Explanation
This legislation authorizes the Director of the Office of Education to modify contract number DL 007800 with the Center of Science and Industry (COSI), Ordinance number 0201-2004 which passed February 23, 2004. This contract provides funding for Capital Kids After School programming for sixth grade students from Beery Middle School. The program is a service for students of low income and moderate income working parents. This program is designed to give children a strong sense of self worth, academic ability and community responsibility.
The modification will change the date of the contract from February - December 2004 to January - June 2005.
A total of $28,450.00 has been encumbered from the Mayor's Charitable Trust Fund (224) in contract DL 007800. These funds are from private funds and have no impact on the general fund. These funds will still be used for the same programming only the time period will change in which this contract will take place. The contract would better serve fiscal year 2005 due to budget constraints in the Office of Education and COSI's ability to use other funding sources for 2004 programming.
