10 <br /> <br /> <br />Superintendents Budget Request - chart <br /> <br />Commissioner Greene referred to the Director of Literacy position, and clarified that this <br />position existed previously, went away, and is now being requested again. She asked if this is <br />one person for the whole district, how does this person accomplish their work, and what <br />difference has been seen in OCS without the existence of this position. <br />Superintendent Felder said she does not know how the position was leveraged in <br />Orange County, but it has been leveraged in other districts in which she has worked. She said <br />with the current data in OCS, someone with expertise and focus in literacy is needed to build a <br />capacity of school based literacy leaders throughout the district. She said OCS has two literacy <br />facilitators, but as shown in the data, this has to be OCS’ focus, in order to find the reasons <br />behind the existence of this data. <br />COVID-19 Student Education Support 250,000 31 <br />Inclement Weather Days 150,000 18 <br />Teacher Assistant Workdays 82,500 10 <br />School Counselors (2) 138,000 17 <br />Academically/Intellectually Gifted teachers 160,000 20 <br />PreK Dual Language 40,000 5 <br />Translator 80,000 10 <br />Social Emotional Coordinator 74,100 9 <br />Directory of Literacy 105,500 13 <br />Equity Facilitators 142,000 17 <br />Maintenance Technicians 192,000 24 <br />Total Expansion Budget 1,414,100 173 <br />Total Per Pupil increase $321
