Workers' Compensation Trust A cooperative program of

Educational Service District 113

Date: March 9, 201 7

To: Superintendents and Business Managers

From: Paul Chasco, Worker Compensation Trust Administrator

Re: Worker Compensation Rates for fiscal year 2017-2018

The ESD 113 Workers ' Compensation Trust Executive Committee and Advisory Board are pleased to announce a small decrease in the base rate for fiscal year 2017 - 2018 . The combined base rate will decrease 0.4% to $0.4268 per worker hour. The actual dollars your district will pay may change as a result of your district's experience factor (noted below), which is a direct reflection of your district ' s claims experience. These rates are effective September 1, 2017.

Your worker compensation costs are driven by three factors:

1. Trust loss history - how many employees were injured and the paid costs to resolve the claims

2. Claim Reserve - amount of money required to pay current and past claims that are still unresolved

3. Individual loss history - the number of injury claims and their costs for your own school district

Your district can maintain or achieve a lower premium through an active Safety program and Early Return to Work program. Our knowledgeable and experienced staff is available to assist you with any of your worker compensation needs from claim questions and assisting with safety trainings. Please feel free to contact our staff members for assistance.

Attached is a copy of the 2017-18 rating calculation worksheet for your district. This worksheet contains a lot of information that I would be happy to discuss with you either by phone or by visiting with you at your district. We look forward to assisting you with any requests you may have.

Listed below are 2017 - 2018 rating calculations and experience factor for your district.

This Week in Review

Following a week-and-a-half of action, mostly in the respective House and Senate Chambers, most of the activity returned to legislative committees. With the house of origin cut-off passed, committees resumed meetings to hear and act on opposite house bills.

On Tuesday, the House Capital Budget Committee held a public hearing on three education construction bills. First up was SB 5644, which would require a host district of a Skills Center cooperative to maintain a separate capital account for minor repair and maintenance costs of the Skills Center. Additionally, it would require participating school districts to make annual deposits into the separate capital account. It is clarified that the annual deposits may be a per-pupil facility fee charged by the host district.

A bill introduced to assist small school districts, SB 5453 would create a new Small, Rural District School Construction Assistance Program for school districts that, because of low assessed property values or high indebtedness, are not eligible for School Construction Assistance Program modernization grants. Eligibility would be limited to schools with less than one thousand students.

SB 5702, the third bill on the list, is a follow-up to the interim activities of the School Construction Technical Work Group. The bill would provide for a comprehensive update of the School Construction Assistance Program (SCAP). It would expand the role and membership of the School Facilities Citizens Advisory Committee; establish four new, specific components of SCAP; positively amend and extend the K–3 Class Size Reduction Grant Program; and establish a Joint Legislative Task Force on Improving State Funding for School Construction to provide recommendations for further formula enhancements and funding of SCAP.

All three bills were positively received by the Committee and is another good indication that legislators intend on following through on their commitments to revise SCAP. Additionally, it continues to appear that both houses are again prioritizing school construction. Capital Budget proposals should be introduced with—or shortly

TWIO | March 17, 2017

after—Operating Budget proposals. Those proposals will tell the true tale of how much of a priority K–12 construction will receive.

This week, in addition to hearing several House bills, the Senate Early Learning & K–12 Education Committee took the opportunity to hold a series of work sessions. On Monday, the Committee received a briefing on the state’s plan to implement the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) from OSPI. On Tuesday, the Committee reviewed professional educator certification requirements. Staff from the Professional Educator Standards Board provided a review of Second Tier Certification and also shared a packet of information entitled “Who Can Teach in Washington State.” The comprehensive document describes the requirements of certification, and provides a defense of ProTeach. The Committee closed out the week on Thursday with a review of Educational Service Districts provided by John Welch (PSESD) and Dana Anderson (Capital Region ESD 113), who were representing AESD.

Levy Cliff Update

As we reported last week, the Senate and House adopted legislation to delay the Levy Cliff. On Wednesday, Governor Inslee sealed the deal by signing SB 5023 into law. During the bill signing ceremony, the governor reminded everyone that this bill “provides school districts, families, and students the certainty they deserve and need as districts prepare their budgets for the next school year.” Throughout the session, Senate Republicans said they were reluctant to adopt a Levy Cliff delay because they feared it would “take their foot off the gas pedal” to solve the overall McCleary problem. We argued that the Levy Cliff was an avoidable distraction and the delay will allow legislators—and educators—to focus on an Education Funding Plan. Inslee relayed the same message, saying “This clears the way to focus on the larger task ahead, fully funding education this year,” adding that adoption of the bill “does not remove the motivation to fulfill the constitutional obligation to our students.”

March 15 was a good day for schools—even with continuing questions about the adopted version of SB 5023 and concerns about how districts would implement the added provisions in the bill. Remember, in order to secure a compromise deal in the Senate allowing the bill to be passed, two provisions were added to the bill. Both provisions mirrored language contained in SB 5607, the Senate Republican Education Funding Plan. The first, an accounting provision, requires, levy collections to be deposited into a local revenue “subfund” of the general fund, beginning with levies collected in Calendar Year 2018. The purpose is to “allow for a detailed accounting of the amount and object of expenditures from the levy collections.” OSPI and the State Auditor’s Office must develop guidance for districts to carry out this requirement.

