Title
APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE CHARTER CONTRACT BETWEEN THE SCHOOL BOARD OF SARASOTA COUNTY, FLORIDA, AND GOODWILL ACADEMY
Description
Goodwill Academy is seeking this amendment to their charter contract to modify the age range of disabled students served from 17 to 22, to 16 to 22. Goodwill has struggled in its first year of existence to enroll adequate numbers of students to support the program and it is felt that this amendment might bolster enrollment by making the program available to more students. No other sections of the contract would be affected and the expanded age range will not cause the program to exceed its projected enrollment. There are no funding implications associated with this requested amendment.
Recommendation
#36-That the Amendment to the charter contract between the School Board of Sarasota County, Florida, and Goodwill Academy be approved as presented.
