RE: Proposed 2012-2013Replacement & New Projects Budget Matrix and 2012-2017 Projections
The attached documents include detailed breakouts of the Proposed Fund 12 Capital Reserve Technology Replacement and New Projects Matrix for the 2012 /2013 budget year discussions. I have also included replacement and new project projections from 2012 to 2017 for planning purposes. Generally speaking, the Replacement Projects are based on a 5-year-10 ten year cycle. New Projects are based on the District’s Strategic Plan and Cyclical Review Process. As you will see in the replacement project details for 2012/2013, a number of PC labs and student laptops have been deferred for at least another year. The reason the PC labs listed can be deferred is that they were designed as a “thin” client/server or virtual desktop environment. The student PCs connect to a server and run applications on a virtual desktop. Generally speaking, the “thin” clients have fewer or inexpensive moving parts to wear out and thus can have a longer replacement cycle. The applications and processing power are delivered by the server. We will continue to expand the thin client or virtual desktop model to extend hardware replacement cycles, standardize software apps, and reduce software maintenance and installation requirements. The student laptops are being deferred so that we can focus on needed upgrades to our wireless infrastructure in the middle school and senior high. In addition, the improved wireless will help develop a one to one access to instructional content through bring your own device (BYOD) networks. BYOD networks provide secure access to multiple devices like smart phones, iPads, and other tablet devices and would allow us to reduce or eliminate district purchased laptops. PA COSTARS-3 or PEPPM will be used for equipment and installation quotes. 2012/2013 Replacement Projects Rationale: Senior High CFF Teacher Laptops—30 laptops are now in their fifth year and should
be replaced due to wear and tear. ($30,000) Network Printers—each year 10 to 12 network printers are evaluated to be replaced.
They are only replaced as needed. We are exploring a print management solution that will help reduce costs for toner supplies and hardware maintenance. ($15,000)
Classroom Teacher PCs—40 PCs are now in their fifth year and should be replaced due to wear and tear. 10 of the PCs are located in the Middle School and the remaining 30 are throughout the elementary buildings. ($40,000)
1
Senior High School CFF LCD Projectors—evaluate the replacement of 10 ceiling mounted projectors, if necessary. These projectors are five years old. (6,500)
Senior High COW Smart Boards—evaluate the replacement of 5 of the original CFF electronic whiteboards, if necessary. ($9,000)
Central Admin & District Services PCs—6 computers are now in their fifth year and should be replaced due to wear and tear. ($6,000)
Network Switch Electronics—each year network switches are evaluated to be replaced. They are only replaced due to wear and tear or if they are no longer supported under hardware and software maintenance. ($45,000)
Senior High Wireless Network—the wireless infrastructure is now eight years old and is not able to adequately support the wireless laptops and applications that are currently being used. With the demand for increased Internet access and Web delivered resources like streaming audio and video as well as online textbooks and Moodle lessons, the existing wireless capacity is being pushed to its limits. This results in connectivity issues and login delays. The current wireless bandwidth of 54 Mb/sec was fast years ago, but cannot continue to support the current number or concentration of laptops. It cannot support multiple wireless security IDs, guest networks, and even load balance. The proposed replacement project would include the centralized management hardware and electronics to expand the system to other buildings as well as the electronics and cabling to replace all the wireless radios at the senior high. ($190,000)
Middle School Wireless Network—the wireless infrastructure was installed at the same time as the senior high and is experiencing similar connectivity, login delays, and further expansion issues. The proposed replacement project is dependent on the centralized management hardware and electronics that is a part of the senior high replacement project. The goal would be to do both buildings this summer. If we had to prioritize, the senior high and centralized management project should be done first and then follow with the middle school next summer. With the centralized management hardware in place, then we would have the capacity to expand our wireless into the elementary schools in the years to come. ($122,000)
Web Content Management System—this project would replace our Web server, district, building, and staff Web pages with a hosted service with the latest Web 2.0 tools, District and School Calendars, Online Forms, Newsletter subscriptions, and Event Registration capabilities to name a few. The hosted service would be renewed each year. We would not have to maintain any hardware. ($8,000)
New projects are based on input from the District’s Strategic Plan and the Cyclical Review process. The Strategic Planning and Curriculum Review committees provide a framework for integrating technology across the curriculum. 2012/2013 New Projects Rationale: Expand Concept of Smart Classrooms in the Middle School Science Classrooms—
through last year’s stimulus grant, ceiling mounted projectors and audio systems were installed in all English, Math, Science, Social Studies, and World Language classrooms. Math and World Language classrooms were also equipped with electronic whiteboards. This project will install 9 Science classrooms with electronic whiteboards. ($16,900)
Visual Arts Ceiling Mounted Projector System and Document Cameras—the cyclical review proposed ceiling mounted projectors and document cameras to help deliver Web based resources and 2D and 3D art objects to whole group instruction. ($15,450)
2
Middle School Multimedia Camcorders and Tripods—the cyclical review proposed expanding student access to Camcorders and tripods to produce multimedia projects. This project would allow more students to work on their respective projects at one time. ($8,250)
Server Virtualization, VM Desktop Apps, and Cloud Computing Phase I—this project phase will allow us to reduce the number of physical servers from over 40 to just 15. We will be able to virtualize and centralize our domain and application servers in a fraction of the space, power, and HVAC required now. In addition, we will be better able to provide backup and recovery of server based applications. Finally we will be better prepared to deliver virtual desktops to multiple fixed and mobile devices. ($85,000)
Portable Teleprompter for Senior High Portable TV Studio—this hardware was deferred from the 11/12 budget. It will enable teleprompter capabilities for live remote TV productions. ($2,000)
Sincerely, Frank J. Muto

