Agenda Text
We request the Board to review and approve the attached $127,050.00 FY2024-25 contract with the Durham Public Schools Foundation for the Bull City Community Schools Project, and to authorize the County Manager to execute said contract. The Bull City Community Schools partnership began in the spring of 2017, when a group of Durham educators traveled to an institute with the National Education Association (NEA) to learn about the six-pillar model of community schools. Those pillars include high-quality teaching, positive behavior practice, strong and proven curriculum, family and community partnerships, community support services, and inclusive leadership. This year's funding request represents a 13.15% decrease from fiscal year 2024.
Alignment with Strategic Plan: Empowered Community- empowering the community to enhance their opportunities to thrive.
Resource Persons: Cris Rivera, Director of Finance and Operations Durham Public Schools Foundation.
County Manager’s Recommendation: The County Manager recommends that the Board review and approve the attached $127,050.00 FY2024-25 contract with Durham Public Schools Foundation for the Bull City Community Schools Project.
