Edgewood Alternate Governance Plan

The Edgewood Middle School Alternative Governance Board presented its recommendations to the school board last week. To read the entire proposal click here.
It's pages and pages of ideas. You can decide for yourself. I'd love to hear some comments.
One question I have is in the budgeted items. Under "contracted services" there is $50,000 requested for "related leadership services." The proposal doesn't say specifically what that is. Just curious if anyone can figure that out -- seems vague for that kind of money.
Also, when you look at how many hours a month the school administrators are supposed to allocate to the success of the school -- am I reading that correctly? Is the school improvement coordinator for the district really only required to spend 10 hours a month on EMS? With that much dedicated time, success is assured!
