  18. Special Education Out-Placements at Elementary Level Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13

  19. Current Special Education Programs within the District • 5 Students in TSP program at KMS. • 10 Students in ASD program at KMS. • 2 Students in Caterpillar program at KCS Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13

  20. “Local Placement” – a definition Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13 A “Local Placement” is a decision which arises from a Special Education meeting in a school district with all stakeholders that have input into a child’s programming, including obviously, the parents. The next slide will examine the cost impact of that “Out Placement”

  21. Excess Cost Aid “Local Placement” Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13 Aid that comes from the state to help defray “some” of the out of district special education costs. Killingly has the responsibility for approximately the first $62,402 per pupil. (4 times the per pupil expenditure) The State will reimburse Killingly for any amount over the $62,402 at the current rate of 77%. Example: If a placement costs $72,402 then the state will reimburse us 77% of $10,000 or $7,700. Killingly would pay the difference of $2,300 additional.

  22. “Agency Placement”—A Definition Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13 An Out Placement of any student that is under the guardianship of a local service agency, (i.e., DCF). This can be driven similar to a “Local Placement” for a student that cannot be serviced by our school system, or……. The Out placement can be driven by the Agency placing the student in an out-of-town residence (foster home, group home). Responsibility for cost falls on the District which has “nexus” over the student (where the parent/guardian currently reside) See cost explanation on next slide

  23. Excess Cost Aid “Agency Placement” Killingly is responsible for the first $13,867 (FY12) per student. State reimburses Killingly at the rate of 77% above that figure. These are Killingly students that may be relocated by state agencies into other districts or agency placements. Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13

  24. Excess Aid • Excess Aid—2012----------------------$990,376 • Excess Aid (Anticipated 2013)------$1,125,365 Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13

  25. Education Cost Sharing (ECS) Connecticut Supreme Court (Horton v. Meskill) – reliance on local property tax revenues without regard to disparities in town wealth held to be unconstitutional Formula has 4 components 1.Foundation ($9687 per student, if fully funded – unchanged since 2007-2008) X 2.Need (Weighted) Students – K through 12, plus FTE Pre-K, plus tuition free summer school – credit also for extended school year. Resident Students, plus 33% of Title I Poverty, plus 15% of Limited English Proficiency Students. Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13

  26. X 3. Aid Ratio (State Support Percentage)– Adjusts for Town per capita income, median household income, and Town wealth, with a guaranteed minimum. X 4.Regional District Bonus—Not applicable to Killingly In Recent years the state has funded about 71% to 72% of the ECS formula Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13

  30. KIS Autism Spectrum Diagnosis Program 2013-14 Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13 Students estimated to be serviced: 2 from EASTCONN Autism at a savings of $160,000 2 from KIS at a savings of $120,000 At these staffing levels another 6 students could be accommodated at a potential savings of another $360,000. Total potential savings of this program vs. cost could be $489,000.

  33. KHS Transition Programming 2013-14 Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13 Currently transitional services for students requiring services through age 21 are outsourced to local agencies at a high cost. Previously the district coordinated these services through United Services, however, these services deteriorated in quality and effectiveness while remaining costly. Out GOAL is to establish an in-district program, in coordination with the KHS Career Center, which will provide the transition services required by IDEA for IEP students.

  34. KHS Transitional Program 2013-14 Proposed Budget Presentation 2/27/13 This program at the High School would come with a cost of $280,000 for staff and materials: 1.0 FTE Special Education Teacher 4.0 FTE Job Coaches Transportation to and from job sites

  35. Elementary Assistant Principal Restoration of 1.0 FTE position of Elementary School Assistant Principal Consistent student numbers along with additional tasks looming ahead for teacher evaluation as well as implementation of Common Core State Standards and Smarter Balanced Assessment. Support the intervention process to effectively manage all students and assist in keeping as many students as possible within the district. Enables Principals to spend more time in classrooms observing instruction. Budget impact: $113,005.40

  36. District Language Arts Coordinator 2013-14 Change 1.0 FTE District Reading Consultant to Language Arts Coordinator. Current position to move to administrative level with additional days and responsibilities commensurate with position. Impact: $15,000 increase to cover the cost of additional days.

  37. Elementary Social WorkerK-4 2013-14 As we develop in-house programming to reduce out-placements current social workers are being utilized to support the programs. Due to the load, IEP counseling hours are not being implemented, putting us out of compliance with IDEA. Budget Impact: $61,000
