Would the cluster still allow for flexibility at schools (e.g. if one school feels they need more funding for resource services and another for technology)?
The schools will still be receiving the exact same amount of funds/staff/services as they do now. Forming a cluster organization will not affect individual site funding in any way. IF the cluster board decides to move forward with an option that would gain more financial control at the cluster level, then the board (comprised of parents and staff from each school) would determine how the funds would be spent. Ideally, each school would get what they needed. The cluster board would not take a “One Size Fits All” approach.