The second provision, addressing accountability, requires districts, beginning with ballot propositions submitted to the voters in Calendar Year 2018, to provide a report to OSPI detailing the programs and activities to be funded through the M&O levy and OSPI must review and approve the district’s report prior to the M&O election. This is intended to ensure that M&O levy funds are not used for basic education programs. Language in the bill clarifies that using M&O levy funds for “enrichment” beyond the state-provided funding in the state Operating Budget for basic education program components is allowed.

Originally it was hoped that OSPI would provide some prompt guidance to school districts regarding these new provisions to help alleviate concerns. Superintendent Reykdal did respond promptly, but in a note to school administrators he stated: “For now, you shouldn’t expect guidance from OSPI.” He said the Levy Cliff is only one part of a larger conversation, noting the real task for this Legislature is to adopt a final McCleary funding package. He did add that if the Legislature fails to adopt a solution in a timely fashion, his office would have to provide necessary guidance.

We will continue to urge legislators to resolve these issues by adopting amendatory language as a part of any final Education Funding Plan. The task for school administrators, in particular school business managers, is to determine what kind of clarification is necessary. Knowing that, we can incorporate those necessary clarifications into our advocacy efforts on education funding.

Education Funding Plans

The Education Funding Plans are essentially in a holding pattern. As we reported in the last two TWIOs, a “reconstituted” Education Funding Task Force (EFTF) is meeting and has scheduled regular meetings through the end of the Regular Session. It is our understanding, however, that they have not tackled any of the major issues, yet, and have not even really begun to negotiate. Apparently, during their initial meetings they have talked in very general terms about how they should proceed. Soon, they are anticipated to start working through the major provisions of the Education Funding Plans, one by one. Likely this will be a long and drawn out process.

As these discussions continue behind-the-scenes, we will continue to try and provide influence however we can. Because the eight members comprising the EFTF likely will not be given authority to speak for their respective caucuses, touching every legislator continues to be important. It is incumbent on us to remind legislators of those issues that are “must haves” in any plan, as well as those issues that are non-starters and cannot be supported. WASA and WASBO, along with other members of the Local Funding Workgroup, are currently in the process of developing a unified list of those issues. Stay tuned. As this list is built, we continue to encourage you to familiarize yourself with the current plans and provide your input to us.

Budget Update

With the imminent release of Operating Budget proposals, the focus in Olympia will quickly shift away from the Education Funding Plans. A solution to McCleary won’t be overshadowed for long, however, given that a major emphasis of budget proposals and a final 2017–19 Operating Budget will be funding to implement an Education Funding Plan. On Thursday, the last puzzle piece to start the budget process was in place. The Economic & Revenue Forecast Council released its quarterly update of the state Revenue Forecast. Projected revenues for 2017–19 are up approximately $303 million over the November forecast. If you include the projected increase in the current 2015–17 biennium of $247 million, the total available new money is over $550 million. (Note: this presumes a 2017 Supplemental Budget is minimal. Any added funding in the Supplemental Budget will lower this total; however, the Legislature will certainly have at least the $300+ million to use next biennium.)

While this is good news, the additional revenues still fall short of what is necessary to support an AMPLY funded education system. Senate Republicans continue to argue they can fund their Education Funding Plan and other necessary state services without any new revenues. Following the release of the Revenue Forecast, one of the first questions to the Senate and House budget-writers, Senator John Braun (R-Centralia) and Timm Ormsby (D-Spokane), was “What effect will the new forecast have on the soon-to-be-released budget proposals?” Sen. Braun quickly responded, saying the new revenue would “allow us to look for additional investments and look for tax relief and opens up additional options as we develop our final proposed budget.” Rep. Ormsby was more circumspect and simply said the new numbers would allow his caucus to finalize the development of a budget. Later, Braun added that he has always believed that the revenue available under current law was enough “to meet our requirements for funding public education, and for providing the basic social safety net,” noting he remains “confident that we don’t need additional revenue.” Asked

http://www.erfc.wa.gov/index.html

http://www.erfc.wa.gov/forecasts/documents/rev20170316.pdf



if he shares the same view, Ormsby simply replied, “I do not,” adding additional revenues will be necessary to meet “our obligations through Court orders, McCleary being primary, and the pace at which we satisfy our constitutional obligations in education, mental health, foster kids, and improvements in the gaps remaining from the recession in the delivery of critical government services.” Ormsby was unwilling to address where additional revenue would/could come from, other than to say “We have a lot of options,” indicating some of those ideas would be a part of the House’s Operating Budget proposal.

Senate Republicans, who start the budget process this year, originally were expected to release their proposal early next week. In recent days, there have been rumblings that they may need to delay that release, by perhaps as much as two weeks. Regardless of when budget proposals are released, we will provide a prompt review in Special Editions of TWIO. With the huge philosophical divide between the House and Senate regarding revenue needs (among other things), the negotiations on a new two-year budget will be a difficult and potentially protracted process—especially given the necessary simultaneous negotiations on an Education Funding Plan. The 2017 Regular Session is scheduled to end on April 23. Few Olympia observers, however, have any hope the Legislature will complete its business by then.

