Seeing a lot of contracting out on the BOE Agenda's Consent Report, using the CCSPP Implementation Grant...OUSD should be utilizing in-house unionized employees...not agencies and organizations to provide services we already provide through our respective bargaining units' classifications.
Early Literacy Reading Tutors, Case Managers, Restorative Justice Facilitators, Counselors, and Psychologists can do a lot of the work they're contracting out in many of the General Consent Report items (L.), which are being funded through CCSPP. There are too many items to name, but it's highly concerning, and should be flagged, to not approve this horrendous practice, especially if the BOE didn't approve the contracts before the work began.
