Come spring, South Haven Schools plans have a new director of federal and special programs. Wednesday night, the school board voted to create the full-time position, and Superintendent Bob Herrera hopes to have it filled by April. Herrera says the position will be paid for from the program's funding source that goes directly to the students, it will not come from the general fund.
A Michigan Department of Education audit last fall uncovered a number of deficiencies, including problems with reporting and compliance related to the special programs. The MDE will be back this fall to do a final audit, Herrera feels confident that the new position will iron out the wrinkles. The special programs are designed to give students a boost if they are falling behind academically.
