Overview • New requirement for Sustainability Plan documents to be attached to Term 1 or Term 2 Reports • Review last year’s power point and guidance on completing reports on the April 11, 2013 webinar: S3 website- www.michigan.gov/schoolclimate • Guidance for the application will be emailed and posted on the school climate page
Overview The Term 1 Report consists of two parts: • Part 1: Grant and CSHP Evaluation Indicators • Part 2: Year 3 Term 1 Work Plan Progress Report and Evaluation • Time Period Covered: October 1, 2013-June 30, 2014 • Due: July 31, 2014
Overall points to remember • MDE will be checking status of MiPHY surveying for the 2013-14 school year. Continuation funding is contingent on yearly MiPHY surveying and reporting bullying incident data. • The Year 3 Term 1 Report, Year 3 Term 2 Final Report, and Year 4 Continuation Application are all separate. Each report has different due dates and has different submission requirements. Please refer to the S3 Reporting and Meeting dates documents for official dates.
Overall points to remember • A Final Expenditure Report (related to your entire Year 3 budget) is required at the end of Year 3 (November 29, 2014). • For every intervention you intend to seek funding for in your Year 4 application, you must upload as an attachment a completed 2013-14 Sustainability Plan. Only those interventions supported by a completed 2013-14 Sustainability Plan will be considered for funding in Year 4.
Directions for uploading Sustainability Plan into your report • At the Attachments section in MEGS+ add your sustainability plan documents • Make sure to title each attachment by intervention. Example: “Bully-Free Schools”
Year 4 Continuation Grant Application • Important Dates: • Funding cycle is October 1, 2014 – June 12, 2015 • Grant application is due on August 22, 2014 • Final Report is due June 12, 2015 • FER is due August 11, 2015
Year 4 minimum grant requirements for fundingAs a requirement of funding, each funded S3 school will: • Designate, at minimum, a .5 FTE staff member (called the S3 Building Liaison) to represent each grant funded school building. • Work directly and meet regularly with the assigned regional coach via the designated staff member/building liaison to fulfill grant requirements. • Implement the Michigan Profile for Healthy Youth (MiPHY) student survey during the 2014-15 school-year. • Implement the Michigan School Climate Assessment Instrument (MiSCAI) during the 2014-15 school-year.
Collect and report the number of incidents of student bullying that have occurred on school property or at a school-sponsored activity during the 2014-15 school year for your S3 Funded building. • Send a team to the S3 Crucial Conversations Training/Conference in October • Building Liaisons attend MDE-sponsored Building Liaison meetings two times per year, winter and spring.
Develop an action plan based on the approved workplan (goals and activities) that includes strategies to be implemented to achieve a systemic change within the building. This action plan must be submitted by November 4, 2014. • A Coordinated School Health (CSH) representative continues to participate on the School Improvement Team.
