Reanée, Please find attached a draft of the latest Systemwide Position Classification Schemata and Cost impact analysis based on the structure the PGT picked. Jim has been travelling this week and has not had a chance to review this as yet. He has asked me to convey that this should be shared with as few people as possible, so as to allow us room for discussion, and to make sure the slotting and structure are appropriate with respect to the market and internal equity. This should still be considered a preliminary, draft version, ‘As you know, there have been numerous changes since the board meeting, due to which the numbers have changed somewhat in the costing. Some of these changes include: 4) change to the structure minimums based on market competitiveness 2) changes in slotting by the PGT, based on internal equity 3) moving jobs to the certified schedule 4) additions of the "new’ jobs to the schedule 5) changes to the calculations due to 247 days being considered as full time versus 260 days 6) maximums of the grades now being calculated using percentage increments from the minimum 7) changes to the work calendar ete. | will be attaching the costing detail in another email. It is a big file, so please let me know if you don't receive the second email Jim will be on planes and in airports tomorrow morning, but he should be in after 2 pm CST tomorrow. | will be in the office tomorrow, but working at a client site all next week (as always, available on the phone).

When she gets back and calls me, | will inform her as to what we need in order for you to run the second part of the Cost Impact Analysis. vim, Stan Hawkins is stil revieiwing your proposal regarding the revised pricing structure.

Ivey, Ph.D. Assistant Director for Affirmative Development Department of Parental, Community & Support Programs DeKalb County School System 678.676.0180 (business) 678.876.0193 (telefax) Reanee_N_Ivey@\c.dekalb k12.ga.us DCSS-E&Y-007890 Hi Nisha and Jim, | wanted to double-check something with Ms. Davis regarding the Cost Impact Analysis. What we will need is what it will cost to put the people in the proper place effective July 1, 2005. To do that, you must be aware that under the existing structure, persons who earn a step increase will earn that July 1, 2004. All employees will also earn a 1% raise effective January 1, 2005. All employees will also eam another 41% July 1, 2005 and the persons who will eam another step increase will also eam that on July 1, 2005. So your Cost Impact Analysis will need to consider these factors in terms of comparability. Ifyou have questions or a need to discuss this further, | will be in again about 2:00 p.m, Reanee N. Ivey, Ph.D. Assistant Director for Affirmative Development Department of Parental, Community & Support Programs Dekalb County School System 678.676.0180 (business) 678.676.0193 (teletax) Reanee_N_Ivey@fc.dekalb.k12.ga.us DCSS-E&Y-007891 Hi Nisha, Dr. Brown, Dr. Boring, Ms.Davis and Mr. Lee (Dr. Brown's new Admin Asst.) and | just met. This is what we would like for you to do relative to the Cost Impact Analysis. Tell us what it would cost per person/per job/per work year calendar using the current structure with a 2% increase plus 2 steps (for those who would earn two steps---in some cases persons would have been eligible for their final step in the 2004-2005 school year which they will get in January. Thus, they would not be eligible for two steps in 2005 or they would have been eligible for a step that would have left only one more step for them to earn. Thus, they would get 2% and 1 step. You will be able to determine this from the last digits of the Position Code compared to the salary schedules. For those who are not eligible for a step, then just give them the 2%. Phase II:Cost Impact Analysis per person/per job/per work calendar year (proposed) using the Recommended Structure exactly as is (no need to consider 1% or anything else. If we need to talk on Monday, | should be in all day. If you need to talk now, Call me on my cell. Have a good weekend. DCSS-E&Y-007892 Hi Steve, Based on the information that | will receive Monday, | would like for you to run a Cost Impact Analysis for me. | would like to share that information with our CFO and my Deputy Superintendent. | realize that this will not include the few new jobs that have been created under Dr. Lewis’ administration. Thanks! Reanee Reanee N.

Thank you so much for that information. | will not share it with anyone else, however. What we are really waiting for is the Cost Impact Analysis by person/by position/by work calendar year. That means that you will have to slot all of the employees in the appropriate pay grade and step. To find the appropriate step, | would think that you would be looking at the step on the Recommended Structure that is closest to the current salary without being a deduction, So, | presume that the larger spreadsheet that you will send me will have the following columns (Unless ‘you think otherwise and please feel free to advise me on this one): Last and First Name Current Job Title Recommended Job Title Department Name Annual Salary Curent Workdays Current Schedule and Step Proposed Work Days Proposed Grade Proposed Step Proposed Salary Below Mimimum ‘Above Maximum Cost to Move to Proposed Structure Also, the larger the print size, the better ‘Then, | would predict that you would send me an overall summary of the cost to implement the Recommended Structure, Let me know if you need anything more. | know that this is supposed to be ready by 6.11.04, So | am available to help in any way that you need me to. Also, Dr. Brown was pleased with the proposed schedule. Jim, the only thing that | left out in Total Rewards, is Supplements. Please don't forget about that. Reanee N. Ivey, Ph.0.

