Board approves MOU and short-term facility lease with Brockton Ford Charter School
Summary
Gateway Unified approved an oversight memorandum of understanding and a one-year facilities lease with Brockton Ford Charter School for additional classroom and office space beyond Prop 39 obligations.
The Gateway Unified board approved an oversight memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Brockton Ford Charter School and a related one-year facility lease for additional classroom and office space.
A district staff member described the MOU as covering oversight responsibilities "financial, instructional, through human resources," and said the facility-use agreement provides space beyond the Prop 39 requirement to serve students who attend the charter. The lease was described as covering about six additional classrooms and several offices; it includes terms for upkeep and an annual renewal opportunity.
Board members discussed coordination with the charter school's principal and expressed an interest in maintaining a positive working relationship during the transition. The board approved the MOU and the lease by voice vote; the record shows the motions passed but does not include a roll-call tally in the meeting transcript.
The district said the agreements are intended to support the charter petition renewal process and to allow the charter to rent space it needs while preserving district oversight obligations under law and the MOU.
