This Commissioner's District MOU process has been in place in the WPS for three years. In the past, the Dept SUpt, and Federal Programs Manager worked with DESE staff to get the MOU executed.
Limited funding for Focus on Results? For the previous two years the tab approached 400,000 a year. Some of it was paid for by the district's Title I budget, some paid for by the DESE using the District's Title I School Improvement funds. Almost 800,000 in two years, plus this year's funding, is a little more than "limited".
