Board approves consolidated federal funding application for Title programs and IDEA
Summary
The Lake County Schools board approved a consolidated funding application that packages Title I/II and IDEA funds to support ESL, services for homeless/foster/migrant students, interventionists, and technology; staff explained the application must now be recorded in the minutes.
The Lake County Schools Board voted June 8 to approve the district’s consolidated federal funding application, which combines Title I/II and IDEA funds and requires board approval and a record in the minutes.
Lee (staff) explained that the consolidated application governs federal funds used for services including ESL instruction, support for homeless and foster students, parent and family engagement, instructional coaches, interventionists and technology investments. The board emphasized it must follow federal guidelines and document approval in the minutes; a roll call recorded the motion as approved.
Board members said the application preserves funding for targeted student supports in a high‑poverty district and ensures compliance with federal stipulations attached to each fund source.
Next steps: staff will submit the approved application and proceed under the conditions and reporting requirements tied to each federal program.
