�4 <br />r ru <br />Initiative: Local At -Risk Funds <br />Implementation Timeline and Budget Needed <br />2015 -2016 Amount Notes <br />Reduce local at -risk funding budget ($100,004) <br />Expected Results <br />Schools are allocated instructional dollars from accounts such as state and local at -risk funds, as well as state <br />and local instructional supplies and materials. Local at -risk funds are used by schools to provide services to <br />students who are most at -risk of dropping out of school. This reduction may result in a smaller allocation of local <br />at -risk funds to schools which could cause a reduction in services and resources provided to students. <br />Evidence or Reasoning for this Recommendation <br />This recommendation is being made because re- purposing of funds from other sources could lessen the impact <br />of the reduction on school allotments. State at -risk funds could be re- purposed to make up for some of the <br />shortfall at the school level. Additionally, schools could repurpose their funds from other sources to best meet <br />the needs of their students. <br />Contact Person: Dr. Jake Henry, Chief Academic Officer <br />27 <br />
