        Presenter: 
Amy Miller, Online Social Worker     
        Description: 
 We are requesting board approval to move forward with this teletherapy contract with ReGroup Counseling for the 22-23 school year. This would require a $10,000 retainer to cover students whose insurance may not cover the required fees. Any additional funds at the end of the year would roll into the next year, or if the school decides to end the agreement, the remaining funds would be returned to the school. The $10,000 retainer fee would come from our ESSER funding and would not impact the general school budget.
