Explanation
Background:
This legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Neighborhoods to enter into a beneficiary grant agreement with United Way of Central Ohio in the amount not to exceed $126,680.00 to support the implementation of the One Linden Schools Initiative (OLSI) at Hamilton STEM Academy and Windsor STEM Academy.
OLSI utilizes the Community Collaboration Model (CCM), an evidence-based model developed by leaders at the Community and Youth Collaborative Institute at the College of Social Work at the Ohio State University, to directly engage students, parents, guardians, and educators at the two schools.
OLSI priorities are grounded in the five components of the CCM: academic learning, community partnerships, health/social services, parent/family engagement/support, and youth development/school climate. The initiative’s priorities align with the One Linden Plan Support Student Success Big Idea.
Fiscal Impact: The fiscal impact associated with the beneficiary grant is up to $126,680.00 to come from the General Fund.
Emergency Justification: Emergency action is requested in order to avoid any delay in providing the resources necessary to the United Way of Central Ohio for the One Linden Schools Initiative to be fully prepared and ready for the 2023/2024 school year.
