Summary:
|
Springfield Public Schools has engaged in a collaborative with the Partnership for Resilience (PfR), which is an Illinois organization that works to support schools, families, and communities in ensuring all children have the educational, health, and social emotional support to be successful in life. The role of the Partnership for Resilience is to assist Springfield Public Schools and the Springfield Education Association in creating and operating a network of trauma responsive schools. This network will be called the “Springfield Resilience Initiative”, or SRI. The first cohort of SRI schools in our District include: Fairview, Feitshans, Matheny-Withrow, Ridgely, Washington, and Douglas. Upon Board approval, the District will compensate the Partnership for Resilience in the amount of $40,000 for the range of consulting activities. The SEA/IEA will also contribute $10,000/year for the work of helping to build the SRI partnership and resources obtained in the process.
