DISCUSSION: The Fort Worth Crime Control and Prevention District plan and budget includes $1.4 million for the provision of After School Programs at elementary or middle schools. Of this amount, $1.1 million is allocated to the Fort Worth Independent School District (FWISD), and $300,000 to the Crowley, Everman, Keller and White Settlement ISDs for their schools located within the corporate city limits of Fort Worth. On October 10, 2000 (M&C C-18286), the City Council authorized entering into agreements with the other ISDs to operate After School Programs. Annually, this agreement has been extended upon approval and allocation of funds in the Crime Control and Prevention District budget. Meetings are conducted prior to the beginning of the school year with school representatives and service providers. During the meeting held in July 2002, all schools indicated that they would conduct After School Programs during School Year 2002-2003. Subsequently, the Everman ISD notified the City that it would not be renewing the contract this year. Everman's program had been offered at the middle school, and had minimal attendance. This action results in $50,000 being available for the other ISDs. These additional funds will be allocated evenly to the Crowley and Keller ISDs in the amount of $25,000 each. All other terms of the agreements will remain the same. The schools served by these agreements are located in COUNCIL DISTRICTS 4 and 6.
