Startup Activities
- We are pleased to report that the CSP Grant process continues to move forward. The Minority and Women Owned Business Enterprise (MWBE) requirements have been successfully completed, and we received the grant contract on Friday. While there are still several administrative steps that must be finalized in addition to signing the contract, we are nearing the point at which we will be able to access and begin utilizing the grant funds. These resources will support a number of important startup and operational needs as we continue preparing for the upcoming school year.
- We are also excited to share that the lease for our new campus space has been officially signed. The administration conducted a walkthrough of the facility to assess immediate needs and begin planning improvements. Discussions focused on painting, facility enhancements, and other housekeeping projects necessary to ensure the campus is welcoming, attractive, and ready to serve students and families.
L. Rojas made a motion to Change the physical address of American Dream Charter School Two to the new address, which is 421 West 219th Street.
P. Simon seconded the motion.
The board VOTED unanimously to approve the motion.
