State sources have decreased due to the Commonwealth’s elimination of the General Operating Subsidy to Intermediate Unit’s across the state. School districts are not being asked to supplement this loss in funding. The Bucks County Intermediate Unit has absorbed the costs by making personnel changes and by looking for alternative revenue sources. Allocation of revenues from corporate sponsorships, commercial partnerships, non-public schools, special grants, collaborative agreements with ‘Higher Education’ to share tuition revenues, and direct user fees for non-profit institutions are projected to maintain or exceed their current levels. We will continue the surcharge fees to 'out of county’ participants at workshops and conferences. We will continue to look for ways to provide contracted services to non-profit agencies and providers in order to generate revenue that is reflected in the use of fund balance. Expenditures - Decrease of $68,272 or 3.70% Budget Notes: Instructional Technology Services will continue to provide support and training for classroom and distance learning initiatives. We will maintain instructional resources, including video-on-demand solutions and the professional library, to support districts in providing standards-based instruction. We will maintain the allocation for curriculum and/or staff development to support district initiatives in meeting the requirements of Chapter 4 Regulations, No Child Left Behind, and Acts 45 and 48. This budget reflects an overall 9.35% decrease in salaries. 5 BUCKS COUNTY INTERMEDIATE UNIT #22 PROGRAMS AND SERVICES DIVISION BUDGET 2012-2013 PROGRAMS & SERVICES DIVISION OVERVIEW It is the mission of the Programs & Services Division to provide direct professional and technical assistance to the schools of Bucks County.

    March 19, 2020 The Honorable Maria Collett Pennsylvania Senate 183 Main Capitol Building Harrisburg, PA 17120 Dear Senator Collett: As the Executive Director of the Bucks County Intermediate Unit (Bucks IU), and the Superintendents of the thirteen public school districts in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, we are jointly writing to you to urgently and respectfully request your immediate support and championship of legislation to enact emergency legislation in an effort to help our schools deal with the effect of the coronavirus. As we work through the impact that COVID-19 has had on our students and communities, we urgently need state-level policy in order to properly plan for our next steps, in what will likely be a long battle against the virus. Clearly, this situation is unprecedented and, as we all share the goal of providing for the health, safety, and well-being of Bucks County school students, we hope you will act immediately to pass legislation providing the consistent statewide policy we need in order to continue to do our jobs, protect our employees, and serve our students. These changes include: • Eliminate the 180-day requirement for all public and nonpublic schools and home education programs. • Allow the Secretary of Education to accept applications for Flexible Instructional Days (FIDs) from school entities that may not have previously applied for such days and also increase the number of allowable FIDS in order to permit additional educational opportunities for our students while they are confined at home. • Ensure that all state funding, including school subsidies and reimbursements that otherwise were expected to be received by intermediate units and school districts for the 2019-2020 school year, are still received, without penalty.

We greatly appreciate the positive and professional attitude displayed by school staff and administration.

Graciousness, openness, and hospitality were evident throughout the three-day visit, making our jobs much easier and allowing us to collect useful information. While conducting more than 150 individual and group interviews and classroom observations in every school in the district, the team collected information in a variety of areas and provided detailed answers to specific questions, along with overall program strengths, needs, and recommendations. Team members identified program needs and made practical recommendations by applying their experience in the field to the on-site data collected, realizing that local conditions will determine local action. Team members were pleased to have been a key part of this program improvement process.

The legislation sets a precedent for expansion to at least thirteen other school districts and sets the stage for the eventual rollout of an expensive statewide voucher prog ram. We understand that the House Education Committee is scheduled to take up this bill as early as Monday, November 18, 2019. Furthermore, once that bill is reported out of the House Education Committee, it is expected to be pushed out to the House floor. As our representatives in Harrisburg, we are writing to you to ask that you oppose this legislation. We have several reasons for our collective opposition which are as follows: Vouchers are taxpayer-funded government subsidies for nonpublic schools: . Vouchers divert attention, commitment and dollars from public schools to pay private school tuition for a few students, including many who already are in private school. Taxpayers simply cannot afford to fund both public and private school systems. Vouchers do nothing to improve the education of all students: . Creating a separate education system does nothing to address inadequacies or issues with the existing public-school system.
