Agenda Item #26 Item Title C-31 Renew Contractual Agreement between School District of Clay County and Challenge Enterprises of North Florida, Inc. to serve Birth - 3 year old PreK students for school year August 1, 2006 to May 31, 2007 (Revised) Issue/Rationale This Contractual Agreement between the School District of Clay County and Challenge Enterprises of North Florida, Inc. (Lighthouse Learning Center) for school year August 1, 2006 to May 31, 2007 will enable the School District of Clay County to serve the low-incidence eligible ESE preschool population at an existing non-public school site with certified TMH/PMH, OT/PT, S/L personnel. The site, Lighthouse Learning Center, is recognized as in compliance with SBR 6A-6.0361, FAC, and is monitored by the ESE Director and Designee. This Contractual Agreement has continued for several years and has proved very successful for identified TMH/PMH Autistic and Developmentally Delayed ESE preschoolers and their families. To serve the low incidence population of Trainable and Profoundly Mentally Handicapped eligible preschoolers, the School District of Clay County enters into a Contractual Agreement with Challenge Enterprises of North Florida, Inc., Lighthouse Learning Center, to provide programming for those eligible students on the Lighthouse Learning Center site. The School District of Clay County will pay Challenge Enterprises of North Florida, Inc. per each child and provide transportation for those educational services. School District of Clay County will also provide funding for supplies and therapy. This Agreement allows the School District of Clay County to serve eligible preschoolers of the low incidence population without the impact of additional buildings, equipment, and personnel.
Recommended Action The Superintendent recommends the approval of the Contractual Agreement between the School District of Clay County and Challenge Enterprises of North Florida, Inc., Lighthouse Learning Center for the 2006-2007 school year. Financial Impact The projected cost of implementing this Contractual Agreement is $90,000.00. This compares to the School District of Clay County providing the classes in a public school for an equal amount. Clay District Schools collect FEFP FTE and IDEA funds on each child.
