Board reviews after‑school contract and extended‑learning services; district outlines program scope and cost per student
Summary
District staff described the scope and cost structure of the extended‑learning after‑school contract (UAI), saying the program provides homework assistance, tutoring, teacher‑led academic activities, morning supervision and academy days, and that per‑student costs vary by site.
District staff briefed the board on after‑school and extended‑learning services provided under the contract identified in the agenda (UAI). The presentation described multiple program elements, slot counts and per‑student costs.
Program scope: Omar Calleros, district staff, told the board the program includes HUB (homework assistance), tutoring, academic activities in math and reading, and teacher‑led extended learning at individual schools. Staff said the district offers a three‑day academy on days when school is not in session, morning supervision slots and standard after‑school instruction at participating campuses.
Costs and service levels: Staff said the contract funds 180 days of service during the school year, a morning program with about 451 slots, and an expanded academy offering (for non‑instruction days) with 166 placements across six schools. Calleros said the district pays about $12.99 per student for three hours of service at some sites; a board member asked for clarification about an $11,000,000 contract figure and requested an update on what the district is receiving for that amount.
Board requests: Board members asked for a written update detailing what the contract provides for the budgeted amount, how Title I and other funds are used, the number of teachers participating in after‑school academies and how program equity and expansion would be managed across schools. The board approved the consent item for the contract as part of the consent calendar; members requested future financial and program detail.
No programmatic change: The vote approved the consent item; board members requested follow‑up reporting on the contract deliverables and finances rather than making immediate program changes.