Federal Budget Update

As we await budget proposals from the Legislature, the federal budget is a major topic of conversation in the other Washington. On Thursday morning, President Trump released his preliminary Fiscal Year 2018 (FY18) budget proposal. The proposal only includes discretionary, not mandatory, spending. Mandatory spending, which includes Medicare, Social Security, and debt interest, comprises approximately 73 percent of the budget. The remaining 27 percent of the overall federal budget is considered discretionary spending. The budget would make major reductions in 15 federal agencies (from a 31 percent reduction in the Environmental Protection Agency down to a one percent cut in NASA), while another 19 agencies would be completely eliminated. Three agencies would receive increases (Defense Department, Department of Homeland Security, and Department of Veterans Affairs).

The Department of Education would receive an almost 14 percent cut ($9.2 billion), but the proposal also includes a significant increase for “school choice” programs. It would provide a $1 billion increase for Title I; however, the increase is for states and districts to use for portability and choice. Additionally, $250 million would be provided for a new school choice/voucher program and a $168 million increase would be provided for charters, bringing the total amount of NEW funding in the President’s budget for choice to $1.4 billion.

Other changes in education funding from FY17 are following:

PROGRAM CHANGE FROM 2017Grants to states for teacher training ($2.4 billion)Grants to colleges for teacher preparation ($43 million)Impact Aid ($66 million)Special Education No ChangeCollege Work-Study Reduce “significantly”Upward Bound & Related TRIO Programs ($200 million)SEOG program for low-income college students ($732 million)Pell Grants No ChangePell Reserves ($3.9 billion)



https://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/whitehouse.gov/files/omb/budget/fy2018/2018_blueprint.pdf



In addition to the cuts above, a series of education programs are also proposed for elimination, including: Title II, Part A; 21st Century Learning Communities; and Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant program. Another twenty categorical programs would be eliminated, including: Striving Readers; Teacher Quality Partnership; Impact Aid Support Payments for Federal Property; and International Education programs.

AASA Executive Director Dan Domenech provided a statement critical of the budget, noting the proposal doesn’t prioritize investment in the key federal programs that support our nation’s public schools. His statement is available here.

AEA

By Mitch Denning

As the regular session enters its final five weeks, the scope of bills alive is narrowing, and this process allows us to focus on educating opposite house members on the importance of these bills to our K–12 students. It’s also a time to band together with our coalition partners and make a concerted effort in helping urge our lawmakers to pass bills which promote effective K–12 fiscal and program policy.

On Monday, WSNA was invited, along with other student nutrition, non-K–12 advocates, to help plan strategy in the Senate for ESHB 1508, WA Kids Ready to Learn Act of 2017. This was a unique opportunity as we were invited to attend the planning meeting by Rep. Monica Stonier (D-Vancouver), prime sponsor of the bill. Along with her in attendance were Rep. Mia Gregerson (D-SeaTac) and Rep. Zack Huggins (D-Tukwila). Led by Rep. Stonier, we strategized salient points of the bill and precisely how to educate our colleagues in the Senate on how their Yes vote would directly benefit our students.

Our WSNA AEA board members then developed some talking points on the bill. Yesterday I met with Sens. Mark Mullet (D-Issaquah) and Christine Rolfes (D-Bainbridge Island) who welcomed the opportunity not only to help hungry kids become more ready to learn by having breakfast in the classroom, but also the opportunity for secondary students to participate in dropout prevention programs available through the Farm-to-School section of ESHB 1508. The bill will be heard in Senate Early Learning/K–12 on Tuesday, March 21.

On Tuesday, WAMOA testified in support of SSB 5702, improving state funding for school construction, modernization and asset preservation, in House Capital Budget. The bill had previously passed out of the Senate by a 49–0 vote, so we urged strong support of this bill. Again, WAMOA has championed the formation of a Joint Task Force on School Construction Funding for the last two sessions, and hopes that it will soon become a reality. Our position is that with all the data gathered on various aspects of the School Construction Assistance Program and related topics by the School Construction Technical Working Group during the 2016 interim, a legislative group beyond House Capital Budget and Senate Ways & Means needs to guide the process of improving state funding for K–12 school construction during the 2017 interim.

Other AEA bills we’re continuing to watch include,

1. SB 5664, federal forest land basic education funding, which eliminates the reduction of a district’s basic education allocation due to receipt of federal forest revenue, was heard in House Appropriations on March 13;



http://aasa.org/policy-blogs.aspx?id=40878&blogid=84002






2. ESHB 1017, school siting, which allows schools to be sited outside the urban growth area, will be heard in Senate Early Learning/K–12 on March 23;

3. SSB 5453, School Construction Assistance Program (SCAP) modernization grants for small, rural districts, designed for districts that due to low assessed valuations or high indebtedness, aren’t eligible for the regular SCAP program, would become eligible for the small, rural district SCAP, was heard in House Capital Budget on March 14;

4. SSB 5644, skill center facility maintenance, which provides for a separate account to be set up by the host district in skill center district cooperatives, where member districts would contribute funds for minor repair and maintenance, was also heard in House Capital Budget on March 14, and is scheduled to move out during an executive session on March 21; and

5. SHB 1551, Apple-A-Day Program, which would provide grant funding for kitchen equipment and repairs which when completed, thereby enhancing school nutrition programs for districts, will be heard in Senate Early Learning/K–12 on March 21.

Pensions/Health Benefits

By Fred Yancey – The Nexus Group

“Vision without Execution Is Just

Hallucination”

Anonymous

The wait is on, as legislators hold committee hearings and begin to move bills from the opposite house.

