Board accepts integrated (SIA) program report; staff highlight reporting burden for small districts

Dufur School District 29 Board of Directors · January 8, 2025

Summary

Board reviewed and accepted the district’s integrated SIA annual report, which staff said shows progress on data teams and attendance but also imposes heavy paperwork burdens on a small district with limited staff.

Staff presented the district’s integrated SIA (State Integrated) annual report and the board accepted it by motion after discussion about progress and reporting workload.

Kristen, the principal, summarized program progress — establishment of weekly data teams, attention to chronic absenteeism and improvements in family engagement — but she also flagged capacity challenges for small districts: “we have had to prioritize paperwork over student support at times,” she said, describing a limited staff wearing “many hats” to meet reporting demands.

Board members acknowledged the district’s efforts and agreed to present the SIA report as complete. Several members questioned whether state reporting systems and reapplication cycles create disproportionate work for small districts; staff said the district will continue applying and reporting but is concerned about ongoing administrative burden.