Let's go with Structure |, As | understand it, that is 2.5 incremental increase for each step up to Step 10 and then an alternate increase of 0% and 2.5% for every step thereafter through Step 16. | would love to have the Cost Impact Analysis as outlined on page 1 really soon Ihave attached the Status Report (draft) that | have shared with Dr. Brown. We really need to expedite as much as possible on the document. All that can be accomplished before the August 3rd meeting with the Board is REALLY needed. When | look at it, it seems to me that we could probably get pages 1-2 done rather easily and quickly. | will commit to working on the Comp Philosphy. Things might be a little easier now that the teachers and students are out of school. But feel free to go beyond page 2 to identify actions that can be completed prior to August 3rd. We won't mind completing some things ahead of schedule. Oh well, that is about all for now. Let me know what you need from me on this end and have a fantastic Memorial Day. Reanee N.

Emst & Young LLP DCSS-E&Y-007904 Reanee, have sent you the costing analysis file based on the structure chosen by the project guidance team. This costing is based on the cost involved in bringing all individuals at DCSS to the next highest step within the proposed grade structure. If individuals made exactly the same as a particular step within that grade (this happened with a few people), they remained in that step, so that there would be no increase. You may need to discuss the latter situation with the PGT, since it would be inequitable to not provide a pay increase to incumbents only because their pay happened to coincide with a step. As before, the costing also takes into account, the changed workdays (based on the proposed workday structure). ‘We received your input on the job specifications and are incorporating your comments, Thanks!

Ernst & Young LLP DCSS-E&Y-007905 Reanee, Please find attached the costing analysis. This costing is based on the cost involved in bringing all individuals at DCSS to their next step within the proposed grade structure. As agreed with you, all individuals were moved to their next higher step, instead of moving them to the step they are closest to. As a result of this the bring to step numbers are considerably higher than bring to minimum numbers (please reference my email on 06/08 for more details on this). If individuals made exactly the same as a particular step within that grade (this happened with a few people), they remained in that step, so that there would be no increase.

This costing is based on the cost involved in bringing all individuals at DCSS to their next step within the proposed grade structure. As agreed with you, all individuals were moved to their next higher step, instead of moving them to the step they are closest to. As a result of this the bring to step numbers are considerably higher than bring to minimum numbers (please reference my email on 06/08 for more details on this). If individuals made exactly the same as a particular step within that grade (this happened with a few people), they remained in that step, so that there would be no increase. You may need to discuss the latter situation with the PGT, since it would be inequitable to not provide a pay increase to incumbents only because their pay happened to coincide with a step. ‘As before, the costing also takes into account, the changed workdays (based on the proposed workday structure), Thanks!

Also, those things that are optional (*) are for more detailed analyses that we discussed at a high level in our meeting(s). They would only be required should DCSS feel the analyses would be beneficial as a part of the study ‘Some of the more typical description/documentation we include in our project documentation manual include the following sections (for project explanation): Project Objectives and Worksteps Compensation Philosophy and Strategy Communications Position Analysis (Methodology) External Analysis (Qutcome) Salary Grades and Ranges Job Hierarchy and Target Pay Range Assignment Impact of Salary Structure Benefits Analysis (Methodology and Outcome) Implementation and the Ongoing Maintenance of the Compensation, Benefits and Classification Program In addition to these more explanatory sections, we include all project analyses/reports (most of these reports are directly impacted by/linked to the employee database - to explain why having “clean” data is so important): Key Discovery Points Current Pay Analysis Current State Assessment Survey Sources Market Detail Reports Market Comparison Report Market Summary Report Proposed Salary Structure(s) Job Value Matrix Report by Grade and Department Costing Analyses (E&Y can recommend several implementation scenarios that will directly impact these analyses) This is only to give you an idea of what kinds of things we typically include - and it can vary by client as to the specific information required. We also included sample reports in the initial proposal. If you would like additional report examples to assist in your process, we are happy to provide them to you. Thanks again and if you need any further information, you have our numbers!

Dr. Johnny Brown has approved the first script for our use to introduce DCSS to the possibility that a Compensation and Classification Study may be conducted in our school system. | say, MAY, because all of this is contingent upon Board approval and we must always be ever so mindful of that In any event, Dr. Brown would like for the focus groups to be conducted in your individual schools.

You will note that reference is made to the organizational chart. While | have attached the starter organizational chart, | did not have a copy of the current organizational chart to send to you via é-mail. So, we are making copies of the current chart and the starter chart. We will send each of you 100 sets along with another copy of the script. Expect the packets in about a week. That will give me time to contact each of your principals to advise them that we would like for you to have 30 minutes to conduct the focus groups sessions with your respective staffs. Please don't initiate any efforts to present the materials until you receive the packets from me. | just want to make sure that each person has the materials and I have made contact with all of the involved principals.

