SLT meeting – I was telling everyone at the SLT meeting earlier that we don’t have Title I designation status this year. All schools that didn’t fill out lunch forms lost their Title I designation status. They technically gave us the Title I funding for this year only, even though they didn’t request us to fill out these forms till this year. But the DOE will be watching the said Title I funds they gave us. That’s why this year we asked everyone to fill out lunch forms to see if we can regain our Title I status for the upcoming school year. We need 60/65% to regain our Title I status.
-
Wit & Wisdom – Wit and Wisdom will be rolled out in the Fall 2024 in district 2. We will be doing some piloting of the program this Spring as a District. For Math, we use the Eureka Squared math curriculum, but as a district, we do not all use the same Math Curriculum. I will send more information when available.

Our District got some grant money to pay for afterschool programs. CPC received grant money for 12 students.
Thank you to the PA for the tireless fundraising.
