At one time, there was a <br />fifth true-up payment as she described, but now there are only four quarterly <br />payments which are based exclusively on the costs from the preceding fiscal <br />year. This means that the projected revenue from the Circuit Breaker might <br />have to be revised downwards. The good news, however, is that because <br />Circuit Breaker reimbursement is available for both in-district and out-of- <br />district expenses incurred, Ms. Dunn believes it may be possible to increase <br />our Circuit Breaker reimbursement with better training of staff and more <br />complete reporting of our in-district special education expenses. <br /> <br />?? <br />A few days after the upcoming summit meeting, the School Committee will <br />vote its bottom line budget, and will then begin discussions about what to put <br />on an at-risk list. This list should be finished by the end of March. The <br />override structure will be debated at the School Committee meeting on March <br />15. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 9:55 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />John Bartenstein <br />Eric Michelson <br /> <br /> <br />Approved March 8, 2007 <br /> <br /> - 3 - <br />
