-
For FY 2003 actuals, some measures show a decline due to three staff
vacancies during the year.
-
In FY 2004 actual, the increase in number of youth is due to greater
access to students in classrooms for presentations and testing. Greater access
is expected to continue as permitted on an individual school basis. Shifts in
school priorities influence access to students and the delivery of prevention
services.
- During the FY 2004
school year, SOL schedules significantly diminished access to students for prevention
group sessions.
- The numbers of
classroom presentations were not tracked prior to FY 2003.