Quite a few of the jobs got pushed down one pay grade but we think that we need some additional information. Here are our thoughts: 1. The three versions of the Recommended Structure were very helpful. Thank you very much. | think that you might want to revise the header to use the word "step" in the places where the word grade appears. But | could be wrong. Please check. 2. Dr. Brown would like the same three Recommended Structures run this way: Using 2.9%; Using 2.8%; Using 2.7%; Using 2.5 --Inslead of 3%. 3. Also, all three Recommended Structures were annualized to 247 days. Is it possible to have #2 above created as requested but run in different versions to annualize them using all of the existing work year calendars. The problem that Dean brought up was that we were making some decisions about where to move people who might work 10 months based on a 12 month recommended structure. hope that this makes sense. fit does not, please feel free to call me. | will be at my desk all day except between 11:30 and 1:00 EST when we go to lunch. P'S. Jeff, Ihave the input back on the job descriptions (except for Pam's. She was out of town. As soon as she gets out of her 8:30 meeting, she will give me her thoughts and | will share the information with you) Reanee N.

Emst & Young LLP DCSS-E&Y-007994 Good Morning All, Don't forget that we have our meeting with E&Y on Monday between 2-5 in the large conference room. E&Y will be soliciting responses from us relative to the questions found on the attachments. So | am sending you another copy of your homework, We will also be discussing the timeline and roles and responsibilities with E&Y during this meeting Just want to make sure that you are prepared. | will, however, have copies of the timeline and questions available for you when you arrive at the meeting, Have a fantastic weekend while you do your homework!!! DCSS-E&Y-007995 FYI. The total number of employees listed above the maximum salary for their positions is 2,552 amounting to an annual amount of $14,811,683 above the maximum. Of these totals 2,194 (86%) or $12,301,251 (83%) are local school employees with an additional 141 (6%) or $1,208,630 (8%) from Support Services providing direct school support while housed at Dept. 734 & 735. These Support Services positions include Social Workers, Psychologists, Spec. Ed. Teachers and Spec. Ed. Paras. Therefore only 217 (8%) of the total 2,552 above maximum are central support personnel with a cost of $1,301,801 (9%) of the total $14,811,683. Another interesting fact is that the 217 central support personnel over the maximum represents just over 10% of the total employees in this category, ie. 90% of central support personnel are UNDER the maximum.

Dannie Reed does not directly supervise Mr, Rees but has had oversight responsibility for the functions in this school district and in another schoo! district. Dannie has indicated that he supports Mr. Rees opinion as indicated below. Please consider the comments (objectively) as you review the materials that we have provided to you and give us the best recommendation based on the market and any other information that you may have available Thank you Reanee Recently the Fleet Services department completed and submitted Position Description Questionairs (PDQ's). | would like to address an existing compensation enhancement that did not appear to be clearly addressed in the PDQ and one that | do not wish to see overlooked. Presently there is a provision for mechanics to receive an additional step increase if they obtain a "Master ASE" certificate. This amounts to an additional 3 % pay increase, The mechanic pay schedule presently ends at step 48. With the Master level ASE certificate the mechanic can go to step 49 and he receives an immediate one step increase. This is an important incentive and I did not want it to get lost in the Earnst and Young study. | would like to address another issue that needs correcting. | have a mechanic who has Master ASE certification and was recently promoted to a Lead Mechanic. A Lead Mechanic can only go to step 51 on his salary schedule. As | mentioned in the above paragraph a mechanic goes to step 48 on his pay schedule but with Master ASE Certification he can go to step 49. If a mechanic who does not have Master ASE certification is promoted to a Lead Mechanic he has the ability to rise another 3 steps to step 51, but if the mechanic had Master ASE Certification and is promoted to a Lead Mechanic position he would only be able to rise 2 steps because he could already go to step 49 as a mechanic. It seems to me he should be allowed to go to step 52 so that he does not lose recognition of his Master ASE Certification. If this is confusing then | apologize but | have a situation like this right now. The man was a mechanic, a good mechanic, he had his Master ASE Certification. We promoted him to a Lead Mechanic, | would like to see him able to go to step 52 or whatever the equivalent would be following the study by Eamst and Young Please call me at ext. 61385 should you care to discuss this further or to point me in the right direction to have this matter looked at officially. | appreciate any support you can give me on this issue as well DCSS-E&Y-007998 ~Kerry Rees, Fleet Services Director Sam A.

Ethnicity Code Legend: B-Black |-American Indian M-Multi-racial O-Asian S-Hispanic W-White X -Other 2. Birthdays- Wallette pulled a sampling of files on the employees over 75. Their driver's license confirmed that the age on the report is correct. We thought it was interesting that our oldest employee is an 87 year old sub who was scheduled to work 3 days this week and has a glowing evaluation dated 5/2003. She must really love children! We made corrections on TERMS for the following birthdates: Teresa Morrow SEE DOB MINN 959-Age 44 Ann Crain eye Age 57 Sharon Robinson OB MEN 1965-Age 38 Helen Farmer a: (HMM 936- Age 67 The 16 and 17 year old employees on the list are DCSS students who were authorized to work part-time. 3. The request for a vacancy list may be a challenge. Judy and | have discussed the best way to get this data. Gwen and Diane, the position control coordinators, are working on updating the allotment screen so that we can identify vacancies. This is not ready. If the goal is to find job titles that were not covered in the report sent to Est & Young so they can be reviewed, we could possibly run a query of all job titles reported to Ernst & Young vs. all job titles. If this is acceptable, we'll proceed in that direction. If not, Judy suggested that we talk to Vicki Sorrells when she returns on Monday to see if she has a list of vacancies approved from her budget reports.

