Board reviews late TSSA submissions from SkyView, Green Canyon and Spring Creek

District staff told the board on Aug. 7 that three TSSA plans were submitted late this year and summarized their focus areas. Nut Graf: The late submissions reflect internal staffing changes at the district office; principals sought extra time to ensure their plans were substantive. The district reported that SkyView's late plan emphasized academic, social-emotional and PBIS work and added ELL supports through its Bobcat Academy; Green Canyon focused mainly on class-size reduction with some PBIS supports and supplies; and Spring Creek's plan targeted RISE testing needs and PBIS supports. Staff said principals had workable reasons for late submission and noted a recurring rounding issue in the budgeting software that sometimes leaves budget totals off by $1, which principals typically correct before state submission. Board members discussed the $1 rounding discrepancy and the importance of timely state submission; staff said the small corrections are common and are handled administratively. Ending: Board members were asked to read the TSSA plans and be prepared to approve them at the next meeting; board members were encouraged to email principals if they have concerns.
