Next year we will have 5 students who will qualify for a 6:1:2 program in one of our elementary schools. Currently, they are attending out of district placements through the CPSE and CSE committees or are currently in district, yet require a more restrictive setting. If the district was to educate these students in out of district placements, it is projected to cost $600,000. The development of this new class would support our continuum of services and the Life Skills programs at all levels. Additionally, the financial benefit of educating students in-house will off-set the cost of expanding our ICT program.
Cost savings to the District: Out of district cost: $600,000 In district cost for 6-1-2: $381,715 In district cost for K-1 ICT: $162,533 Total cost savings: -$55,752