Interesting trivia: Senators sponsored 1,245 bills; Representatives, 1,421. Out of these gross numbers, 283 passed the Senate (23%) and 376 passed the House (26%). These are the bills over which the respective bodies are currently holding hearings. These figures represent an uncharacteristically low number of bills passed by either house.

Consequently, some committees have already concluded their hearings on bills before them. And all attention moves to the upcoming unveiling of Senate and House budget proposals as early as next week (Senate) and the following week (House).

Although, the final biennial budget is unknown, of greater importance may be what other bills/proposals will be held hostage in order to get agreement and move to adjournment. This is where some bills presumed ‘dead’ may well come back to life. Stay tuned.

Pension Related Proposals

SB 5833 – Addressing the minimum retirement allowance under the teachers’ retirement system, Plan 1.

This bill provides a 4.5% increase to the TRS 1 Basic Minimum Benefit and 4.5% increase to the TRS 1 Alternative Minimum Benefit. It passed out of the Senate










49–0. Without this bill, TRS 1 and PERS 1 minimum benefits will increase by 3% automatically. Fiscal impact is $4-9 million dollars.

Status: The House Appropriations Committee held a hearing March 15. The Chair has indicated he would not be moving the bill out of committee. (It appears that any bill with a fiscal impact will not be moved.) This bill is still being worked and is NTIB.

HB 1560 – Addressing plan membership default provisions in the public employees’ retirement system, the teachers’ retirement system, and the school employees’ retirement system.

If new employees make no pension plan choice, they are defaulted/enrolled in Plan 3 (a hybrid defined contribution/ defined benefit plan). This bill would make Plan 2 (a full defined benefit plan) the default plan if they make no selection.

Status: The bill was voted out of the House, 91–7, and has been passed to the Senate Ways & Means Committee. No hearing has yet to be scheduled. Yet, according to the State Actuary, it saves the State money over time ($25 million) due to the increased enrollment and contributions into Plan 2. It is NTIB.

Health Benefit Related Proposals

SB 5726 – Addressing public school employee benefits.

This bill’s intent is to provide public school employees with equitable access to quality and affordable health benefits through the state health care authority (HCA). The standard employee benefit plans would be only those available through the HCA/Public Employee Benefit Board (PEEB).

This bill is NTIB and may be part of the final McCleary solution.

Status: This bill did not move beyond Rules, but is NTIB.

As an aside: WEA went through a procurement process seeking re-bids on member benefit offerings. Premera chose not to participate after serving WEA for over 50 years. WEA selected Aetna and United Health Care as the plans to be offered next year to the 109,000 WEA members. Premium setting will occur over the summer. Proposals for the state offerings through the Public Employee Benefit Board (PEBB) are due in April.

The “they’ll fly; they’ll not fly” predictions regarding replacing the Affordable Care Act with a new Trump Care model have sown confusion in this whole health insurance arena. The net effect on any future premiums is unknown.

Meanwhile, school districts should not expect any substantial increase, if at all, in the benefit dollars paid to districts by the state.

Family and Medical Leave

SHB 1116 – Implementing Family and Medical Leave Insurance.

This bill would grant new leaves from a newly established account funded by a charge paid by both employers and employees.

Status: This bill is presumed ‘dead’.

SB 5829 – Addressing paid family leave.

This bill declares that it is in the public’s interest to provide reasonable paid family leave. Its sponsors are Senators Fain (R), Keiser (D), Conway (D), and Hunt (D).

Status: This bill is presumed dead.









Comment: The above bills represent efforts to add various leaves as employee benefits. The House bill is paid by both employer/employee, while the Senate proposal is paid solely by the employee. Many legislators are sensitive to this issue and it lobbied very hard by various social oriented labor groups. Although ‘dead’, this issue could be part of the final negotiations toward sine die.

SHB 1434 – The Washington state leave sharing program is modified allow use by a fellow state employee who is sick or temporarily disabled because of pregnancy disability or for the purpose of parental leave.

Status: This bill passed the House, (68–30), and has been referred to the Senate State Government Committee. It is scheduled for a hearing, March 24.

Aberdeen School District Technology Plan 2017-2020

School District: Aberdeen School District #5

Technology Plan Section Goals & Strategies

Describe how your technology connects to your district’s educational goals.

Technology supports our district learning goals exceptionally well. We have had a strong history of technology use in our district and will continue to support and implement pedagogy and curriculum content that takes advantage of current and future technology innovations. The Mission of the Aberdeen School District is to be a strong, inspirational learning community that empowers students to embrace life’s opportunities. Our Vision is that our graduates are goal-oriented, independent and capable; passionate in pursuit of their aspirations; resilient and adaptable risk takers, and fully engaged in improving their lives and the lives of others. As a district, we have six major goal areas that are constantly being reviewed, refined and supported with district, state and federal resources. Goal 1, Teaching and Learning, states that as a district we will, “develop critical thinking skills in every student through instruction that is rigorous and individually relevant, supplemented by technology that is bold, intentional and seamless.” Our goal over the past three years was to implement a 1:1 program for all students in grades K-12. Providing equity for all students through the support of our educational technology is an important district goal. We have achieved this goal and are looking forward to enhancing student learning for all students at all levels with the ongoing use of technology in the classroom. Technology also connects to our other goal areas (School Climate, Community and Parent Engagement, Empowerment, Creative Independence, and Stewardship) in various ways. We have robust filtering in place for our students and staff that is continually refined and updated as needed to meet CIPA guidelines.


