1 teaching assistant principal
1 art ormusic teacher1 PE orlibrarian

The old system
More or less money depending on the special
needs of the students, such as poverty,
disabilities, and limited English proficiency.
Small enrollment swings didnt change the
bottom line.
Less flexibility for principals

How CPS arrived at this amount
Adding together last years expenditures on thingsthat would be covered by SBB. Including:
Quota positions
College ready funds Full school day positions
Summer clerks and programmers
= $2 billion But the amount was reduced by $81 millionbecause of the districts budget deficit