I am forwarding the communication to you so that you can review it before our meeting on Thursday of this week. For those of you who will not be able to attend the meeting, I really would like to talk with each one of you individually before Thursday so that you can weigh in with your thoughts on the two vendors Here are my concerns: Relative to the Hay Group: Ms. Leslie Schneider, former project manager, has been released from her duty. Mr. C.J, Bolster, has informed me that he will be taking over the project management side of things. As you may recall, Mr. Bolster is the Vice President, General Manager for the Southest Region for Hay Relative to Emst & Young: For the original scope of work; For the best and lowest price; For the revised scope of work, the prices offered stayed in the 325,000 to 382,000 range. Thus, my inquiry to Ernst & Young that generated the response from Ernst & Young below. Tam asking that you consider these factors, the results of the reference checks that should be coming to you via courier today and any other questions that you might have about the two vendors prior to the meeting, That way, we should be able to expedite our consideration process, look forward to seeing you on Thursday or talking to you before that date if you will be unable to attend the meeting, Thank you in advance for your continued assistance with this project. Dr. Ivey, have spoken with Jim regarding your request for pricing clarification, and as a result we want to make sure you have the information you need for your meeting on Thursday. Therefore, below | have outlined the proposed project budget to review the project steps and associated costs: In December 2002 we had the opportunity to meet and review our proposal and estimated fees which were: -- Parts 182 (Certified and Administrative Positions and Classified Positions) -- Fees ‘$225,000 -250,000 Part 3 (Appeals Process) -- Fees $50,000 -865,000 ~ Part 4 (Support Structures) --- Fees $55,000 - $67,000 Thus, the total estimated fees were $330,000 -$382,000 DCSS-E&Y-008029 During our discussions in our December meeting we indicated, in good faith, that we could cap the fees for all four Parts at $370,000. Furthermore, we will make every effort as is customary to manage our costs and deliver to you our project “under budget.” ‘We (Jim and Jennifer) responded on February 18, 2003, to your request for (re-) pricing structure relative to a revised scope of classification and compensation study (see below). We delineated our key activities, deliverables, benefits and timing based on the questions/statements posed. We essentially "unbundled" the proposal so that DCSS could essentially see where the fees and time were and provide further opportunity for us to "negotiate" if necessary and modify our proposal, For example, in Item 6 regarding the comprehensive compensation survey, we have made assumptions for reviewing 13,000 Position Descriptions, conducting approximately interviews for 10% of DCSS unique jobs and conducting a special survey of 160-170 jobs with 30 targeted comparators. The fees for this particular Item 6 is $147,000. Furthermore, we provided options if we can/should or do reduce the scope and thereby reduce the fees, Our total fees for the revised (February 18, 2003) budget for all four Parts was $341, 200 —- an 11% reduction of our original fees. Today, we recognize that there are real budget concerns facing DCSS. In the spirit of partnering with DCSS and moving forward together on this extremely important project, Ernst &Young will cap the project for all four Parts at $325,000. This fee is based on the revised budget submitted on February 18, 2003. This fee quote of $325,000 represents an approximate 5% adjustment to the $341,200, and a 15% reduction in fees from our original "high end” fee quote of $382,000. We hope DCSS views this as a very positive step by E&Y to recognize the constraints under which DCSS currently operating and the investment E&Y wants to make to this important and valued client engagement opportunity. | look forward to hearing from you and are availble to answer any questions at your convenience, Best regards, Carl Alper Associate Director Human Capital Emst Young LLP ‘Telephone: 404-017-5196 Fae 4048174911 cal: 404-409-2779 EvComm: 7422573 ‘To learn more about ou services: ey comhumancaplal The information contained in this message may be privileged and confidential and protected from disclosure.

Dr. Lewis would like for me to facilitate a meeting with you, Bill and Jim as soon as possible. Perhaps the ‘14th visit would be a good time. Our desire is to dialogue about the data analysis process that was undertaken to determine the proposed salary ranges; positons that were determined to exceed the ‘maximum or fall below the minimum; survey sources etc. As Jim is probably aware, our school system has faced numerous media inquiries regarding the "above the maximum” amount that was quoted during our Board meeting on April 1, 2004. Hopefully, through the requested dialogue, we will all have a better understanding of the data and how it was obtained; how it has been interpreted by E&Y as well as DCSS; and how we can proceed with next steps. | ook forward to hearing from you very soon, Reanee N.

However, we must balance the inclusion of additional sections with the length of the survey. There also may be a section(s) you choose to delete or alter for some reason.

Although the PGT asked for the use of the blocking format, | agree with Jeff that it adds no value and takes up more space. 7. I like the way E&Y provided the Estimated Percentage of Time in Range format as requested by the PGT. 8. I would bold the Knowledge, Skill, and Ability (KSA) sections. | would also use full sentences in these sections. 9. Instead of Physical Activities/Requirements, | would use Performance Factors as a Section header and add the Performance Factors that appear on page 3 of the job description to all job descriptions (as appropriate), also have some syntax and semantic suggestions that | would include here.

