Don&#8217;t expect fairness, balance, or completeness! I am just trying to be quick at communicating what is happening on the task force. Initials generally refer to task force members, a list of whom can be found at <a href=\"http:\/\/education.state.mn.us\/MDE\/Welcome\/AdvBCT\/IntegRevReplaceTaskForce\/index.html\">the official task for website<\/a>.   &#8230;Eric<\/em><\/p>\n<p>MDE will not be as involved in this task force as in many other committees and task forces. This TF is much more independent. It is a public TF and we can expect that packets and information prepared for the TF will be available on the web.<\/p>\n<p>How to best allocate funds previously allocated per MS 124D.86<br \/>\n$40M for 2014 and $68M for 2015<br \/>\nThis statute is now repealed for FY2014<\/p>\n<p>124D.855 newly enacted to outlaw school segregation&#8230; Does not condone separating students based on demographic, ethnic, or racial criteria.<\/p>\n<p>Achievement gap purpose was first put in law in 2009 and effective for the 2009\/10 school year. Only in its second year.<\/p>\n<p>Green asks for clarification about repurpose. Brenda says that the special session provided urgency to the conversation by sunsetting the provision. Dollars are still there for 2014-15, but what will we do with them after that?<\/p>\n<p>Kirsten, this is a wonderful opportunity to be innovative and creative. She sees repurposing = replacement. Mariani, would not support using a different word and thinks that repurposing offers a lot of room for creativity.<\/p>\n<p>Orfield, points out that Judge Larson never found our districts &#8220;unitary&#8221; and there may still be an ongoing obligation that would be important to understand.<\/p>\n<p>Anne Parks&#8230; Rule has the force of law, but is trumped by statute. Rule will stand even after revenue statute dies. No action to remove rule.<\/p>\n<p>www.auditor.leg.state.mn.us School District Integration Revenue report<br \/>\nJudy Randall presented<\/p>\n<p>Seems odd that this whole meeting is about integration aid, rather than thinking beyond integration. Orfield pointing to Justice Kennedy and Title Six ruling for guidance.<\/p>\n<p>Battle nominates Peter as chair. Ericsson nominates Thomas. TF decides not to nominate the legislators. TF adopts unanimously.<\/p>\n<p>Note that integration transportation aid was not amended by the legislature and is not on the cutting block at this time.<\/p>\n<p>Tuesday&#8217;s from 1:30-4pm in CCA Room 13: 11\/15, 11:29, 12\/13, 12\/20, 1\/10, 1\/17, 2\/7. Maybe hold final meeting at statehouse.<\/p>\n<p><em>END OF NOTES, more about the task force on <a href=\"https:\/\/wp.clst.org\/emidfamilies\/irratf\">our Integration Revenue Replacement Advisory Task Force page<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First meeting of the task force.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1002","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-irratf","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.clst.org\/emidfamilies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1002","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.clst.org\/emidfamilies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.clst.org\/emidfamilies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.clst.org\/emidfamilies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.clst.org\/emidfamilies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1002"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wp.clst.org\/emidfamilies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1002\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.clst.org\/emidfamilies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1002"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.clst.org\/emidfamilies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1002"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.clst.org\/emidfamilies\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1002"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