Communication is another goal area that is extremely important in our district. The use of technology to achieve this goal will be ongoing and refined over the next 3-5 years. We currently use our district email system (Google Mail) to communicate with all staff and students in grades 3-12. Google classroom allows teachers to communicate with students and provide a platform for assignments, links to content, and updates for students. Below is a list of communication software currently used throughout the school district.

• Blackboard – webpages, district app, messaging and calling services. • Google Apps for K-12 Education – email, calendars, documents, surveys,

registrations, meetings, Google classroom. • Skyward – Student Information System (SIS) used for student record keeping, parent

login for accessing grades, attendance and lunch account balances. It also is our district staff record keeping and absence reporting system.

• Zoom – online group communication platform for video, voice and document sharing • Twitter – used for updates and highlighting district events. • Facebook – district Facebook page is currently set up, however it is something that

will be addressed in the future as the district moves forward with more outreach using social media.

• Remind 101 – Remind is used by individual teachers to stay in touch with parents. While this is just a sampling of the communication software that is used, we are reviewing the need to communicate with our greater community. Reaching out to households and business who may not have students in our schools should be an intentional focus over the next few years.

Professional Development

What PD strategies will your district use to make sure staff know how to integrate new and existing technologies into their work?

Our district’s new staff orientation process has expanded over the years to include a full day of training on the expectations and use of technology in our district. This includes professional development in using the Skyward Employee Access system to track payroll, absence reporting, student record system and more. New employees also receive training covering the use of email, webpage development, calendaring, Google Docs and use of the Windows or Apple iOS platform.


Ongoing technology staff training, for both certificated and classified staff, occurs throughout the school year. This includes using time on early-release days for training of our classified staff and district TRI days to provide training for certificated staff members. These trainings are specifically geared toward integrating the technology we currently have into the daily instructional practices in the classroom. The Aberdeen School District hosts a Summer Institute (August) in partnership with Staff Development for Educators (SDE) that includes a number of technology related sessions to assist teachers with integration of the technology into their classroom. Our district provides clock hours (3 or more hours) for teachers and administrators that attend many of the trainings throughout the school year. We also support staff in attending the Northwest Council for Computers in Education (NCCE) conference each year. Alternating elementary and secondary teachers who attend this conference helps insure we are meeting the instructional needs at all levels throughout our district. This past year we supported two of our district technology staff members to become Dell Certified technicians. This is a tremendous boost to our district in terms of cost savings by being able to repair our devices, Dell Chromebooks and Dell laptops, which are used heavily throughout our district. Our district has two dedicated technology integration specialists on staff that work primarily with teachers in the classroom. One is located at Aberdeen High School and the other at Miller Junior High. We have several knowledgeable certified staff who are available as trainers in the district. When staff attend conferences, such as the NCCE Conference, we expect them to provide training for others in their building and/or grade level/content area. This builds a cadre of trained professionals who help each other integrate technology into the classroom in meaningful ways. Training also occurs from vendors who have been selected to provide the materials needed to meet the curriculum requirements of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). This


includes training in our new 6-12 ELA materials that were purchased for use in the 2016-17 school year. Finally, we provide ongoing training for IXL, Measures of Academic Progress (MAP), Learning.com, Skyward, and more to meet the “just-in-time” concept of learning. When changes in programming or major updates are released, we determine the best training options for our staff. This can be in small groups, large groups or one-on-one when needed. Our Director of Teaching and Learning provides the training facilities and funding support for many of our technology training sessions.

Needs Assessment/Infrastructure

Describe your district’s basic technology infrastructure, including telecommunications.

We have 8 school buildings along with a district administration building, maintenance building and Teaching and Learning-Technology training building. The Wide Area Network (WAN) connects all facilities with 1Gbps fiber. Weatherwax High School houses the main MDF for the District. There are three physical servers hosting 30+ virtual machines with a Dell EqualLogic attached storage. The MDF also houses a variety of other physical servers for applications and storage for the security camera system. The core networking and fiber also terminate in the MDF for the entire district. Our old district phone system was replaced with a new VoIP system that was installed during the summer of 2016. We have wireless access points that provide connectivity in almost every classroom and office space throughout the district. We will continue to upgrade our access points over the next 3 years to meet the demand from our 1:1 program. Moving to 10 Gbps connections between all buildings over the next 3-5 years is a possibility as we introduce new technologies requiring greater bandwidth.

Identify upgrades and acquisitions necessary to meet the district’s educational goals.

Aberdeen started our first 1:1 program for students in the 2011-2012 school year at Miller Junior High School. This took place with purchase and utilization of iPads for all 7th and 8th grade students, approximately 500 students and 39 certificated staff members.


Storage upgrades, virtual server and physical server upgrades, and several switches will need to be upgraded to meet the increased educational demands on our district network. The use of online video is one area where an increase in our bandwidth may be needed in the future. We have developed a long-range cost analysis and spreadsheet showing the necessary technology acquisitions over the next ten years. This document is attached as Appendix A in this Technology Plan. This is a replacement schedule for existing equipment and does not include the purchase of new technology over the next several years. We plan to expand our social media presence using a variety of online tools such as Twitter and Facebook. Implementation of these tools will be coordinated at the district level and supported at levels throughout the district. This will be a work in progress.

Identify the level of maintenance and tech support–current and proposed– necessary to meet the district’s educational goals.

