November Board of Ed: FY21 budget

And the members are referencing a memo that is not available online...
Hills: priorities are those of the Commissioner
Bell: no funding as yet for Kaleidiscope initiative
Student Opportunity Act
three areas that are being watched:
increased responsibility for the Department to oversee district plans around improved performance
discussion around assessment, particularly around civics and social studies
literacy work for early grade readers

arts framework
upcoming health frameworks
both will need professional development funding

West: no funding for Kaleidscope
looking for state, looking for philanthropy
some could be through targeted support

Morton: when do we expect something on the Student Opportunity Act?
Peyser: "I was checking my phone to see if there was any news"
"it probably needs to be reported out of conference committee today" so they can pass it in formal session
