AGENDA: Salem-Keizer board to hear plans for academic support, financial updates

It’s budget season, and Salem-Keizer School District leaders are updating the school board this week on key spending areas before the district’s budget committee begins meeting.

On Tuesday, the board will meet in a work session to hear about academic support programs to help students who have fallen behind over the past year. District administrators will detail how various state and federal programs and sources of money will pay for additional summer school and other help for students.

The board will also hear updates on district spending on social and behavioral help for students, transportation and technology.

Board members can attend the meeting in-person or virtually, but the public may only watch online because of Covid protocols.

To participate: The meeting begins at 6 p.m. Tuesday, April 27 and will be livestreamed on YouTube at the links below, and on CC:Media channel 21. Because the meeting is a work session and no decisions will be made, the board will not take public comment.
