    The 2023 Indiana legislature requires schools to adopt a policy for book material reviews.  The policy has been reviewed by legal council.  A policy for selection of materials is included.

    The criteria will be the same as in previous years and are attached. We are working on the final schedule but the amount will be $650 for 12-month employees (administrators are the same as teachers), and $487 for 9-month employees, adjusted for FTE.  The total cost is in the range of  $51,000.  We plan to pay this, as well as the Teacher Appreciation Grants, on 15 December 2023 which is the last payroll of 2023.  A draft of both stipends is attached but still as private documents until we have finalized them.  Employees would have to be employed before 1 January 2023.

    SGSC received $79,753.12 from the State for the TAG grants.  The cost of the stipends we will pay with these funds is $83,300.
