Board approves $1.18 million SIA grant agreement for 2025–27 biennium
Summary
Board approved the 2025–27 Student Investment Account (SIA) grant agreement totaling $1,183,861 (reduced by approximately $156,000 due to projected tax changes); funds will support CTE staffing, a portion of an EL teacher, behavior support, dean of students, website and collaborative data days.
The board approved the 2025–27 Student Investment Account (SIA) grant agreement after discussion earlier in the meeting. The presenter said the district’s SIA award for the 2025–27 biennium is about $1,183,861 but had been reduced by roughly $156,000 because of projected tax impacts cited in the meeting. "we are getting about $1.1 million. It's $1,183,861," the presenter said.
She explained the district had already begun spending SIA dollars and that those funds are being used for targeted items rather than general fund expenses: partial EL teacher funding, portions of CTE positions and benefits, an elementary behavior support specialist, the dean of students salary and benefits, database or data-day time for teacher collaboration, website work and ESD tech support. The presenter said the cuts were mainly to supplies and one collaborative day. The motion to approve the SIA grant agreement was moved, seconded and approved during the action agenda.
No roll-call vote tally was provided in the transcript.
