Open Agenda
Approve the Continuation Agreement between SBBC and NAF. The contract period is December 1, 2013 through November 30, 2014.
On April 29, 2008, the School Board approved a new membership agreement with NAF to support the District's Academy of Finance, Academy of Information Technology, and Academy of Hospitality and Tourism Programs. SBBC has maintained an agreement with NAF since 1985.
The District currently has Academies of Finance at Boyd Anderson, Cooper City, Coral Glades, Cypress Bay, Deerfield Beach, Dillard, Flanagan, Northeast, Plantation, Piper, Stoneman Douglas, Taravella and Western High Schools; Academies of Hospitality and Tourism at Plantation and South Broward High Schools; and Academies of Information Technology at Atlantic Technical Center, Blanche Ely, and Northeast High Schools.
The NAF annual membership fee is $875 per Academy, per school. The services provided, as part of the membership fee, include access to the online curriculum and instructional materials, funding for District and school staff to attend the annual countrywide NAF Summer Institute for Staff Development, technical assistance and support to schools by the NAF staff assigned to Broward County, and scholarship opportunities for students. The District's affiliation with NAF is cost effective and increases program delivery efficiency. The financial and non-financial benefits to the District exceed the membership fee.
This Agreement has been reviewed and approved as to form and legal content by the Office of the General Counsel.
There is a financial impact of $15,750 to the District. The source of the funds is the Carl Perkins Secondary Grant. There is no additional financial impact to the District.
