Summary

Board members asked why MSCR was not highlighted in the presentation and urged analysis of how MSCR provides inclusive programming and how district summer pay is set; staff said MSCR supports afternoon site programming and teachers make $40/hr in summer morning sessions.

Multiple board members asked staff to explain how district summer offerings fit with MSCR and whether the district is unintentionally duplicating services. A board member told the meeting, "MSCR provides summer programming for hundreds and hundreds of kids," and asked that the district show how it works with MSCR and how pay and staffing compare for inclusive models.

Assistant Superintendent Green said MSCR supports many elementary and middle sites, offers afternoon enrichment, and is part of the summer ecosystem. The district confirmed certified teachers receive $40 per hour for summer instruction; support staff rates differ. Board members asked staff to provide a memo comparing MSCR's inclusive staffing and pay practices and how the district might adopt lessons for scaling inclusive summer services.
