Title: Recommendation: Description: This Highridge Family Center residential program provides educational services for up to seventy-two (72) disciplinary and truant male and female youths between the ages of 11 and 15. The goal of these additional educational services is to provide a remedial instruction program and opportunity for credit award. This is the fourth year for offering the summer school/extended school year opportunity to "at risk" students at this facility. Last summer, thirty-six (36) high school students were able to receive 1.0 additional credit toward graduation and twenty-three (23) middle school students took classes that enabled them to meet pupil progression standards for promotion to the next grade level. The Highridge Family Center/Board of County Commissioners will provide to the School District a lump sum of approximately $18,223 to fund four (4) teachers, one (1) para professional, utilities and supplies for Monday through Friday in June and for four (4) Fridays in July, plus a .5 administrator for June and July. The School District will provide the funding for three (3) teachers, one (1) para professional, utilities and supplies for Monday through Thursday in July.