This email regards the job description template, We will, send a separate email on the latest structure and costing, We are sending a draft ofa revised job description template, We were trying to accommodate all ofthe requests you made in the fax you sent Jim, while stil keeping the document easy for you to manage inthe future and in keeping with generally acceptable standards across world-class ‘organizations. Here are a few points to note 1. The fax that was sent to us made conflicting requests regarding terminology around the percentage of time spent on each duty. On page At, it asked for “Approximate” and on page B1 it asked for "Estimated’. We used "Estimated" 2, We went to a block format for you, although we want to point out that this has significant disadvantages, Specifically it makes the document much more dificult for you to format and manage in the future; aiso, it restricts the area available for use on each page and makes the document unnecessarily lengthier. For this reason, we did not also include a colurmn in the block for "duty number’, as this is very uncommon in a job ‘description, provides no added value, and limits the usable space on the age even further. 3, The KSAs from the PQs have been included and are specifically labeled ‘as knowledge, skills, and ablities under the qualifications section ‘While this format does not repeat the words "Skil in" or "Knowledge in muitiple times as on page AZ, they are clearly separated into these ‘categories and come directly from the PDQ. Repeating those words, as ‘displayed on page A2, Is very uncommon, lengthens the document, and Provides no added clanty or value 4, From the contracts section that was faxed, we added a field into the header to capture the contract terms, We had removed ths from the ‘original template because one job wil often have multiple contract ‘schedules, such as a psychologist. However, we've added the feld as you requested and will simply fit with all possible contract term ‘combinations fora given job. FLSA status is captured in the header, ‘experience is captured "Education and Experience" section; reporting felationships are all captured in the header forthe job’s superior, and in the "supervision" section forthe job's subordinates, All other requests should be reflected here, PLEASE review and provide ‘your approvalichanges so that we may begin the process of revising all ‘descriptions.

So, as you can see, the second highest available ranking official would be available to meet with us that day if it works for a majority of us. Please advise me as to your availability to spend the afternoon at the Hay Group's Atlanta office on January 22, 2003.

Steve did call (I was running a few minutes late) but he indicated that someone named Bill would also be on the line, according to Lorraine. | walked in while they were talking and our attorney was on another line for me. | told Lorraine to tell Steve that | would call him back when | got off the phone and low and behold, he called four more times on my direct line while | was on the line with the attorney even afler Lorraine told him that | was speaking with the attorney and would get back to him, Needless to say, that did not go over well with your friend, Reanee.

Please feel to call me in the office if necessary, 1. Team Likes Position Specifications rather than Job Description as a header. 2. Team thinks that the job title needs to be large and outside the block for ease in location 3. In block (left side)--If E&Y sees value in assigning position code numbers for classification purposes only, you can enter the number on the first ine. Otherwise, leave that area off. We will allow Dean and Carl to have their own distinct numbering schematics for payroll purposes. Actually, the team did not think that there was a need for the Position Code but | am not wholly sure what E&Y has in mind. If there is no need for it, let Department be the first line in the block (left. 4, On block to right, re: Contract Terms....we want the work days and the type of schedule~either System-wide Salary Schedule or Certified/Degree Salary Schedule. | am working with Nisha now to firm Up which jobs will be on which schedule. ‘We moved Supervisory Responsibilities up higher since that is very important to us. 5. While we put Essential Functions and Secondary Functions (we prefer the term functions) in the block format, if you can format it better without it but with the corresponding Estimated Frequency section adjacent to the appropriate functions, | would be more than willing to entertain that possibilty. really dont like the blank space across from Secondary Functions but I did not know how to fix it, 6.

Thanks for the kind emails and calls. It really ‘means alot, and tt makes us that much more motivated to do a great job for you. We're emailing our latest drat ofthe JVM slotting, There are a few things to note as you look at it 1. We revised the structure ina couple of ways. First, we removed the lowest 5 grades because no one was slotted below a grade 15, We also needed to accommodate the Project Guidance Team's wish for a hierarchy which has a one-grade difference in the progression from High School Principal to Elementary School Assistant Principal. So, the tab marked "Structure" shows the updated version of the structure. 2, The other tab marked "JVM results’ shows where each slotted job was finally placed. Also, any job title change is shown in bold, Again, the ‘grade for each job is based on the revised structure. When you look at ‘what grade something is sloted in, you need to refer to the new structure. Jobs highlighted in yellow are jobs that do not currently exis thatthe reviewer mentioned needing to be created going forward (only Dekalb has the ‘authority to ereate any new jobs) We recommend that you do NOT email this out to anyone. it may be best to hold @ meeting with the Project Guidance Team in which you distribute the information in hard copy only, discuss it, and collet it back after a discussion, Once people have it electronically, they can send it anywhere. ‘Once you've had time to review it, we need to have a call with our team here and you.

