Weekly Hot News Podcast, February 10, 2020

The School Board will open its work session on Tuesday, February 11th, for up to an hour of public comment on HSD’s proposed Student Investment Account, or SIA, budget for the 2020-21 school year. SIA is the portion of money collected through the Student Success Act that is coming directly to K-12 school districts through a non-competitive grant process. Feedback has been sought on priorities for SIA funds since the fall, and the draft budget has been crafted based on that input. The public comment session provides stakeholders one more opportunity to share their thoughts before the Board takes action on the proposed budget on Tuesday, February 25th, during their regular session. The public comment session will occur from approximately 7 to 8 p.m. at the Administration Center, located at 3083 NE 49th Place.
