We are an Opportunity Community!

With a poverty rate of approximately 28%, our community could use a hand up rather
than a hand out to get better jobs and lead lives out of poverty.
October 17, 2014 was our first Opportunity Conference with
100 neighbors and 50 navigators. We also had a resource fair
and Donna Beegle, anti-poverty advocate, spoke and
provided hope.

45% (avg)

The hope continues...

We have followed the conference with bi-monthly get togethers to assist
building relationships and providing resources, while increasing attendance.

Effects of Projected Revenues

A budget of: Link to COSA POSTER
7.25 would result in a cuts budget for Lebanon and would cause an increase in
class sizes or go through a difficult labor negotiations. Currently contract
negotiation year for Certified. Classified contract is not up for negotiations until
next year.
7.5 would allow Lebanon to maintain current programs, provide more support in
the area of counseling, and offer our employees a fair contract after years of
concessions.
7.8 would allow Lebanon to expand our CTE programs, offer music at the
elementary level, increase counseling support, offer our employees a fair contract,
and work on some of our deferred maintenance.

3/24/2015
Democrats on an Oregon legislative panel voted Tuesday to advance a $7.255
billion spending plan for primary and secondary schools. Committee approval
only. Going to the House for a vote this week.
Education interests have criticized the budget as inadequate, warning it won't
provide enough money to improve Oregon's lackluster graduation rates and will
likely for some schools to cut school days or increase class sizes.
House Speaker Tina Kotek and Senate President Peter Courtney stated that, If
the next revenue projection, due in May, shows the state will have more money
than is now anticipated, 40 percent of the additional revenue will be dedicated
to K-12 schools

School Furniture: multiple sites (40K)

Remaining $350,000 for the following:

Bathroom upgrades: 7OAK, HCR, LHS

Technology and Transportation

Technology: Federal E-rate program - 70% reimbursement for many
technology services. E-rate is changing its policies and eliminating
reimbursement for phone services. Currently awaiting infrastructure audit to
determine further needs. Recommendations are to maintain current
funding until a plan to meet needs for the next few years can be
determined.
Transportation: Emission standards dictates that any bus purchased in 2007
or later must be updated or retired by 2025. Strategically setting aside funds to
leverage purchasing power will allow Lebanon to purchase a higher number of
buses.