Did you run a salary check on all of the jobs to ensure that they properly fit into the pay grades that have been established for the comesponding jobs? 7. Alice Thompson replaced Felicia Mithcell (118) 8. Sterling Thomas is the Executive Assistant to the Chief Academic Officer 9. Regina Fletcher is the Executive Assistant to the Senior Advisor to the Superintendent (this was correct on the other draft that you sent) 40. Karen Barron (not Cameron Barro) is in (801) 11.

Wendolyn Boule as Reading Coordinator was replaced by Robert L. King. 15. JJM. Wood-Shuffett (603) should be Director, School Safety 16.(1211) Should be Coordinator, Food Service 17.

Lisa Herring replaced Dottie Toney and should be added as Coordinator of Counseling 22. Mac Dorton should also be listed as Coordinator, TERMS. We could not find him anywhere 23, It looks as though Head Coundesiors are in the same pay grade as Assistant Principals. Please remember that the Project Guidance Team did not want any jobs at the school to fall above the APS. 24. (1260) & (1251.1) was moved to 22 but Marcia King (1250) whom | advised was at the same level as (1260 & 1251.1) got moved to 19.

Colleen Ezzo (268)is to be placed on the same grade as Special Ed. Lead Teachers. | thought that was 22 but she is in 21. Why? DCSS-E&Y-008174 34. | thought that the Instructional Specialists were to be placed in 22. | can't locate them there or anywhere else, actually 35. (€27) Director, Technical Theatre was renamed Lead Teacher, Technical Theatre during JVM. Please refer to my earlier notes (both sets) 36. If Cynthia Evans is a Lead Teacher (270), should she be in 227 37. Jim Williams has two Reform Specialists who should be slotted in the Lead Teacher pagy grade. 38. Jim Williams has two Targeted Assistance Specialists (Renee Conner and Mary McArthur) who ‘should be slotted in the Lead Teacher pay grade, 39. Itinerant Teacher CSR should be changed to Itinerant Teacher Support Specialist (ck 2.10.04 notes) 40. (1007.3) should be Mobility & Orientataion Specialist (delete slash and enter ampersand) 41. Prevention Intervention Specialists should be on the teacher pay schedule, | can't find them, 42. Where are the RVI teachers? Can't find them. Treat them as you would other teachers relative to pay grade 42. (634, 280.3, 280.5, 280.6) should be called GRIP/POINTS Intervention Specialist. Please check to ensure that the Prevention Intervention Specialists are not lumped in any of these groups. 43, Mrs. Pickard told us that (914,1, 914.2, 9214.3, 942, 273) should be called Library/Media Specialist 44,( 1007.2) should be Mobility & Orientation Specialist.

Please advise. 48. | could not locate the Help Desk Specialist at Fembank who should now be called the Network Specialist 49. | could not locate the Registrar | position 50. The bar graph was helpful. However, it shows that SLPS, Assistive Technology Specialists, Physical ‘Therapist will make more than APs. Again, we did not want that 51, When can we get a print out with all of the names of all of the incumbents in the respective pay grades. Itis somewhat difficult to check this without having that, Okay, | think that this covers all that Clarence and I found today. | look forward to talking to all of you at 4:00 pam Reanee N.

We have not been very successful. So we stopped and I think that we might need to prepare for a lengthy conversation at two. That is why | am going to have a hearty lunch in a few minutes. Here are a few things that | did have time to find if this will help any. 1, Relative to Specialist Ezzo being placed with lead teachers. | don't see any lead teachers in 22 but | do see Cynthia Evans, lead teacher in 19. 2. yes, the Scheduler at Fernbank is comparable to Secretary Il and needs to be placed in the appropriate pay grade 3. I don't know who the Asst. Director for Fembank got placed in 16 given that the chip was for an Asst. Director albeit the discussion was about a Coordinator. It was probably meant to be 26 and perhaps 16 got written on the chip. 4, During JVM we did discuss the fact that there are two Instructional Coordinators in MIS and that Ed wants all to be Instructional Speciailist and through education, Kitty will smooth the waters to make sure that the two Instructional Coordinators do not view the name change as a demotion. 5. We did talk about the Targeted Assistance Specialist and Reform Specialist in Jim Williams’ department. Chips were made for these jobs and they were to be slotted with lead teachers, 6. Steve Pemberton is the Coordinator in Research and Eval. and Dr. Melvin Johnson recommended Director Status, 8, Statistician should be in your files. Try 790990 9. We discussed Itinerant teachers in Professional Development with Dr. Crawford Lewis. Try 332626 or 238, 9. For Coordinator of Records, try 770300 or 2862.2 10. For help desk specialist Fembank try, 170600. Also, | don't remember slotting Scientific Librarian and Museum Curator at Fembank. Did we? 11. Coordinator, Transportation Supervisor. Try 1141. The person is Dave Carter. AAs is relates to Coordinator of Federal and State Support Programs. There is only one person. Patti Menich. There are two Coordinators of Federal and State Programs. The former works under Garry McGiboney's supervison. The latter two work under Virginia Davis' supervision. | am sure that you will discuss the distinctions that we made when we were discussing this with Gary. ‘That is all that | have had time to deal with. | will talk with you about the rest at 2:00, Reanee N.

