The proposed scope of work outlined in the agreement builds upon these achievements and seeks to expand the outreach efforts within the facilities owned and operated by The School Board of Broward County, Florida. The scope of work for consulting services is submitted to provide the delivery of environmental programs and facility improvements within the Broward County school system.
