Board approves small-sum grants and staff training approvals
Summary
The board authorized applying for a $2,900 NJSIG safety grant and a $1,680 FOCUS competitive grant, and approved Orton-Gillingham training for three staff members at $1,750 each as part of education items passed on consent.
The Alexandria Township Board of Education approved submission of a $2,900 safety grant application to the New Jersey Schools Insurance Group (NJSIG) and a $1,680 competitive application for the Funding for Optimal Comprehensive Universal Screeners (FOCUS) program.
The board also approved Orton-Gillingham training for three staff members — Lisa MacKinnon, Kelly Haszko and Garth Ferrante — at an updated cost of $1,750 each. Those training approvals and grant-submission items were included in the consent agenda passed by a unanimous roll-call vote.
The NJSIG safety grant application identifies the purpose as completing risk-reduction projects to improve safety; the agenda authorizes the Business Administrator to take necessary actions to apply for and receive the award. The FOCUS grant application is listed as competitive and specifies the requested amount on the agenda.