The May bill had been prepared by E&Y in accordance to the contract but | had a “hold” put on it until | had a chance to review our financials with respect to the budget. As you might imagine we have exceeded our budget on certain aspects (e.g, re-formatting job descriptions, extensive costing reporting/scenarios) of this engagement -—- it is my job (and | get either praise or "heat" on how | do --- praise feels much better) to make sure we do our work in such a way that there is “high client satisfaction" and we have been cost effective in delivering our services. | am committed to making sure that DCSS receives the "best of our services” by our/your team ----and though | have to be diligent as you know with respect to the budget | know you also appreciate we are making every effort to go "the extra mile" (as we should ) in serving you. In any event, | need to bill $20,000 for May to "turn down the heat” and have payment by end of June (closing of our books). Without trying to explain our accounting (which is not easy believe me) | have to account for $57,300 which is sitting in “inventory” right now —- and that's the "heat". So | propose the following May '04 $20,000 June '04 through December '04 monthly statement for $6,000 January '05 a final statement for $6,150 The total payments for this time period is $68, 150 which added to the $272,850 paid to E&Y to date by DCSS would total contract amount of $341,000. Does this seem fair from your perspective? Please let me know —— | will assume it is okay and have the May bill prepared. | am here today if you have a few minutes to discuss this and/or other matters.

Also, we would like for the persons who will be responsible for the crosswalk of data to interface with our PATS and TERMS systems to plan to spend a large part of the afternoon with Mr. Clarence Ellis (MIS) and Dr. Dean Grant (Human Resources) and appropriate staff in order to receive the necessary updates.

But Carl and | thought that it was important for you to know what came up. ‘The busdriver said that busdrivers are asked to make phone calls to parents and mail letters to parents regarding referrals. He said that the busdrivers have been told to do this on their own time without compensation, He further said that busdrivers have been told not to use their home phones because parents with Caller 1D could get the numbers. Thus, the busdrivers would have to use a pay phone (additional expense). Perhaps they could use phones at the schools but some principals will not allow this. ‘Well, clearly this would be a violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act and | know that you are up on that law. So, Carl and | thought that it would be best to share this with you in the event that some District Managers may or may not have conveyed the aforementioned message to busdrivers...so that things can get cleared up, if necessary Overall, the meeting was very positive and quite productive.

So please do all that you can to attend. | know that some of you have indicated prior commitments. However, if there is anyway that you can be there, it would be most helpful since we will be deciding on the benchmark jobs; comparator markets/peer groups, etc. If] can get appropriate approval, we would also like to hold the employee forums that evening since E&Y willbe in town.

Dr. Lewis would like for me to facilitate a meeting with you, Bill and Jim as soon as possible. Perhaps the 114th visit would be a good time. Our desire is to dialogue about the data analysis process that was Undertaken to determine the proposed salary ranges; positons that were determined to exceed the maximum or fall below the minimum; survey sources etc. As Jim is probably aware, our school system has faced numerous media inquiries regarding the “above the maximum” amount that was quoted during our Board meeting on April 1, 2004. Hopefully, through the requested dialogue, we will all have a better understanding of the data and how it was obtained; how it has been interpreted by E&Y as well as DCSS; and how we can proceed with next steps. | look forward to hearing from you very soon, Reanee N.

If the two of you are unable to complete the discussion on the 29th, the same time slot has been allotted for continued discussion on September 30, 2003.

It was a very positive and productive meeting, One special education teacher (MOID) raised a concern that | could not address. However, | did tell her that | would confer with you today to get an answer. ‘The teacher said that she works in a middle school. She said that she does have a paraprofessional.

She says that it takes both her and the para to provide constant care to the students all the time, \Velinda, | am not familiar enough with DCSS's special education procedures to address rather this situation is the norm or an anomoly.

She wanted to know why the business education teachers had to teach one additional clas. She said that the core teachrs have 4 classes and she has more.

The answer is, the Cabinet-level administrator with oversight for the departmentidivision can determine who will review the PDQs if it will be someone other than the administrator who received the PDQs. ‘The second question is, "Can the PDQs be picked up at schools and sent back to Support Services’ thought that | previously answered this question but | apologize if | did not do a good job. If the people are assigned to schools, the employee can get a PDQ from the school or you can e-mail it to them as per my earlier e-mail. The employee can return the PDQs to their principals. To assist us in better Understanding the jobs, | wll talk with Mrs. Bailey and Dr. McGioney about the possibilty of the Coordinators of the respective disciplines completing a template PDQ that we can send to Emst & Young Last question is "Can you send Lodus Schriener her pre-printed forms and PDQs?" | think that is a great idea.

