NEW WEBINAR FEATURING LOCAL LEGAL EAGLES
THIS CAN'T MISS PROGRAM, ED LAW 2022 - from COVID to Contracts, is a two part series presented by a panel of local school district attorneys. With an eye on the post pandemic era, this webinar will look at textbooks, vaccinations, candidate selection committees, contracts, and so much more. The workshop will not be recorded, so clear your calendars for March 24th and 31st, 9 - 11:30 am (register through your District Clerk).
SCHOOL BUILDING PROJECTS ARE EXPECTED TO TAKE YEARS
WHAT DOES YOUR DISTRICT PLAN TO DO with their federal COVID relief funds? Take note: this money has an expiration date and expenditures need to meet the requirement that they are responsive to COVID, in order to tip the scales in favor of approval. And considering all the constraints placed on federal payouts, there is evidence that a facilities upgrade may be a prudent use of these resources.
