Blueprint offers $25,000 gift to pay for Move This World SEL curriculum for elementary grades
Summary
Lancaster ISD staff asked trustees to accept a $25,000 restricted donation from Blueprint to fund Move This World SEL curriculum for pre‑K through fourth grade; district presenters said the total program cost is $40,762.50 and the rest would be covered in kind so the district would incur no net cost.
At the Dec. 3 work session, Dr. Matthews presented a proposed acceptance of a $25,000 restricted donation from Blueprint to cover the Move This World social‑emotional learning (SEL) curriculum for pre‑K through fourth grade.
Dr. Matthews said the district has used Move This World for six years and that the curriculum is teacher‑led, provides instructional videos and tracks classroom usage. He told trustees that the total cost for the subscription for the stated grades is $40,762.50; Blueprint will provide $25,000 and Move This World will provide an in‑kind contribution of $15,762.50, leaving the district with no out‑of‑pocket cost for the subscription as described.
Trustees asked how effectiveness would be measured; Dr. Matthews said the platform tracks usage minutes and lesson access and can show repeat use on lessons tied to student needs. He said staff will include the donation acceptance on the regular meeting agenda for formal approval.
What’s next: the board will consider formal acceptance of the restricted donation at the next regular board meeting.
