ARP/ESSER Continuity of Services

The ARP/ESSER III plan posted on 7/20/22 has not been revised but has been reposted after our 10-13-22 meeting. We discussed possible future revisions, however there were no revisions to the plan at the meeting. 

The revised ARP/ESSER III plan posted on 7/20/22 was created to reflect the increased allocation for FY 22 over FY 21. This increase in allocation was overlooked and will be reviewed at our next committee meeting. It has been added as a TBD row at the bottom of the current revised plan. The 20% reqirement was already being met with the approved plan from May. 

The plan was revised on 1/11/23 to add a used bus to the plan. The $25,698.05 of 82,500 was pulled from Supporting Educator and Staff Stability. The remainder of $82,500 was pulled from Creating Safe and Healthy Learning Environment under COVID Support. It was reduced from $210,000 to $108,198.06.

The plan was revised on 2/22/23 to accommodate for an additional 836,000 in AC project costs, as well as, additional costs adjustment for adding the state approved Curriculum Audit for $45,000. This was a total adjustment of $881,000 in adjustments within the plan. We discussed the continuity of learning plan and that it is on the website but that we are just following any health department guidelines in regards to COVID.

Continuity of Service (Ready for Learning)/ESSER ARP (April 15th Update)

ESSER ARP Update

The plan was revised on 3/29/23 to accommodate for an additional roof project costs, as well as, additional costs adjustment for adding loss of learning time during Elementary RTI, Middle School Essential Skills, and High School Upgrade. Review the plan below to see the total adjustments.

Continuity of Services (Ready for Learning)

We discussed the continuity of learning plan and that it is on the website but that we are just following any health department guidelines in regards to COVID.

The plan was revised on 7/3/23 adjusting the HVAC according to the approved project cost. HVAC came in at 1,636,000 which left a remaining 200,000 which is being moved to Roof Project. The incentive pay was also reduced by 116,185.45 due to some of the pay for year two being paid from ESSER II funds. These changes allowed 696,355.09 to be the new budgeted amount for the Roof Project.

The plan will be reviewed 9/14/23 and has been adjusted according to the changes in teaching and learning at Lamar this school year. The plan can be seen below. We will continue to revise the plans as we meet quarterly as needed. Our next meeting will be 11/16/23. We discussed upcoming changes to the ESSER ARP plan that will be updated by the end of the month and added to the website. 

10/12/23 (Proposed)

We had to move nurses, transportation, and food from the summer school section to individual sections at the top of the plan due to programming codes dealing with the loss of learning. We reduced the Incentive pay but added indirect cost in the same section. There was also adjustments within the loss of learning section to add funding for HQIM and Curriculum Specialist. This should be the  last major changes and the next changes will be to adjust due to project spending and change orders (HVAC/Roof) 10/12/23

(Presented for State Approval 12/20/23)

The plan was revised on 12/20/23 to adjust to provide additional loss of learning funds for PLCs and Professional Growth. $50,520 was moved from the Roof Project over to PLC/Professional Growth. We predict to move money from the HVAC Project over to the Roof Project in March or April. The professional growth justification was approved in late November. The plan is currently waiting State approval.
