Board approves Local Service Plan to continue ESD‑provided special‑education and technical services
Summary
The board approved the Local Service Plan (LSP), which funds regional special‑education, nursing, speech/language and technology-coordination services provided through the ESD; staff said these contracted services are essential for small districts.
The board voted to approve the Local Service Plan that authorizes continued participation in ESD‑provided services, including special education coaching, speech‑language pathology, school psychology, nursing, technology support and crisis‑response coordination.
The superintendent explained the LSP covers positions and services the district could not easily fund on its own, and recommended approval. During discussion trustees emphasized that the ESD provides critical technical assistance and crisis‑response support and that the district contributes a small percentage of the ESD budget based on enrollment. The motion to approve the LSP was made, seconded and carried by voice vote.
Board direction included continuing participation and monitoring the services to ensure they meet district needs.
