PRESENTATION  
10.A.  
ROE Budget Presentation  
Amber Quirk, Regional Superintendent, presented the Regional Office of Education's  
(ROE) FY2025 budget to the Finance Committee. Ms. Quirk reviewed the Illinois State  
Board of Education required services as well as the additional value-added services  
provided by the ROE. In FY2024, about $1.2 million dollars were allocated to the ROE  
out of the County's $625 million dollar budget. For FY2025, the ROE is requesting  
additional funds for full-time salaries, due to restructuring as well as alignment with  
County titles and salaries. The ROE is also requesting $250 thousand dollars for a  
work-based learning initiative. Ms. Quirk highlighted the numerous benefits of this  
program for students, businesses, and the economy. GPS Educational Partners is the main  
strategic partner utilized by the ROE to assist with carrying out the work-based learning  
program. As the community and various stakeholders experience the value in work-based  
learning programs, the ROE's goal is to receive financial commitments from these outside  
parties in order to lessen the funding request from the County in future fiscal years.
