APPEALS… THE WORKFLOW WE SHOULD SEE • Pre-appeal… SEC + leader co-analyze schedules and staffing to see what can be covered now. • Appeal submission… ServiceNow with clean schedules + short rationale tied to minutes. • Analysis… three-level review… target ~3 weeks or less. • Post-appeal… SEC + leader confirm coverage; Chief looped so resources match the plan. Policy-grounded program needs (e.g., dual language) will be respected. Optional program choices may require discretionary funds or adjusting within allocation.
WHAT CPAA PRESSED • Staffing capacity to speed appeals and day-to-day support. • Practical PD… behavior supports, data tracking + interventions, IEP writing/implementation (teachers + SECAs), early identification that can reduce unnecessary minutes. • Proactive planning… HS schedules start as early as October; leaders need earlier, reliable staffing signals. • Uniform SEC support across portfolios… equity requires alignment and time in schools.
WHAT YOU CAN DO THIS MONTH • Book a pre-appeal with your SEC; co-read schedules vs. minutes. • File in ServiceNow with tight schedules AND rationale. • Track enrollments/service changes and flag patterns early. • Send recurring issues to CPAA so we can escalate trends.
Uniform SEC support is equity in practice… we want to see the same help for every school. —PRINCIPAL LIZ MOURTOKOKIS, NORTHSIDE LEARNING CENTER HS
