This is an amendment to the original contract.  The original contract was for a three-year period (2017-2020) which involves dual enrollment/CTE courses offered by this institution at some of our high schools. The purpose of the amendment is to extend the contract through 2020-21 school year, an increase in costs ($25,530 to $26,529) due to a increase in CAPE certificates, and Embry-Riddle added two more high school courses. 

This program has been a beneficial program to the District as it provides Dual Enrollment to our students.

This positive working relationship with ERAU benefits the students of Clay County by allowing them to earn both college credits and high school credits.  These particular courses allow students to move towards a degree and industry certificates.

Clay students will continue to provide college-level courses on the high school sites.  It is expected that the total number of students in this program will increase from the current year to the next school year.

Goal 1:  Develop a High Quality & Aligned Instructional System

Strategy 1.3:  Prepare all students to be full option graduates who are prepared for college, eligible to enlist in military services, or able to compete in the workforce.  

That the Clay County School Board approve the amendment to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University agreement.
