Perkiomen Valley sets ESY location and dates; personnel to be brought forward to board
Summary
District staff announced the Extended School Year (ESY) program will run half days at South Elementary beginning July 1 and that personnel assignments will be presented to the board in February or March; ESY eligibility requires an IEP, as noted by presenters.
District staff provided an update on the Perkiomen Valley School District’s Extended School Year (ESY) program for students with disabilities.
Administrators said ESY will be held at South Elementary, operate as half-day sessions starting July 1, and serve students determined eligible through Individualized Education Program (IEP) teams. Staff emphasized the program’s purpose: maintenance of skills for students with identified ESY needs.
Administrators said they will bring personnel assignments for ESY staff to the board in an upcoming personnel packet (anticipated in February–March) so board approval of personnel can proceed in time for the summer program. No specific personnel names or head counts were provided during the committee presentation.
The presenters reiterated that ESY is required by federal law for students whose IEP teams determine ESY services are necessary to maintain skills; the district will deliver the program at the stated dates and site and expects to present staffing recommendations to the board for approval in the regular personnel process.
No formal motions were recorded in the committee meeting; ESY logistics and personnel planning will follow standard district procedures.
