Southern Westchester BOCES Budget 2015-2016 A Message From The Board of Education On behalf of the Board of Education, I am pleased to present you with the Southern Westchester BOCES budget proposal for 2015-16. As you will see in our annual Budget Book, we have included 44 pages of details about our expenses and revenues, including our Administrative and Capital budgets, and the budgets of the more than 120 cooperative programs and services we are proud to offer to the schools of our region. We recommend that you also consult our annual Services Guide, which was recently mailed to you, for complete descriptions of our programs and services. Like the school districts in our region and statewide, SWBOCES faces budget constraints including a dramatic increase in the costs of health insurance for our retirees. At the same time, we have made a concerted effort to consistently reduce the costs associated with our day-to-day Administrative budget, which supports the management coordination and leadership provided by Board members and the BOCES administration, resulting in a decrease in spending of 0.53 percent over the 2014-15 budget. In the past two years, that budget has been reduced by 1.58 percent. The cost of health insurance for our retirees has resulted in a projected increase of that portion of our budget by $542,400 over the 2014-15 budget, a percentage increase of 11.01 percent. That amount accounts for a projected increase in the number of SWBOCES retirees as we enter the new school year, bringing the total number of retirees receiving post-employment health insurance to 509. The Capital Budget of $3.3 million pays for the leases and rentals of SWBOCES classrooms and office space, along with payments for the BOCES-wide energy performance contract. The 2015-16 Capital Budget calls for an increase of 1.52 percent, a reflection on projected contractual rental increases for existing facilities leased for programming. Please note that the SWBOCES Annual Dinner and Meeting will be held on Wednesday, April 8, where we will explain our proposed budget in detail. To better understand our budget and to share your own challenges with us, please mark your calendars and designate at least one Board of Education member and one administrator to attend. You will also have the opportunity to meet this year’s candidates for positions on the SWBOCES Board of Education. Remember to schedule a vote on the SWBOCES Administrative Budget and trustee election on April 21. Don’t hesitate to contact any of our Board members or administrators if you have questions about our budget or our services. You can contact us at 914-937-3820 extension 542. Sincerely,

Joseph Wooley President, Southern Westchester Board of Education

Southern Westchester BOCES Budget 2015-2016 2015-2016 Budget Highlights Administrative Budget Day to Day Expenses decrease of 0.53%. Post-employment benefits are provided for 509 retirees. Retiree budget to budget increase is 11.01%. Combined Administrative and Retiree budget to budget increase amounts to 5.39%.

Capital Budget Total budget to budget increase of 1.52%. Significant majority of increase relates to existing contractual obligations.

Center for Career Services Tuitions for SWBOCES Career and Technical Education Programs are commensurate with other Career and Technical Education tuitions charged by other BOCES serving the greater New York City metropolitan area. Projected expenses for 2015-2016 are associated with mandated industry certified Career and Technical Education curricula, equipment, materials and supplies; and the NYSED approval and re-approval process. This process includes hiring â&#x20AC;&#x153;highly qualifiedâ&#x20AC;? academic content teachers and consultants to; develop, update and facilitate Career and Technical Education integrated academic curricula. Additional costs are also attributed to aligning All SWBOCES CTE curricula to meet the new NYSED Regent Reforms Common Core Learning standards and NYSED CDOS standards, and the development and implementation of new APPR protocols that require additional data collection, technology and staff training.

Center for Special Services The Center for Special Services continues its focus on high quality programs aligned with New York State Common Core Standards and Career Development and Occupational Studies, as well as professional development emphasizing best practices. In all CoSers vocational technical training is available to students at our Center for Career Services for no additional fee if students are enrolled in a SWBOCES program.

Center for Professional Development Professional learning opportunities support district work with the NYS Regents Reform Initiatives, curriculum and instruction, closing gaps in student learning, student social and emotional needs, school safety and support for homeless students. Increased number of services offered to support needs identified by districts. Increased number of districts requesting comprehensive professional development. Increased enrollment and participation in courses leading to increased number of consultants who work as extended members of our team to provide professional development. Continue to streamline budget and financial practices for transparency and drive decisions for continued fiscal responsibility. Strong collaboration with Section One Athletics to design and deliver the 6 Hour Mandated Dignity for Act Students state training. Continued on page 8

Lower Hudson Regional Information Center In response to the continued financial challenges that our districts are facing, the LHRIC reduced pricing where possible and launched central managed services, such as Infrastructure Support and Cloud Application Remote Support, as a way of providing support to districts at a lower price point. In addition, we have launched new services to augment district support such as the concept of shared CIO Support. The LHRIC continues to further develop services that support mobile learning environments through enhanced professional development initiatives in the continuum of Model Schools, including Model Schools Plus, Customized Consulting, and Emerging Technologies. In order to save districts time and effort in complying with the Smart Schools Bond application process, the LHRIC has introduced the Clarity survey tool to assess the purposeful impact of technology on student learning and a new service to support districts in their Smart School Bond planning and implementation. The LHRIC has distinguished itself state-wide by completing a SOC Audit, an independent, third-party audit of the LHRIC's data security and privacy practices. In addition, the Regional Data Privacy Office provides districts with data security expertise along with an inventory tool to support districts in their collection of data. Under leadership of the LHRIC, 10 Regional Information Centers have come together to create a service called "ricOneAPI." The Service is a fully automated data integration service delivered by RICs and paid for by subscribing database vendors for the benefit of school districts at little orno cost to districts.