MEMORANDUM DATE: February 14, 2011 TO: House Republican Members FROM: William F. Adolph, Jr., Chairman SUBJECT: Proposed FY2012-13 K-12 Education Funding
Attached is the school district printout for the Governor’s proposed 2012-2013 education budget. As
you have no doubt heard, the Governor is proposing a new Student Achievement Education Block Grant (SAEBG) to fund school districts. This block grant is comprised of four existing subsidies, Basic Education Funding, Social Security, Pupil Transportation, and Nonpublic and Charter School Pupil Transportation the Department of Education (PDE) has indicated that the amounts used to calculate the 2012-2013 SAEBG subsidy amount for each district included the same or more funding for the four line-items listed above.
The attached spreadsheet lists the old subsidies being collapsed into the new SAEBG , and the Accountability Block Grant, and then their combined total for each school district in the 2011-2012 fiscal year. It then shows the proposed SAEBG funding for 2012-2013 fiscal year. The final column lists the overall change in funding each school district will receive for these five major subsidies that provide the majority of funding that goes directly to the classroom. For most districts, this change is negative due to the elimination of the Accountability Block Grant from the Governor’s 2012-2013 budget.
You may recall that in his 2011-2012 proposal, Governor Corbett eliminated $254.5 million in Accountability Block Grant funding. During budget negotiations last year, we were able to restore $100 million of Accountability Block Grant funding but the administration insisted it be funded through a supplemental for the 2010-2011 fiscal year. With this agreement school districts received additional money for their 2010-2011 appropriation, but after the 2010-2011 school year was over. Therefore, districts could only spend the additional Accountability Block Grant funding in the 2011-2012 fiscal year. Consequently, the $100 million we restored last year was used by most school districts for this current 2011-2012 school year but appears in the 2010-2011 state appropriations. This has created a situation where PDE considers the $100 million in Accountability Block Grant funds to be a 2010-2011 appropriation and districts consider it to be a 2011-2012 appropriation making it very complicated for straight-forward comparisons related to year-over-year funding. The reality is that some districts may see little to no difference between 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 funding while others may see fewer dollars available to be used for the classroom.

The SAEBG does not include all the major subsidies received by school districts. There are other
important line items that are widely distributed to school districts in the 2012-2013 budget proposal. Here is a list of those subsidies, their proposed amounts for 2012-2013, and how that amount compares to 2011-2012:
• Authority Rentals and Sinking Fund Requirements, $296.2 million, the same amount appropriated for 2011-2012;
• Special Education, $1 billion, the same amount appropriated for 2011-2012; • Tuition for Orphans and Children Placed in Private Homes, $58.6 million, a 3.5% increase over 2011-
2012; • School Food Services, $31.3 million, a 2.4% increase over 2011-2012; • School Employees’ Retirement, $916.1 million, an increase of $315 million or 52.6% over 2011-
2012.

To: Board of School Directors From: Jon Perry, Director of Financial Services Date: February 22, 2012 RE: Real Estate Tax Installment Payments/Small Business Mandate Background Prior to 2007, school districts were not required to allow for installment payments of real estate taxes. Act 1 of 2006 mandated school districts to allow installment payments of real estate taxes beginning in the 2007-2008 school year for all property owners approved as a homestead/farmstead. Currently, approved homestead/farmstead property owners have the option to elect three installment payments, with installments due September 15, October 15, and November 15. Act 25 of 2011 modifies Act 1 of 2006 and extends the installment payment option mandate to owners of small businesses beginning in the 2012-2013 school year. As such, the Board of School Directors is required to adopt a resolution prior to June 30, 2012 incorporating the new legislation. However, a practical deadline for such a decision would be necessary sooner to allow for time to notify tax collectors of changes. Recommendation That the Board of School Directors adopt a resolution extending the installment payment option to all property owners within the Franklin Regional School District boundaries under the same provisions and guidelines as the current installment payment resolution. Rationale Multiple factors impact the recommendation to extend the installment payment option to all taxpayers, rather than limit to those mandated groups (i.e. homestead/farmstead and small businesses). The new legislation requiring an installment option for small businesses is ambiguous and only provides general guidelines defining a “small business”. Act 25 includes four basic requirements: 1) the taxpayer must own the real estate, 2) the taxpayer must own the business, 3) the business may have no more than 50 employees, and 4) the business must be located in Pennsylvania. The legislation does not include guidelines related to several other key considerations:
The date by which the taxpayer must meet the small business requirements The definition of “owner” (i.e. 100% vs. controlling interest; Individual vs. LLC vs.
Corporate subsidiary, etc.) The definition of a business (i.e. Does owning commercial real estate/rental properties
constitute a business?)

The definition of employees (i.e. part-time, independent contractors, workers outside of Pennsylvania)
Due to the legislation’s ambiguity, the District would most likely need to develop an application to address the issues listed above and potentially others. Self-certification is another option; however, that could leave the taxpayer with unanswered questions and the District may lack the ability to challenge/audit a taxpayer’s certification. Under the existing installment option guidelines, less than 10% of taxpayers elect to utilize the installment option. There are no indications that the percentage would change greatly if the option were made available to all taxpayers, as the majority of taxpayers take advantage of the 2% discount, which is not available if installment payments are made. Further, in the current economic environment, the District is not at risk to lose revenue if a larger proportion of taxpayers elected the installment payment option. Attached are examples illustrating revenue streams in the current interest rate environment and breakeven interest rate scenarios. The potential implementation difficulties and financial analysis above supports the recommendation to extend the installment payment option to all taxpayers.
