Board approved a memorandum of understanding to pilot a Title I-funded extended day program at Old Orchard, setting an hourly pay rate of $50 for participating teachers for an eight-week literacy and math program.

The board approved an MOU establishing pay and program parameters for a Title I-funded extended-day pilot at Old Orchard. Staff explained the MOU sets a $50-per-hour compensation rate for teachers providing three days per week of one-hour sessions after school for an approximately eight-week pilot focusing on literacy and math for sixth through eighth grades.

"It would be $50 an hour," the presenter said when describing the proposed hourly rate and the district said the pilot will involve roughly five teachers and that evaluation would occur after eight weeks, with further growth dependent on grant funding and demonstrated efficacy measured by iReady and teacher/student feedback. The board agreed to revisit outcomes in June.