Center for Adult and Community Services The Adult Literacy Programs have achieved Highly Proficient NYSED Report Card ratings for the last two years consecutively. As an Eligible Training Provider of classes, the Center creates linkages for students to our workforce system through the Department of Labor, and Veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Administration. Many pathways are offered for students to avail themselves in an effort to respond to student need, postsecondary goals, and workforce demand.

Interscholastic Athletics The proposed 2015-2016 budget is an overall budget-to-budget decrease of 0.24%. The operation of the Interscholastic Athletic office expenses carry a projected 0.97% budget-to-budget increase offset by a proposed 6.49% decrease in the payments to Section 1. The Athletic Officials district payments and other expenses are projected to remain consistent with the 2014-15 budget. The Tier System used to calculate each districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shared cost is based on the five-classification system currently used by the NYSPHSAA. This system evenly distributes the costs to schools based on enrollment.

Southern Westchester BOCES Budget 2015-2016 Differences Between a BOCES Budget and a Local School District Budget 1. The budget is contingent on the purchase of programs and services by school districts. Enrollment is the single biggest factor affecting program costs. District participation is the single biggest factor affecting service costs. 2. Staffing requirements for Special Education and Occupational Education are imposed by federal and state mandates. 3. Cash flow is dependent upon the payment of bills on a monthly basis, not taxation. BOCES is not eligible to receive state aid. However, on behalf of its component districts, BOCES does apply for BOCES state aid for aidable BOCES services that the district purchases. 4. The timetable for budget development is different, necessitating completion almost one year in advance of the fiscal year, in order to provide unit costs for use by local districts in their own budget development. 5. All year-end fund balances must be returned to participating districts; however, participating districts must pay for year-end deficits. 6. Funds cannot be transferred from one program to another program within the BOCES. 7. More state and federal projects are generated and monitored by BOCES than by a typical district. 8. Advisory committees and user groups participate in the development of the budget. A majority of the component district Boards must approve the BOCES Administrative Budget. The BOCES Board approves the Capital and Program budgets after the Annual Meeting and Budget Presentation. 9. The State Education Department must annually approve all BOCES educational programs and services. The Department of Audit and Control monitors the BOCES budget. 10. The Administrative and Capital budgets are supported through a R.W.A.D.A. formula for component districts. For non-component districts, a service charge is applied based on the extent of services purchased. 11. Leased facilities must be in the Capital Budget rather than the program budgets. 12. Unit costs should be used to compare expenses from one year to the next. These costs are based upon an assumed level of participation, and may be adjusted on or about December 1 of the given year, based upon actual levels of participation.

Inter-Budget Charges And Credits An inter-budget Charge in a BOCES is a non-cash payment for a service, which has been performed by one department for another. The department receiving the service is given a charge thereby having the same effect as increasing their expenditures. The department performing the service is entitled to a credit thereby having the same effect as reducing their expenditures.

Southern Westchester BOCES Budget 2015-2016 Administrative Budget The format for the Administrative Budget conforms to the guidelines issued by the New York State Education Department and the Department of Audit and Control. The BOCES Administrative Budget is comprised of two sections: Day-to-Day Expenses and Retiree Benefits. The day-to-day section of the Administrative Budget supports the management, coordination and leadership provided by Board members and the central office, which includes the District Superintendent, Deputy Superintendent and offices of Student Services, Regional Services, Human Resources and Business. The proposed 2015-2016 expenditures result in a decrease of 0.53% over the approved 2014-2015 budget. The 2015-2016 budget also provides funding for 509 retirees, an increase of 51 retirees, at a cost of $5,469,400. This represents an increase of $542,400 over the approved 2014-2015 budget, a 11.01% increase. Southern Westchester BOCES offers the New York State Health Insurance Plan as the major health insurance provider. Under this plan, Medicare becomes primary insurance for those retirees over the age of 65. Of the 509 retirees, 433 are over the age of 65, an increase of 28, where Medicare is primary insurance. For those retirees, premiums are lower under the New York State Health Plan.

Center for Career Services Dahlia A. Jackson, Assistant Director The SWBOCES Center for Career Services is committed to offering Career and Technical Education programs that are rigorous, relevant and provide robust career exploration opportunities for all secondary students. Our secondary day CTE programs provides students with an academic integrated curriculum and instruction, industry certified CTE training programs that will prepare students for college and career. The iCDOS program is a half-day career exploration and training program designed to meet the specific educational goals of students in need of a smaller learning environment. iCDOS programs offer practical, hands-on skill development in specific trade areas while students develop general career readiness skills such as the appropriate behavior, dress, language, time management and social skills required to secure and maintain employment. iCDOS is aligned with the NYSED requirements for a district to grant students a CDOS commencement credential upon successful completion of the program. The Test Assessing Secondary Completion program (formerly GED) provides half-day academic instruction for students at substantial risk of not meeting the requirements of a traditional high school diploma. Instruction is provided in a supportive environment as students build skills to pass the NYS high school equivalency exam. The TASC program includes a workforce component that supports student career exploration and readiness skills.

Co S e r 1 0 1 : Secondary Day Programs Students in grades 10-12 spend half a day in their local high schools and the other half-day at the Center for Career Services where they acquire academic and technical skills for employment and entry into Post Secondary Institutions.
