3. Principal Report
Updated information indicates that the funds available through Albion TSSP are about double of what had been anticipated. Discussion was held as to how this money could best be used. Ideas included: hiring another intervention aide, paying for field trip buses and funding additional days to hire substitutes so teachers can attend professional trainings, visit schools implementing unique programs, purchase additional materials, obtain micro-credentials, earn ELL endorsements etc.
- It’s desirable to provide options of extension learning for students in the area formerly called Gifted and Talented. Funds could be used to train teachers and purchase enrichment materials for these programs.
- A straw poll was taken of the Albion SCC members, there was unanimous support for expenditures in these areas.
- Hart distributed Albion’s Math and Reading Inventory, Fall 2022-2023 Baseline Data to SCC members.

- Parents are welcome to attend Parent-Teacher conferences next week to develop a partnership for the success of their student at Albion.
