  • Bellevue High School WIAA Investigation
    Bellevue High School WIAA Investigation 1 WIAA Report – issues It is not the responsibility of BHS coaches to monitor players’ addresses. No WIAA rule requires coaches to investigate the validity of players’ addresses. o That responsibility lies appropriately with the district. Yet, the report misplaces blame and assumes BHS football coaches be held accountable for address verification No Bellevue School District Coach employed to coach, men or women, sports o have been asked or are required to validate addresses It is the best interest of the district, high school administration and coaches that o District Officials remain responsible for student admittance and eligibility Why would the WIAA assume it is football coaches responsibility to verify o addresses, if a student was enrolled and deemed eligible in a varsity sport prior to playing varsity football A student is not a transfer into BHS, if they have attended middle school within o BSD boundary or enrolled prior to grade 9 2 WIAA Report – issues All BHS coaches have been compensated within the WIAA’s rules. o The report acknowledges payments to coaches to be “technically correct” under the WIAA’s rules, yet it goes out of its way to show cumulative payments over a 10-year span to make the report appear more inflammatory. o The report is selective in its language and deliberately distorts the WIAA rule regarding coaches’ payments. The rule states: “Coaching stipends and all gifts to a coach exceeding a total of $500 in a season must be approved by the school’s board of directors.” o The report omits this important “in a season” distinction covered by WIAA Rule 23.1.1, which allows payments to be made to coaches outside of the season, and for duties other than high school coaching.

  • Northshore School District Uses a “Needs Based Resource Allocation” Model for Its Budgeting Work
    Budget and Financial Plan 2020-2021 Fiscal Year Serving the communities of Bothell, Kenmore and Woodinville Equality Equity The Northshore School District uses a “Needs Based Resource Allocation” model for its budgeting work. Ideally this approach aspires to assure that the needs of children in the District are provided for by the District in an equitable way, based on need. The illustration above captures the spirit of this approach. In order to create the most benefit for the most children, their current circumstances should be taken into account. Then, based on need, resources are allocated to respond to those circumstances in a way that enables as much progress for as many children as possible. This approach is founded in our Strategic Plan. www.nsd.org/budget Northshore School District 2020-2021 Financial Plan Table of Contents District Leadership and Finance Advisory Committee .................................................................................. 5 Message from the Superintendent ............................................................................................................... 6 Budget Highlights .......................................................................................................................................... 9 Northshore School District - Strategic Plan ................................................................................................ 12 Four Building Blocks ...........................................................................................................................