Our district technology department is well organized and able to meet the needs of the district with the resources provided. Service time is very good and response to work tickets takes place within 48 hours for routine requests. We currently have a Director of Teaching and Learning who oversees the technology services for the district. Our current staffing model will continue to support our technology needs over the next three years. Given the challenges and uncertainty of the legislative funding model, this level of support meets the national guidelines for educational support (approximately 4 FTE for 3,500 students), but not the state suggested standard of 1.72 FTE per the Prototypical School/District Model. We currently have an RFP for WAN connections over the next 1-5 years. This will be another area we consistently review to find the best pricing for the school district while maintaining a strong, robust network for ongoing educational programming.

Evaluation Process

Describe the process your district uses to monitor progress toward your technology goals.

We have a number of areas that are used to monitor progress toward our district educational goals. Several areas within the technology department are listed below.

• Weekly department meetings


• Consultation one day a week with ESD support staff • 2 full-time instructional technology integration specialists • 2 full-time support Dell certified technicians • 1 full-time Student Information Support Specialist and CEDARS contact • 1 administrative assistant (.875 FTE)

Our district level staff also review and monitor progress toward the technology goals. These include the following.

• Technology and finance department meetings • Surveys for staff members on needs and goals • District-wide technology meetings, as needed • Having technology as part of the monthly school board report highlighting various

achievements and goal areas • Review of technology as part of the district Cabinet meetings • Instructional Leadership agenda items • District Leadership agenda items • District budgeting process for both technology staffing and various purchases • Overview of iGrants to see what needs and goals can be achieved with grant funds –

both state and federal • Application for funding support through private foundation grants

Describe the process you will use to make course corrections that respond to changes, opportunities and new developments as they arise.

Our district technology staff meet weekly to review both short-term and long-term plans. As we learn more about the instructional needs of our staff and develop a better understanding on how technology can support those needs, we will make the appropriate adjustments and course corrections. It is important to our staff that we provide access to technology services for every student in our district, regardless of home circumstances. Equity for our students is key to the overall success and growth of our community and we hold our schools accountable to achieve that equity through great teaching and the implementation of technology.


The ongoing consultation with ESD 113 staff representatives who bring insight from other districts and regions is another positive for responding to the needs and changes in technology. Meeting with industry representatives to respond to new technologies and advances in the field along with sending both technology and teaching staff to the NCCE Conference each year play an important role in staying current and learning about new developments in educational technology. Our staff subscribe and review a number of periodicals as part of their own professional development. We survey staff seeking input on their needs in the classroom.

ABERDEEN SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 5 Resolution 2017-01

A Resolution Requesting that the State Board of Education approve a waiver of four

days for Aberdeen High School and Miller Junior High School

WHEREAS, the Aberdeen School District is committed to the ongoing improvement of student learning;

WHEREAS, Aberdeen High School spent two years researching best practices in moving to a trimester student schedule;

WHEREAS, the high school and junior high school would like to reduce the number of early release days in the calendar to better meet the instructional goals of the district;

WHEREAS, moving from 10 early release days to six (6) full instructional days and four (4) full conference days will improve instructional time for many students;

WHEREAS, the student contact hours and programs in our CTE and Skills Center would be less impacted;

WHEREAS, the District will continue to meet the annual instructional hours required for the Basic Education Compliance Report; and

WHEREAS, the District has recognized the importance of communicating with parents and guardians in order to continually be engaged in the conversation of goal-setting, career opportunities, post high school options and the monitoring of student achievement;

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Aberdeen School District Board of Directors requests that the State Board of Education waive the 180-Day requirement for both Miller Junior High School and Aberdeen High School for four (4) days of parent-teacher-student conferences during the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 school years.

ADOPTED this 21st day of March, 2017, at a regular open public meeting of the Board of Directors.

THE WASHINGTON STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION A high-quality education system that prepares all students for college, career, and life.

Application for Waiver from the 180-Day School Year Requirement

for the Purpose of Parent-Teacher Conferences Under WAC 180-18-050, adopted by the State Board of Education (SBE) in November 2012, a district seeking a waiver of not more than five days, solely for the purpose of parent-teacher conferences, from the basic education requirement of a minimum 180-day school year shall provide notification of the request to SBE. Notification must be made at least 30 days prior to implementation of the waiver plan. It must include:

• An adopted resolution by the school district board of directors stating, at a minimum, the number of school days and school years for which the waiver is requested, and attesting that the district will meet the minimum instructional hours requirement of RCW 28A.150.220(2) under the waiver plan.

• Information and documentation as specified in WAC 180-18-050(3).

On a determination that all required information and documentation has been received, SBE will, within 30 days of receipt, notify the requesting district by letter that the requirements of the rule have been satisfied and the waiver has been granted. A district seeking to obtain a waiver of more than five days for the purpose of parent-teacher conferences must request the waiver through the regular Option One process under WAC 180-18-050(1) and (2). Waivers under this section may include those requested by districts operating state-funded, full-day Kindergarten that are required to implement the Washington Kindergarten Inventory of Developing Skills (WaKIDS) program under RCW 28A.655.080. Under RCW 28A.150.220(5), schools administering WaKIDS may use up to three school days at the beginning of the school year to meet with parents and families as required in the parent involvement component of the inventory, while counting those days toward the 180-day school year requirement. Any additional days to be used for implementation of WaKIDS require a waiver from the SBE. Completed application materials for a parent-teacher conference waiver must be submitted by e-mail no later than 30 days before implementation of the waiver plan to:

Parker Teed State Board of Education PO Box 47206 Olympia, Washington 98504 360-725-6047; Fax 360-586-2357 [email protected]

Applications must include all information and documentation as provided in WAC 180-18-1050(3) to be considered complete and for the waiver to be granted.

