  • School Cluster List
    APPENDIX G: SCHOOL CLUSTERS Providers may use the updated grid, along with public and charter school enrollment numbers and prior average utilization of behavioral health services, to estimate number and types of staff needed to adequately meet the needs of children in their clusters of interest. School enrollment information can be found at the School District of Philadelphia website here. Based on prior year utilization of behavioral health services, providers may calculate 2-7% of the total enrollment as an estimate of the number of children participating in behavioral health treatment. Providers may apply the 2% to “Model” schools, 4% to “Reinforce” schools, and 7% to “Watch” and “Intervene” schools. Please note that prior utilization is not a guarantee of future utilization.

  • The School District of Philadelphia
    The School District of Philadelphia Potential Impact of $94.5M Revenue Reduction on School Budgets Methodology and Notes Key Green Text = Can Be Cut Red Text = Cannot Be Cut Notes: The “Enrollment Teachers” category includes Enrollment Driven Prep Teachers. 2011-12 budget data is post mid-year (December 2011) budget cuts. The Operating Budget Allotment in 2011-12 and 2012-13 is equivalent to the Per School and Per Student Allotments in 2010-11. Enrollment numbers are as projected in the spring preceding each budget year for the purpose of developing school budgets. All data is from the Staffing Management System (SMS). Data is as of 4/26/12. What can and can’t be cut? A decrease in operating revenues would have to be offset by cuts in the Operating Budget only, not in Grants. Grants budget information is shown for reference only. This analysis assumes the Enrollment Driven Teachers category is not cuttable because of maximum class sizes in the PFT collective bargaining agreement. This analysis assumes the following are not “cuttable” in FY13 because of state and federal service requirements; the extent of budget cuts that were already made in FY12; and the time that that would be required to reduce costs by changing the School District’s service model. o Gifted Support o Nursing Services o Special Education – High Incidence and Low Incidence o English as a Second Language (ESOL) o Bilingual Counselor Assistants Why are enrollments and poverty rates provided? Enrollment is important for context for Enrollment Driven Teachers (100% enrollment driven) and Operating Budget Allotment (partially enrollment driven).
