Quick Summary / Abstract
Approve the second round of agreements for Supplemental Educational Service providers required under No Child Left Behind (NCLB).

There are currently 107 State-approved vendors who are eligible to offer SES services in Broward County and have expressed an interest.

The current agreements are for the following providers: 1. PS Youth Outreach Center, Inc., 2. Communities in Schools of Broward County, Inc., 3. The Hampton Educational Services Group, 4. Bright Futures Learning Inc., 5. KLC Pembroke, Inc., 6. Chancellor Supplemental Educational Services, LLC, 7. Jay’s Learning Center 1, Inc., 8. The Community Learning Center, 9. Kidz Youth, Inc., 10. A+ Scoring High Tutoring, Inc., 11. Envision America, Inc., 12. Learn-It Systems, LLC, 13. The Juvenile Transition Center, Inc., 14. Lockhart’s Learning Center Inc., 15. Empowerment Tutoring, LLC, 16. A Plus Educational Corp., 17. New Life After School Program, Inc., 18. PICTURE ME LEARNING INC, 19. STAR LEARNING, L.L.C., 20. TRIUNFO “TRIUMPH” ACADEMY LLC, 21. Downtown Computer Services, Inc., 22. Rayfield Family Literacy Inc., 23. Next Level Educational Program, LLC, 24. Education Advantage!, LLC, 25. Huntington Learning Centers, Inc.

Vendors can receive up to $1,405 per pupil for student tutoring services.  This is equal to the per pupil appropriation given the District under the Title I program. Based on the required Title I set aside for SES, it is anticipated that 6,423 students can potentially be served in the 2008-09 school year.  There will be additional contracts coming forward this year due to subsequent enrollment opportunities for parents.  The attached timeline provides an overview of the process employed for the new school year.

All agreements have been approved as to form and legal content by the School Board Attorney.

Copies of the full agreements are available at the public stand in the lobby of the K. C. Wright Building, and at the Board Members’ Office on the 14th Floor of the K. C. Wright Building.

The financial impact for this initiative is up to $1,405 per approximately 6,423 students. The source of funds is the District’s Title I SES set aside which has recently been revised by the state to $9,024,695. There is no additional financial impact to the district.
