Medicaid Match Program
The District has contracted with a company (JTEC Educational Consultants) to implement a Medicaid Match Program. Medicaid Match is a Federal reimbursement program administered in Washington by DSHS. The program is meant to reimburse school districts for the work they do on a daily basis to help identify low-income children and families who need health care services, tell them about Medicaid and help them find and apply for services.
Schools will directly reap the benefits of this program by an increase to building budgets in the amount of $5.50 per FTE. More details to come...and training, too.

We are coming up on the most stressful time of the educational year. It's weird - we begin the wrap up of the year and the planning for the next all while we continue to do the day to day teaching and learning. In the face of every situation, remember to SMILE and welcome the opportunity to show your strength and ability in the face of challenges. Thank you for all you do!
