Quick Summary / Abstract
Approve the Continuation Agreement between The School Board of Broward County, Florida and the Young Men's Christian Association of Broward County, Florida, Inc. The contract period is August 1, 2013 through July 31, 2014.

The School Board of Broward County, Florida (SBBC) and Young Men?s Christian Association (YMCA) are in the fifth year of their five-year partnership with Riverland Elementary School. North Fork and Walker Elementary Schools are in their second year of their partnership to operate a 21st Century Community Learning Centers (CCLC) Program.  During the 2013-2014 school year, students at these schools will be provided afterschool enrichment and remediation learning activities that will compliment and enhance the school day with reading, mathematics and science curriculum.  Engaging, non-traditional, project-based learning activities for personal enrichment will be implemented in the areas of:  arts & music, health & wellness, fitness & sports, tutoring and mentoring.

A portion of the 21st CCLC funds will be used to hire an outside evaluator to conduct an ongoing formative evaluation.  This data will be used by the school and YMCA to ensure the program's compliance with its objectives.

This agreement is being brought before the Board at this time, as the SBBC was notified by the FLDOE of its official award of the grant on October 15, 2013.  This is the first Board meeting for which we could bring this agreement forward.

This agreement has been reviewed and approved as to form and legal content by the Office of the General Counsel.

The financial impact to the District is $308,196.  The source of funds is the 21st. CCLC Grant.  There is no additional financial impact to the District.