Page 2


7. Explain in detail how the parent-teacher conferences conducted under the waiver plan will be used

to improve student achievement. Our current practice involves a week in the fall and a week in the spring of five early release days each in order to meet the conference schedule. This proposal will eliminate the early-release days associated with conferences and move to two full days in October and two full days in January. By increasing the time in class for students, this will be less disruptive, which in turn will provide greater continuity in our educational programs leading to improvement in achievement. We are also starting our conference at noon and running into the evening. This will increase parent participation at the conferences. Parental involvement in their child’s education has been shown to improve student learning.

8. Explain the district’s reasons for electing to conduct parent-teacher conferences through full days rather than partial days. We have a number of reasons to move to full-day conferences at Aberdeen High School beginning with the 2017-18 school year. Aberdeen High School and Miller Junior High are moving to a trimester schedule. In moving to this format, we are looking at reducing classes that are taught on early-release days. The waiver request will work toward accomplishing this goal. We also believe we will increase participation at conferences by having two full days built into the school calendar. Starting at noon each day, this will provide families the opportunity to schedule conferences into the evening depending upon work schedules. At the high school level, the CTE programs and Twin Harbors Skills Center programs will both benefit from full day conferences. Students from surrounding districts attend the Skills Center classes that are held each afternoon.

9. State the number of partial days (half days, early releases, late starts) that will be reduced as a result of implementing the waiver plan.

By moving to 2 fall and 2 winter full-day conferences, we are reducing the number of early release days at the secondary level by 10 days. In our current format, we have a week of early release days in the fall and another week in the spring. These week long early release days would be replaced by the full-day conference days.

10. Describe how administrators, teachers, other school and district staff, and parents have

participated in the development of the waiver request. Currently, student conferences occur twice a year in our district. At the secondary level, the fall conferences are focused on goal setting; the spring conferences are student led. Each set of conferences results in five early release days for schools. Conferences are an important time to connect with families and valued by our district but challenges have existed. Through various forms of feedback over time, staff has shared that the lack of interpreters for our ELL families is a challenge in our existing conference format; parents have shared concerns in having excessive early

Page 3


release scheduled days resulting in family challenges, and teachers have been concerned with the instructional time being maximized on half days.

District and building administrators developed a new conferencing format for the 2017-18 school year to address some concerns solicited from various stakeholders. The new format results in the need for this waiver request at the secondary level. Administrators and staff have discussed various ways to reduce interruptions to instructional time, including early release days for conferences. The new plan has been shared with the teacher's union and department leaders who are in support of piloting this new format.

Mr. Chris Reykdal Superintendent of Public Instruction Old Capitol Building 600 Washington Street, S.E. Olympia, WA 98501

Dear Mr. Reykdal:

Pursuant to 392-129-140 of the Washington Administrative Code, the Aberdeen School District is requesting continuation of state funding due to the one-day emergency closure of Central Park Elementary School on Wednesday, March 15, 2017.

Wednesday morning, we were notified of a water main break that supplied water to Central Park School. This resulted in no water for drinking, handwashing, cooking or sanitation. I made the decision to close for the day until repairs could be made to the main line. Grays Harbor County completed the repairs late Wednesday afternoon and water flow was restored to the building. We are providing bottled water for staff and students until we receive clearance from the Grays Harbor Health Department that the county water is safe for drinking and cooking.

Thank you for your consideration of this request. Please feel free to contact me if you have additional questions or concerns at 360.538.2006.

SUPERINTENDENT'S CONTRACT

It is hereby agreed by and between the Board of Directors of the Aberdeen School District No. 5, Grays Harbor County, Washington (the "Board") and Alicia Henderson (the "Superintendent") that the Board, in accordance with its action at its meeting on the 10th day of March, 2017, hereby employs Alicia Henderson as Superintendent of the Aberdeen School District for the period commencing July 1, 2017, and ending June 30, 2020.

AGREEMENTS

1. In consideration of an annual salary of $163,000 the Superintendent agrees to faithfully perform the duties of the Superintendent of the Aberdeen School District as prescribed by the laws of the State of Washington and by the policies, rules, and regulations made thereunder by the Board. The annual salary shall be paid in equal monthly installments in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Board.

2. The Superintendent shall perform the duties of Superintendent of Schools of the District and Secretary of the Board as prescribed by the laws of the State of Washington, the rules and regulations of the State Board of Education and the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, Board policies and procedures, and the Code of Ethics of the State and National Associations of School Administrators.

3. The Superintendent may attend appropriate professional meetings at the local, state, and national level, after providing the Board chairperson proper notification. Reasonable expenses incurred as a result of said attendance shall be paid/reimbursed by the District according to established Board policies.

