Update KCKPS Building/Department Title IX Coordinators/Investigators for 22-23
from Federal Programs
The Title IX team is working to prepare Title IX training and support for the upcoming school year.
Building Principals and Department Leaders should review the KCKPS Building/Department Title IX Coordinator/Investigator 22-23 spreadsheet, which has your Building or Department Title IX Coordinator/Investigator information listed for this current school year (21-22).
If there are NO changes, you are done!
If you ARE changing your Building or Department Title IX Coordinator/Investigator for the 22-23 SY, please enter that information into the sheet before the end of day on 6/16/22.
This will help us to determine how we might differentiate training to support all learners.
Thanks for your help!

Building PD Plans Folder Linked Into KansaSTAR
from Federal Programs
A Building PD Plans folder has been linked to each building’s School Improvement Plan in KansaSTAR.
Please use the folder icon in the top right hand corner of your main screen in KansaSTAR to access the Building PD Plans folder. When you click on this main folder, your school’s Building PD Plan folder will display in your window.
A shortcut link to the KCKPS 22-23 District PD Plan has been placed in each folder for quick and easy access by the BLT. Buildings should use their respective folder to store their Building PD Plans and artifacts.
Questions regarding the PD Plan, contact Lindsey Schneider or your IIO. Questions regarding the KansaSTAR system, contact Lisa Walker.

For Title I Principals
Independent Reading Books for Elementary & Middle School Students
from Federal Programs
In lieu of purchasing book vending machines for Title I buildings, Title I carryover dollars were used instead to purchase independent reading books for all elementary and middle school students.
Due to this change in decision, we were unable to have the books delivered in time to distribute to students before the end of this school year. Books will be delivered to each building within the next two weeks and Library Media Specialists will organize and distribute books to students upon their return to school in the fall.
Questions, please contact Carol Levers or Lisa Walker.
Reminders
KCKPS Staffing Process Sheet for Annual Spring Budget Planning & Meetings
from Federal Programs
Any staffing position included in the building budget must be an existing district approved position with an existing district approved job description, and district approved compensation scale for the following school year.
Position titles and/or job descriptions of staff included and approved in the building budget cannot be changed (during the summer or following school year) to something different than what was discussed and approved during the spring budget meetings. (Titles and actual duties must remain consistent with district approved job descriptions and associated district approved compensation scales.)
Additional positions cannot be added and charged to the budget after the spring budget meetings (during the summer or following school year), without first discussing with Federal Programs, Human Resources, and Finance departments.
Any newly created positions must be vetted and approved through the Human Resources Department and the principal must provide the approved job description from the Human Resource Department, as well as the approved compensation scale for the new positions. Positions cannot be added (even as a projection) in the building budget, unless they’ve been vetted and approved through the Human Resources Department.
