Subject: [MOSAIC] Reading Specialist


Due to the need to make budget cuts, our district is considering
eliminating the position of Reading Specialist.  They are thinking of
using Stimulus funds to hire three part time "instructional coaches" to
work in classrooms to assist with math and reading.  The assumption is
that these three will replace the Reading Specialist.

Anyway, there are some staff who will be coming to the next board meeting
when this will be discussed.  Have any of you folks gone through anything
similar?  Have there been any arguments that have helped to plead the case
in support of keeping the Reading Specialist?  I hate to see our district
lose that position.  I have seen other districts lose the reading
specialist and it takes years to get that specialist back, if they ever do.

Sandy