4. The Superintendent will have freedom to recommend to the Board the organization, reorganization, and arrangement of the administrative and supervisory staff of the District in the manner which, in her judgment, best serves the interests of education and the District. The Superintendent shall be responsible for the administration of instruction and the business affairs of the District with the assistance of the staff. It is the responsibility of the Superintendent to recommend to the Board of Directors the selection, placement, and transfer of all personnel within the District in accordance with State law and the policies and procedures adopted by the Board. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall authorize the Superintendent to perform any act, which under the laws of the State of Washington, cannot be delegated by the Board to the Superintendent.

5. The Board shall provide the Superintendent with periodic opportunities to discuss Superintendent-Board relationships. The Board shall evaluate and assess in writing the performance of the Superintendent at least once a year on or before June 30 of each year of this contract.

-1-

Superintendent Contract July 2017 – June 2020

6. Following evaluation of the Superintendent's performance, the Board shall determine whether the Superintendent's contract shall be extended for one (1) year beyond its then existing termination date. If the Board determines to extend the contract, the parties shall execute a written document identifying the new termination date of the contract. The Superintendent shall notify the Board not later than January 20th of her intent to retire at the conclusion of that contract year.

7. The District hereby retains the right to increase the annual salary of the Superintendent. In subsequent contract years, the Superintendent's salary shall be increased by any State-funded cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) afforded to nonsupervisory certificated staff in the District. Any such increase granted shall be subject to the limitations of law pertaining thereto. Any adjustment in the salary made during the life of this contract shall be in the form of an amendment and shall become a part of this contract, but it shall not be deemed that the District and Superintendent have entered into a new contract nor that the termination date of the existing contract has been extended as a result of any such amendment.

8. In addition to annual salary, the Superintendent shall receive the following in consideration for the performance of duties as the Superintendent of the District.

A. The Superintendent shall supply her own vehicle for District business. The annual salary described in paragraph one shall be augmented in an amount equal to five hundred dollars ($500.00) each month in lieu of other expense reimbursement for in-District travel. (Pursuant to RCW 42.24.090, it is the determination of the Board that this means of reimbursement is less costly than providing an automobile to the Superintendent.) The Superintendent will also be entitled to out-of-District mileage and other expense reimbursement for official business as provided by law and District policy for administrators.

B. Twelve (12) days sick leave with compensation for illness, injury, and emergencies to accumulate as provided by law with unused leave treated in the manner prescribed by law and District policy.

C. The Superintendent shall be afforded medical, dental, long-term disability, term life insurance and other benefits commensurate with that provided other full-time administrative personnel.

D. Holidays recognized by the District.

E. The Superintendent's contract consists of 260 days, which is inclusive of 11 paid holidays. The Superintendent shall earn thirty (30) days of paid vacation per year, to be used upon prior notification to the Board. Unused vacation shall accumulate to a maximum of sixty (60) days. Such accumulated vacation may be taken in a subsequent year, provided that no more than six (6) weeks of continuous vacation will be permitted

-2- 01484-0270/134724543.1


regardless of accumulation. Up to ten (10) days of unused vacation as of June 30 of any calendar year shall be compensable on the July pay warrant. To the extent consistent with law and without causing the District any financial penalty or pension chargeback, unused vacation will be compensable upon termination of employment at the then applicable salary rate (1/224 per day) to a maximum of thirty (30) days.

F. The Superintendent is expected to participate in civic and business affairs of the community including the Chamber of Commerce and local service clubs. Membership in a service club and attendance at various community events shall be integral to the Superintendent's duties, and the District shall pay dues and other costs associated with participation in such activities in accordance with Board-approved guidelines and procedures. Dues to maintain active membership in the professional organizations of Washington Association of School Administrators and the American Association of School Administrators shall be paid by the District.

G. The Board reserves the right to require the Superintendent to submit to a medical examination when the Board deems the Superintendent disabled. The physician shall be selected and paid by the Board. If the Superintendent is certified to be disabled such that she cannot perform her duties, the Board may terminate this contract, whereupon any further obligations of the Board shall cease, except that the Superintendent shall be allowed to use any accumulated leave in the manner prescribed by law and District policy. In the event of termination due to extended absence or disability, any further obligations of the Board under this contract shall thereupon cease, provided that, in the event of termination due to disability, the Board will reassign the Superintendent to inactive administrative status for the period of the Superintendent's accumulated disability leave.

9. The Superintendent agrees to reside in the District. The District shall reimburse the Superintendent the documented costs for moving expenses associated with relocating her residence within the boundaries of the District up to a maximum of $5,000. The Superintendent will present an itemized statement, with copies of receipts, when seeking reimbursement for moving expenses.

10. The Superintendent agrees to devote her time, energies and skills to the services of the District and the promotion of its interest and shall not accept any other employment or engage in any outside enterprise, unless by mutual agreement. Any consulting activities must take place during approved leave days.

11. The District shall defend and hold harmless the Superintendent from any claim, action or legal proceeding arising out of the Superintendent's performance or failure of performance of duties for, or employment with, the District, provided that the Superintendent was acting in good faith and with the scope of her employment and in compliance with the policies and procedures of the District.

-3- 01484-0270/134724543.1


Where the District so defends, it will indemnify the Superintendent against any resulting judgment or settlement payment. The District's obligations under this paragraph are limited to civil claims and litigation, shall not apply to action by the District relating to the Superintendent's employment status, and are only effective to the extent that they are within the authority of the District under the laws of the State of Washington.

By signing the foregoing contract, Alicia Henderson and the Board of Directors of this District named herein, agree to its terms.

ACCEPTED this 21st day of March, 2017:
