Updates since the board meeting:

  • The dependent care coverage is going to be adjusted downwards in line 64 (the yellow highlighted row). It will only be for teachers/staff who have been employed at Laureate for 3 years or more, and it would be for any dependent on the health insurance plan (not just children). Claire did a back-of-the-envelope calculation 3600 * 16 or 17, which is approximately 60,000.  I hardcoded $60,000 in excel.  16 or 17 staff is closer to 50k
  • The compliance coordinator role is going to be removed so that would reduce line 41 by 65,000 (EXPENSES 100- WAGES: Sped Director). I don't believe this is coming from ESSER but will defer to you all. Removed also adjusted benefits that were driven based on headcount
  • Claire would like two more copiers for the modular. So that would increase EXPENSES 400 -PROPERTY SERVICES:Rental of Equip/Vehicles (line 168). We approximated 10-12,000 increase depending on what the lease says.  Added 12k to row
  • We wanted to confirm that the Board on Track subscription is included in expenses somewhere. We thought it might be a part of EXPENSES 300 -PROFESSIONAL & TECHNICAL SERVICES:Prof Svcs - Other Admin but we're not sure.  This was coded to the Dues/Fees category last year.  I included 6,000 in the 800 series.  Good catch.  This was added in Oct last year.
