The balance fluctuates depending on the district's financial situation. According to slides presented during an April 28 financial update to staff, MPS expects to end this school year with $7,731,360 in fund balance. Shaw provided a recording of the call to The Monroe News MPS's total budget for this year is approximately $75 million “We are set to spend approximately $3 million out of fund balance this year we’ve been spending out of fund balance,” Shaw told staff on the call we’ll still be in the same spot because we have pay increases and normal increases due to all expenses out there and inflation and then we also budgeted for a student loss that’s another $2 million to $2.5 million loss We’d be looking at $5 million more of expenditures verses revenue “Our conservative estimate at the end of this year is $7.7 million Continuing to use that much of our fund balance is not sustainable so we have to look at how we can prevent that from continuing,” said Cassandra Shook the district's executive director of business and finance "Our ultimate goal is a balanced budget," Shaw said It’s federal money given to schools to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic interventions and (upgrades to improve) air quality,” Shaw said We don’t have that additional funding anymore,” Shook said The State of Michigan provides school districts funds for every student each year Shaw said the per pupil rate has been flat for two years but expenses go up because we have legacy costs with staff contracts and natural increases in the cost of items,” Shook said Michigan gave a per-pupil allowance of $9,608 That was a zero increase from the previous year Gretchen Whitmer and Republicans are discussing increasing the allotment by just over $400 per pupil “We’re waiting on the Democrats for their number,” Shaw said “We fully expect that we’ll see a nominal increase in our foundation this coming year We need $600 a year (per pupil) just to break even we have the potential to get back to having a balanced budget." He said the district is also waiting to hear about federal funding It’s hard to say where that’s going to land,” Shaw said Student populationShook and Shaw said declining enrollment is an issue for most schools in Michigan because of lower birth rates and families moving out of areas “This is the first year since 1942 with less than 100,000 live births in Michigan,” Shaw said These are numbers we’re going to continue to watch.” Shaw said the district budgets each year for a 150-student loss “The sinking fund is a beautiful gift the community has given to MPS The sinking funds get used for a lot of projects those costs would have come out of the general fund,” Shaw said The current updates to Waterloo Elementary Previous Coverage: 'Waterloo's coming back' “The technology milage (part of the general fund) .. We have two gifts in our community that have a huge impact on what we can do," Shaw said Shaw said there is always a need to invest in the district “We have to always continue to move forward social/emotional; we see all this great work that is happening "We still have to invest in staff and programs All the investment in professional development if all of these great employees we have are not getting pay increases Shaw said the district is likely heading into some lean years "We have to plan for what appears to be on the horizon.” If you’re ooking for something beautiful you are invited toexplore the “one-of-a-kind shopping experience” featuring the work of local potters and photographers at the Fired Up and Photographed Art Exhibition currently on show at Monroe Walton Center for the Arts in MonroeFrom functional pieces that you reach for every day to whimsical creations that spark joy and conversation the WCMA pottery collection is “brimming with heart and imagination,” according to the art center There also is “stunning photography that captures the beauty of our world through the eyes of local artists perfect for gifts or simply to treat yourself.”Every purchase supports local artists and the nonprofit community art center which enables you to “shop with purpose and pride The Show and Sale runs from now through June 2 at MWCA located at 205 South Broad Street in Monroe There will be a Show Reception where you can meet the artists from 6 – 7:30 p.m You must be logged in to post a comment Lehigh Valley Health Network held its Monroe County launch for the Blue Envelope Program aimed to help drivers with autism spectrum disorder and law enforcement to better communicate with each other LVHN distributed blue envelopes to members of Pocono law enforcement departments at the Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital Inclusive Playground at Pocono Raceway in Long Pond Representatives from Stroud Area Regional Police Department Pocono Township Police Department and Pocono Mountain Regional Police Department were present the Blue Envelope Program aims to help drivers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or anyone else who may have communication difficulties or other conditions that may affect their ability to communicate during a police interaction The blue envelopes are displayed in the driver’s car to indicate that they are on the autism spectrum The envelope includes instructions for the driver on what they should do during a traffic stop includes tips for police to help the interaction go smoothly and indicates whether or not the driver is verbal Pocono Raceway President Ben May called the program “neat,” “fascinating” and “fantastic.” help members of the community and to make it safer and more consistent is something we’re all about," said May May added that Pocono Raceway instantly said yes when LVHN asked if the Tricky Triangle would like to help launch the program “We’re very understanding of our platform here as not only a vital part of this local community but also in hosting NASCAR as a global sport that he have a platform,” May said “And if we can use that platform to help get the word out help our partners like LVHN and Pocono Mountain Regional with their initiatives According to AAA the program was first introduced in Connecticut in 2020 LVHN Emergency Operations Director Joshua Houck said Blue Envelope Programs have now started in 13 states “An interaction with law enforcement can be taxing for any of us on any type of day,” said Houck it could be even worse.” Houck said that the program was launched to spread awareness of this issue to law enforcement and the community Pocono Township Police Department Chief James Wagner said that he thought the blue envelopes would help his officers recognize they are dealing with drivers with ASD “I just think this is a great opportunity for our officers to immediately address the issues with autism and drivers and it should obviously give the driver the comfort to be able to deal with when they're stopped,” said Wagner Michael Sampere said that he found out about the program from another state and that it was recently implemented in Lehigh and Northampton counties Those interested in receiving a blue envelope can go to https://www.lvhn.org/blueenvelope They can also be obtained in person at various LVHN locations and at Monroe County police departments Max Augugliaro is the public safety and government watchdog reporter at the Pocono Record.

Our middle school students are best served by teachers prepared for their needs,” said Jayme Stokes, Director of Teacher Certification and Professional Advancement in the ULM School of Education. The certification is a 24-credit, three-semester program designed to last one year, starting with three summer classes followed by one eight-week court in the fall and another one in the spring. “We are so excited to add online, cost-effective opportunities in obtaining middle school teaching certification to our alternative certification programs,” said Dr. Myra Lovett, Director of the ULM School of Education. “With the current teacher shortage, this will meet an important need in our region’s K-12 schools.” Teachers who participate in the program will have access to free PRAXIS support as well. Applications for the program are open until May 9, 2025, with the first cohort starting on May 27.
