Item Title
C-30 2008-2009 Title X Education for Homeless Children and Youth Program Grant

Issue/Rationale
SBCC must identify and serve all homeless school-age children by attempting to eliminate barriers to receiving a free and appropriate public education.  The grant funding supplements school district funding to ensure that homeless children and youths have equal access to the same free, appropriate public education as provided to other children and youth in Clay County.

Recommended Action
Approve the 2008-2009 Title X Education for Homeless Children and Youth Program Grant as submitted.

Financial Impact
SBCC is requesting $82,000.00 for the 2008-2009 school year based on 2007-2008 grant funding.  However, notice to the district Superintendent will reflect the actual allocation amount for 2008-2009.
