Discussion: Staff developed a plan for the grant application and presented it to the City's Governmental and Neighborhood Relations Committee on November 4, 2003 as an action item. The Committee approved the plan. Forty afterschool and summer programs will be developed or enhanced with the funding. 33ecause of the limited planning time and extensive reporting, monitoring and school-based evaluation requirements, City and FWISD-based programs, such as Fort 1rYorth After School, that could serve the student target market were chosen for funding. The programs will include, at a minimum, an academics-based curriculum linked to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills requirements, acharacter/citizenship educational component, and a plan for parental andlor mentor involvement. TEA requires that programs must be offered at na cost to the children participating. Parks and Community Services Department and the FWISD collaborated to develop the implementation plan that encourages coordination of services to reach the maximum number of eligible students during the spring semester and summer. Extensive training of program staff will ensure quality programming. All FWISD locations will begin serving students no later than January 2004. Some school and community center locations will have both afterschoo! programming and summer programming. Locations where children will be served and the amounts allocated to each location are on the attached sheet. The Texas School Safety Center will conduct school safety audits and reviews on campuses and in school districts designated by TEA. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Finance Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations, receipt of the grant, and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Grants Fund.
