Arts school initial plan did not include playground/turf installation. The school really needs it to improve parents/students satisfaction. The school requested it to be added. GOCA Properties will pay for installation. 3 quotes are provided.

The school has purchased the some big ticket purchases and out of abundance of caution needs board to ratify these purchases. Most of them are IT items and one is STEM supplies from Lead the Way Project. Even though this board allowed approval exception for such items within the budget limits, given that these are grant funded expenses, we ask the board to explicitly approve/ratify these purchases. Chromebooks and Laptops for $69,577.65 and $90,865.30 from CDW and another purchase of Smart TVs for $78,750 and more Chromebooks and computer cards for $32,045 from Howard. STEM supplies from Project Lead the Way in the amount of $65,416.50, which come as a package for school with the STEM program Project Lead the Way, that K8 teachers are being trained for.

Global Leadership Academy K-8 would like to apply for the 21st Century Community Learning Center of Global Leaders (21st CCLCGL) which will be a comprehensive after-school and summer program designed to serve 150 students in grades 3-8 at Global Leadership Academy, as well as their families. The school had this grant before and we have experience managing it. With many grants closing this year, we may not be able to provide a plethora of free after school tutoring and other academic enrichment opportunities to our students and families. The yearly budget of this program is $500,000.

CSP budgets are still being reviewed by the CSP office. We don't expect any issues with the budgets. In order to start the schools on time, we need to start ordering items for both schools. Attached are the CSP budgets that are being reviewed by the state with quotes.

GOCA High School is adding additional classrooms and offices for HS staff. As a result, Service Provider staff will be moving out of HS facility. HS is requesting to remove existing furniture from that space as well. The list of furniture that is no longer needed is attached with the initial purchase date and price. Of the seven years of useful life, most of the furniture on the list has about 50% remaining. Service Provider is willing to purchase the furniture from the school at 50% of it's original cost.

Lease agreement amendments.: 

GOCA Properties LLC is installing Turf and Playground at the Arts campus, which was not on the original plan. As the result, the lease will go up from 1715 to 1850 per student. Intercoastal Lease rate is currently at $1,500 per student. The construction of the building is underway and the school will move into part of the building in January. Also, turf and playground were installed in November of 2023. As a result, the rent lease will go up for 24-25 year to $1,700 per student, before increasing to over $2,000 per child in 25-26 and beyond once the building is fully complete. construction of the fields is underway at Grizzly campus and the lease will go up from 1350 to 1500 for 24-25 before going to 1700 in 25-26 and beyond. Board counsel prepared lease amendments.

Arts Campus lease agreement takes student Student FTE during 10 day count. Leases for other campuses take October count as basis for rent payment. In order to align all leases we suggest to approve this amendment to change Student FTE count to October count.
