Well, let me see. These are just a few off the top of my thoughts:
Sarah Allan: $90K plus benefits
Sara Singer: $100K plus benefits
John Wilhelmi: $110K plus benefits
Lolenzo Poe: $110K plus benefits
Robin Mack (Lolenzo’s consultant) $50/hour

I was thinking along the lines of the cost of the Seer, public relations, survey, facilities assessment contracts….

SEER was paid $75K for their “contribution” to the process.

In terms of facilities assessment, were they using the Magellan documents from two years ago? That cost about $1 million.

According to a document I got from PPS, the Gates Foundation gave us $285,000 for “Community engagement for high school redesign.” There’s also $2.707 million from Gates for “High school core curriculum”.

Interestingly, I didn’t ask for information on Gates – I asked for a rundown of stimulus funds. The district included Gates on the spreadsheet. I’d be delighted to share it with anyone that’s interested. Shoot me an e-mail at KennethLibby06(at)gmail.com

Thank you, Ken. Your information about ARRA spending was very helpful. I notice that ESL students did get a tiny sliver of the pie. How wonderful!!!
