[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s a late bus at asfs, you can only take it if you are frl and an ell who is at least a grade behind in both math and reading.  At asfs at least, it’s not for enrichment, it’s for kids who need extra one on one tutoring.  Money comes out of a [b]principals discretionary fund.[/b]

Funded by the highly-resourced PTA. High fr/l schools don’t have a PTA-funded “Principal’s Discretionary Fund.” It’s admirable that ASFS is using their money in this way. However, unless APS is funding such for all schools that don’t have well-resourced PTAs, it’s problematic from an equity standpoint. [/quote]
Principals have some discretion with use of some of their APS funds.  It may be coming from that.  PTAs should not be allowing discretionary funds for principals at all.  They can set-aside some money for uses throughout the year; but should approve those uses on a case-by-case basis.  [/quote]
I posted up thread— YES, it is coming from an aps source— there is a line item for every school of “other”.  That’s partly a principals discretionary fund.  [/quote]
