Norma Brewer [email protected] Questions/Comments Email from Alma Garcia, Educate Texas (Leadership Coach) Ms. Brewer - The school year is clearly off to a great start. Now that the “back to school” dust has settled, we are moving forward to another rewarding and successful school year. With this in mind, I am reaching out to you as we begin our work together with your College, Career Readiness School Model (CCRSM) program. Educate Texas, a public/private organization that is working with the Texas Education Agency has appointed me as Leadership Coach for the following schools: Weslaco 21st Century CTE Early College High School Weslaco East High School Weslaco High School I would like for us to have a cluster/joint meeting with the STEM/ECHS (CCRSM) team (school leaders) next month. Would you be available to host us at next month's meeting? If you agree, can you please set up a meeting location that can accommodate 10-12 individuals. I will need about 1.5 -2 hours. Additionally, I will also need a projector (I will bring a slide deck on a flash drive) and copies of some resources and items that I will share with the leaders. As soon as you confirm, I can send out a meeting maker/calendar invite. CCRSM - MEETING DATE: Monday, November 11, 1:30PM-3:30PM LOCATION - TBA I’ll spend some time with a deep introduction of my role in assisting you with your CCRSM. While I haven’t finished an agenda, my thinking was that I cover (subject to change) the following. I suggest that you invite your central office administrators, counseling, data, Higher Ed liaison, and anyone you feel might add value to listening to updates, state requirements, OMBs, and to shake my hand in hope that I can build a trusting and productive relationship with You and your district. Thank you Norma Brewer [email protected] Weslaco Independent School District THE RIGHT CHOICE! Student Support Services Department 400 S. Oklahoma Street /P.O.

The chart below show figures that I have gathered for STC costs. The figures in black reflect invoices we have received from STC for fall 2019. These will be invoiced in January, but campuses have been directed to submit a requisition for this total now. The figures in blue represent what was spent last year. I believe we are still lacking fall 2019 invoices for WEHS as their total last year was double what we have been invoiced for this year. My concern is that there is not enough money in the accounts for WEHS and CTE ECHS to cover the projected enrollment. When this budget was discussed over the summer, I mentioned several times that business office staff needed to run the accounts for tuition to see the totals for 2018-2019 and that would be about what we would need this year. I take responsibility for not putting this in writing and failing to gather this information myself prior to this point. Bottom line is that we need the campus budgets for tuition to reflect the amounts below. We never know the exact bill from STC until we receive it.
