From Kimberly Branham and Mary Kay Longacre

RE 1003(g) renewal explanation for Item 2

Our sustainability plan for moving forward beyond 2017-18 1003g funding is based on

our school need for a continued network and corporate agreement with EL Education

This funding would be through Goshen Community Schools or potentially through

other funding yet would not be necessary to continue our sustainability plans for

several years to come The principal is working continually and collaboratively with

EL Education on sustainability plans Including long range plans both in the form of a

work plan credentialing plan and financial plan with a scope and sequence for

multiple years

Beyond the 17-18 school year Chamberlain will have the internal capacity to sustain

the EL Education Model for learning and the 3 components of student achievement

based on the structures and professional development in the 1003g grant years Next

year the focus of the Instructional Guide position will be to revise the Leaming

Expeditions and to build the differentiation for the ELL Students this will be gradually

released to other personnel in the coming years Supplies and materials will be obtained

via other sources that the school and district have discussed Additional funding

potential would be from other grants partnerships with local corporations or potential

funding via EL Education Grant Department Further details of this plan can be

articulated by Kimberly Branham