Alarge meeting area. This is for persons who will come in and say that they do not understand the document at all. The area should just have chairs (perhaps lke a theatre style row set up). The ProCorps members will stand before the group and give instructions. It would be very helpful if a microphone could be made available as well as a podium. If that is not available, we will make due. 2. Right outside that room, should be two or three student desks with a chair for each desk. Other ProCorps members will sit at these stations. They will address questions posed by persons who walk up with just one or two questions, It will also be helpful if @ row of chairs could be placed in front of these stations so that the employees who come to receive the assistance will have some place to sit. 3. Iwill take the PDQ Technical Assistance signs with me to the Administrators Meeting today. Please look for me so that | can give them to you. 4, Please make sure that someone in the office knows where the PDQ TA Site is located in the building so that employees can be directed to the area with litle problem. It would be helpful if a sign could be placed in the front area of the building to direct employees to the designated area once again thank you for your assistance.

Reanee Nisha.Rai@ey.com writes: Reanee, | have just started doing the analysis, but it occurred to me after our conversation today that if we are placing incumbents in the next step above their current grade, the bring to step costs are going to be substantial (much higher than the bring to minimum costs). | remember telling you on Friday that | didn't expect the numbers to be much higher, but | had not assumed then that we would be putting individuals in the next higher steps. Even if we assume a 30 cent increase er hour ( which is what the average increase seems to be)...considering the number of hours in the year and the 6500 incumbents in the study. and add to that the changed workday calendar which adds to costs..that number could likely add up to $3-4 million. Of course, considering that the total payroll for these incumbents is around $200 milion, that is only around 2% of payroll, so that might not be that high a number for pay increases in 2005. ‘We will know the exact numbers only after the analysis is complete, but | just wanted to give you a heads up on this. The potential costs of the recommendations will be an important point of discussion once we have the costing numbers.

Why is the DCSS spending over $300,000 for this study when the state is already facing staggering budget cuts, and the schools need to comply with the No Child Left Behind Act?

Sincerely, Shaina Amienyi Send instant messages to anyone on your contact list with MSN Messenger 6.0. Try it now FREE! Shaina, | am pleased to respond to your inquiries as presented above. | have presented those inquires and my corresponding responses below: Q1: What made the DeKalb County Board decide that pay structure and job descriptions need to be changed? ‘At: Best practices in the industry of compensation and classification studies indicates that compensation and classification structures should be reviewed at least once every five years. The last time a comprehensive compensation and classification study was conducted in the DeKalb County School System was in 1988, Q2; What affect will that have on school administrators and teachers? ‘A2: Given that we do not have the results of the study at this time, | am unable to offer an informed response to this inquiry. Q3: Why is the DCSS spending over $300,000 for this study when the state is already facing staggering budget cuts, and the schools need to comply with No Child Left Behind Act? ‘3: One componenent of No Child Left Behind calls for the availability of accurate and appropriate job descriptions for all employees. At present, we do not have job descriptions for all of our positions. There are also some positions for which no job descriptions exist. As it relates to cost, $341,000.00 of the study is an extremely nominal cost for a study of this scope. Generally, studies of this scope in an organization of this size cost upwards of a million dollars. Please feel free to conduct research in the metro-Atlanta area, relative to the recency of similar studies conducted in surrounding metro school districts. | am aware of at least two other school districts that conducted a similar study last year and one that is in the process of doing so at this time. As previously stated, in order to provide the best service to an organization's DCSS-E&Y-008329 human capital (personnel), organizations are advised that compensation and classification structures should be reviewed every five years, at least, That is certainly a critical element of any retention and recruitment plan, Q4: Will teachers and administrators have to sign their contract without knowing the pay structure? Will they have to sign a contract without their actual salary on it? ‘A4: Actually, teachers and administrators sign their contracts every year without any guarantee of a particular pay structure. This study is not designed to eliminate or create jobs. There is not a plan to adjust any salaries downwards. Each year, teachers and administrators sign contracts that bear their current salaries, not any proposed salaries. Q5: Why are there no teachers or lower level administrators on the Project Guidance Team? ‘AS: Actually, teachers, administrators and representatives or al ofthe job classifications serve on the Project Guidance Team. Through the assigned members, information, ideas, reactions are obtained and brought back to the Project Guidance Team for consideration. Employee Focus Groups were widely held during the 2002-2008 school year. Information obtained from those focus groups was incorporated into the operational plan of the Study. Members of ProCorps have had key involvement in the provision of information. This study in DCSS has probably provided more opportunities for employee input than most others. ‘Thank you for taking the time to pose these inquiries.

She must really love children! ‘We made corrections on TERMS for the following birthdates: Teresa Morrow I DOB BNI 1959-Age 44 Ann Crain i DOB 11946-Age 57 Sharon Robineon SO 5 ME 965-Age 38 Helen Farmer DOB MINN 936- Age 67 The 16 and 17 year old employees on the list are DCSS students who were authorized to work part-time 3. The request for a vacancy list may be a challenge. Judy and | have discussed the best way to get this data. Gwen and Diane, the position control coordinators, are working on updating the allotment screen so that we can identify vacancies. This is not ready. If the goal is to find job titles that were not covered in the report sent to Ernst & Young so they can be reviewed, we could possibly run a query of all job titles reported to Ernst & Young vs. all job titles. If this is acceptable, we'll proceed in that direction. If not, Judy suggested that we talk to Vicki Sorrells when she returns on Monday to see if she has a list of vacancies approved from her budget reports.
