Based on conservative estimates, the aid received could be close to $188,600, with the district saving an additional $30,000 by eliminating three mid-day bus runs.
The district would receive the aid at the end of June 2013.

According to the district, the full-day will give students more of an opportunity to develop their social skills, while teachers and counselors will have more time to collaborate and deliver "more meaningful instruction, modeling, and guidance in this area.
