- Increase family engagement and support of academic growth through parent education.
- Extra funds contingency
- In the event that we are unable to use funds as we have proposed we would purchase learning software/apps (such as math iReady), additional PBIS incentives, supplies to support student wellness, and/or instructional materials.
