Winona-Montgomery Consolidated School District develops a budget to detail the use of IDEA Part B and Preschool funds designed to provide special education and related services to students with disabilities over and above the cost of educational services provided by the school district. Stakeholders’ perspectives are important to the development of the budget for the 2021-2022 school year. We invite you to contact me to provide us with input in this process.
The preliminary plan will be available, and questions will be answered regarding the use of these funds at a meeting scheduled for June 3 from 3:00-4:00 p.m. The meeting will be held at the Wolfe Lab at Winona Secondary School at 301 Fairground Street, Winona, MS.
You are invited to attend the meeting to make suggestions or comments. You may also contact the Support Services Office at 662-283-1000 or ranamitchell@winonaschools.net. Comments and suggestions will be received until 5:00 p.m. June 8, 2021.
