Chapter 1 Support for Instructional Development, 1986-87.
Kaemper, Jack; Morse, Kathy
Six of the 39 Albuquerque (New Mexico) Public Schools' Chapter 1 participating schools, as part of the school-based budgeting process, allocated a portion of their Chapter 1 resource allocation for on-site intensive staff development activities. Three schools--Alamosa, Chaparral, and Duranes--agreed to utilize the time of a Support for Instructional Development (SID) resource teacher equal to two-tenths (0.2) of a full-time equivalent (FTE) teacher. Three other schools--Griegos, Lavaland, and Navajo--contracted for one-tenth (0.1) FTE SID position each. The SID component provided staff inservice activities for 154 teachers, administrators, and other school personnel. These program participants served a total of 637 Chapter 1 students and were involved in activities that focused on the educational needs of these children. The principals and participants who completed feedback questionnaires (N=70) felt very positive about their involvement with SID; however, their comments indicated that the inservice component might be spread too thin and schools were not being served for long enough periods. It was also noted that a few participants were served who were not eligible for service since they did not have Chapter 1 students in their caseloads. In the future, this situation must be avoided if the project application continues to limit the service to teachers of participating Chapter 1 children. Participant and principal feedback questionnaires are attached. (Author/SLD)
