A program budgetary needs assessment determines the financial needs of a small group or program in order to assist schools in allocating funds based on needs and priorities. A program budget review requires looking at key information about a program in order to develop a clear picture of how the program fits into the school’s continuous improvement plan.
Part 1: Budget Summary
For this assignment, to help familiarize you with budgets, analyze the budget of a small group at your site. If you cannot access a small group budget, you may utilize the “Small Group Sample Budget.”
In 250-500 words, write a summary of the budget that includes:
A brief overview of the program or activity including its purpose, structure, and participants
Current budget expenditures, including unexpected (unbudgeted) expenses
Current budget revenue
Non-budgetary resources required to operate and meet organizational goals (e.g., volunteers, facilities, large equipment provided by school or community)
A description of how the budget is monitored, and the process of how unexpected adjustments are made to the budget
Part 2: Program Budgetary Needs Assessment Survey
Create an 8-10 question needs assessment survey in an online survey tool (e.g., Survey Monkey) that you would give to a program or small group leader on a school campus in order to analyze their program’s budgetary needs. You will be administering this needs assessment survey in Topic 2. Examples of possible small groups include special programs, clubs, after school activities, sports clubs, student activities, etc.
The needs assessment survey should address, but not be limited to, the following:
Assessment of the current conditions or the group’s ability to achieve its stated goals or outcomes (e.g., what is working/strengths and what is lacking/areas of opportunity)
Resources required to fulfill the operations of the group
Wants and requests needed for the group
Gaps that are affecting the performance of the group
Provide the link to your online needs assessment survey on the bottom of your summary.
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.

Title: Supporting Families Through Challenges: A Family Information Night and Communication Plan for Educators
The ancient African proverb “It takes a village to raise a child” has truth. Research shows that when teachers collaborate and communicate with families, it ultimately benefits the child. However, as times have changed, so have family dynamics and societal challenges. Families may face trials that prohibit them from being involved in their child’s education, from classroom activities to school functions. Teachers can help alleviate some of these challenges by offering alternatives and solutions so that all families have the opportunity to be active participants in their child’s learning and well-being. Select three of the parental/caregiver challenges from the list below to address at a Family Information Night: Financial issues
Limited opportunities for recreation and leisure
Sibling issues
Constant care and supervision of a child with a disability
Strain on family relationships due to hardships and difficulties
Logistical issues such as transportation
Difficulty getting time away from job
Frequent disability-related crises
Health issues of family members
Difficulties obtaining appropriate educational services
Other family dynamics, such as foster care, group home, parent/guardian away due to military/career
Part 1: Family Challenge Presentation
Design a 10-15 slide digital presentation for families that outlines the selected challenges.
Within your presentation:
Describe each challenge.
Provide potential solutions to each challenge.
Provide strategies to put potential solutions in place.
Identify resources that could help parents facing each challenge.
Discuss how technology could also be a resource for families that face the challenges.
Indicate that your desire is to provide support, not to assume that you know exactly what the families are going through. Consider including a relatable personal experience that, when mentioned briefly, could bridge the gap between you and the families.
Include presenter’s notes, a title slide, and a reference slide.
Support your presentation content with 3-5 scholarly resources.
The digital presentation should include graphics that are relevant to the content, visually appealing, and use space appropriately.
Part 2: Communication Plan
Write a 250-500 word communication plan, for a grade level of your choice, to ensure collaboration with families and caregivers. Your communication plan should include how you will communicate with families throughout the school year and identify various communication methods to meet the challenges some families may face. Explain how your plan will incorporate technology.

Title: Understanding Descriptive Statistics for Informed Decision-Making in Special Education
Understanding measurement principles and the characteristics of assessments helps to minimize bias in individual teacher assessment practices. The ability to explain descriptive statistics encourages deeper understanding of how data is derived to aid decision-making within the classroom setting. These skills will support collaboration with colleagues and families in making decisions about students with disabilities to help inform future instructional practices.
Create a digital presentation, to be used for professional development, which creatively and accurately explains the dimensions of descriptive statistics. Your presentation should be 10-15 slides, including a title slide, reference slide, and presenter’s notes.
Within your presentation, explain each of the following:
Reliability
Validity
Bell curve
Mean
Standard deviation
Standard scores
Scaled scores
T-Scores
Percentiles
Conclude your presentation by describing how this knowledge relates to data literacy and why it is important for teachers to understand it when making educational decisions and differentiated instruction for individual students, including those with disabilities.
Your presentation should include visual depictions of sample statistics through graphs, tables, scatter plots, advanced organizers, etc. when it is helpful for explaining the required element. The digital presentation should include graphics that are relevant to the content, visually appealing, and use space appropriately.
Support your findings with a minimum of two scholarly resources.
