New Equipment for New Positions
New Positions = Growth Positions (Not Just New Teacher)
•The assumption is made that every room has a desk, chair and computer.
•Just because the classroom wasn’t used last year doesn’t necessarily mean there was
never any equipment in the room. Go find it or purchase out of campus funds.
Growth Position = Additional Equipment
•Campuses that truly add a growth position have the ability to request funds to assist in
acquiring needed furnishings for new classroom.
•Portables will be furnished with necessary equipment for classroom use.
