Expected Impact:

The position allows the Charter School to more effectively utilize grant funds to serve students with disabilities.

 

Alternative Options:

Without updating the position, additional costs will be charged to the Charter School program and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act grant funds would not be utilized.
