On June 27, 2023, the Fort Worth Independent School District (FWISD) Board of Trustees approved
the City of Fort Worth as a Full -Service Provider with Fort Worth After School for the 2023-

funds based on actual expenditures, not budgeted amounts. The City will submit monthly invoices to
FWISD for reimbursement. No advanced funding will be provided. Up to 10 percent in administrative
