PAW PAW - A presentation was given by Todd Ervin of Bushue Human Resources during the Feb. 17 Paw Paw School Board meeting. Ervin detailed the services offered by Bushue Human Resources, which specializes in risk management outsourcing, such as monitoring HR related employment law, the complexities of employment insurance, and appropriate actions to be taken.
Also speaking was Anji Garza of the Regional Office of Education, who explained the Illinois State Board of Education’s IL-EMPOWER initiative and quality framework document. She explained that supporting students begins with a commitment to ensure all children have access to quality learning opportunities and the resources needed for success and that children learn in multiple environments starting with the home, school and community.
IL-EMPOWER is a statewide system of differentiated supports and accountability to improve student learning, achieve excellence, and help ensure equitable outcomes. Its purpose is to leverage schools’ strengths to meet student needs. In partnership with professional learning providers, IL-EMPOWER facilitates a process with schools to address the developmental needs of the whole child including social-emotional, physical health, and development. The purpose is to empower schools with a choice and a voice. It guides schools to continuously identify needed areas/challenges and to monitor, evaluate and implement their improvement standards. It suggests guiding questions for groups to use in open, honest conversations.
