    Increase social-emotional, mental and behavioral support across the district.
    Establish more optimal staff-student ratios and class size across many grade levels.
    Provide more access and expansion of elective courses, co-curricular activities and extended learning time opportunities.
    Provide instructional coaching and targeted professional development for staff and additional curriculum materials to enhance core instruction and reading and math interventions.

    The Oregon Legislature passed and the Governor signed the $2 billion Student Success Act (HB 3427) in Spring 2019. This is an historic and much needed investment in K-12 schools.   The Centennial School District could be able to access an estimated $5.5 million per year through a state application process.

    School districts are required to apply for funds, and must engage their community in a needs assessment prior to the application for funds. We will host a series of Community Conversations – Speak Up 4 Student Success in several locations throughout CSD. Schools will also be conducting community surveys during parent conferences.

    The money will serve two purposes:

    Meet students’ mental and behavioral health needs.
    Increase academic achievement and reduce academic disparities for:
    Students of color;
    Students with disabilities;
    Students navigating poverty, homelessness, and foster care; and other students that have historically experienced disparities in Oregon Schools.

     

    Here is how the process works:
