rate the

communication from your students school? 3) From a scale of 1-5 how do you rate the

updates you have received concerning school budget setting?

Parent Accessment

4) From a scale of 1-5 how would you rate the trades training choices for your student?

5) From a scale of 1-5 how would you rate the opportunities for advanced classes that your student has received?

6) From a scale of 1-5 how would you rate the school districts website communication?

7) What suggestions would you have for us?

Governmental Funds

Various governmental funds which we would apply to support our academic aims.

Application estimations are based on average numbers gathered per year, and shown in the Excel sheet associated with this presentation.

Focus would be on supporting trades training, high achievement students, and increasing maintenance funds use for that aim.

Title I, Part A: Improving the Academic Achievement of the

DisadvantagedGrant one which our school will apply for. Title I is the largest source of federal

education funding, providing over $14 billion to schools with high numbers or percentages of children living in poverty. Schools may operate a targeted program, in which services are provided to children who are failing or at risk of failing. Schools operating a schoolwide program may provide services to all students.

Title II, Part A: Improving Teaching Quality

Title II funds are intended to increase the number of high-quality, effective teachers and principals. Funds can be used for a variety of purposes, from recruiting and retaining teachers to reducing class sizes, or providing professional development.

Technical Credit Grant Program (ATC)

The purpose of the 2013-2014 Advanced Technical Credit (ATC) grant program, also known as statewide articulation, is to support students interested in preparing for college and a technical career that requires postsecondary education. The program provides students with opportunities to earn college credit while in high school by taking enhanced high school Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses that have been aligned with postsecondary technical courses.

Budget Setting

We are assumign receive a Improving the Academic Achievement of the Disadvantaged grant for 16,000,000 dollars, and have distributed funds based on projections from proposed past years.

This method needs consistent review if new needs arise, such as computers/technology, or student populations increase.
