7.1.A. - Page 1 <br /> REPORT <br /> To the Honorable Mayor and City Council <br /> From the City Manager <br /> August 25, 2014 <br /> SUBJECT <br /> 2014-2015 After School Program Services Agreements between the City of Redwood <br /> City and the Redwood City School District <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> Approve, by motion, and authorize the City Manager or designee to execute the 2014- <br /> 2015 Extended Day Academic and Enrichment Services Agreement between the City <br /> and the Redwood City School District. <br /> BACKGROUND <br /> The Parks, Recreation and Community Services (PROS) Department, in partnership <br /> with the Redwood City School District (District), operates After School Learning <br /> Centers, directly on school campuses to over 1 ,000 children in Redwood City and the <br /> North Fair Oaks Area each year. The City has been a partner with the District for the <br /> past 16 years serving those children who have been specifically identified needing <br /> academic support and/or who would benefit from social and recreational enrichment <br /> programs. For the 2014-2015 School Year, we have been assigned the following <br /> schools: Fair Oaks, Selby Lane, Henry Ford, Hoover, Hawes and John Gill. Services <br /> include after school tutoring, recreation and enrichment programming such as life skills <br /> and family education opportunities. The majority of funding for the programs comes <br /> from After School Education and Safety Program (ASES) State and 21st Century <br /> Community Learning Federal grants managed by the District. <br /> The City provides an after school program Coordinator on each site, and maintains a <br /> 1:15 ratio of Youth Development Leaders to children. The City also works with many <br /> other partners to provide quality activities and educational experiences. Program <br /> partners include: Redwood City 2020, Redwood City Family Centers, Hidden Villa, <br /> Tutorworks, YMCA, Stanford University, John Gardner Center, Police Activities League, <br /> Sheriffs Activities League, Boys and Girls Club, and others. <br /> The agreement includes the "BASE" (school day) funding as well as the <br /> "SUPPLEMENTAL" (non-school day) funding. The combined funding totals will allow <br /> the City to receive a not-to-exceed amount of $858,937 based on anticipated <br /> attendance reimbursement. <br /> Page 1 of 3 <br />
