School Innovations & Achievement Agreement.Fiscal_22-25.pdf
Summary: The District would like to continue to retain the services of School Innovations & Achievement to assist with the mandated reimbursement process. When the California State Legislature passes a law, or the Governor or a state agency issues an executive order or regulation that constitutes a new program or higher level of service, California law requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for increased costs. This requirement was first established in 1972 with the passage of Senate Bill (SB) 90. With the approval of Proposition 4 in 1979, California voters further obligated the state to the requirement by adding Article XIII B, Section 6 to the California Constitution. The Agreement requires a subvention of funds to reimburse local agencies and school districts for costs associated with mandates. The process guiding mandate determination and the ensuing subvention of funds has evolved over the years since the enactment of SB 90. In recent years, School Innovations & Achievement has successfully provided services for the District's mandated costs. These services can include submittal, review, and follow-up of test claims, update of claiming instructions, claims submittal, and incorrect reduction claim submittal.

The term of this Agreement shall be for three (3) years from July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2025.
Funding: The cost for this item will be included in the 2022-23, 2023-24, and 2024-25 operating budgets funded through the General Fund.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve the Multi-Year Agreement with School Innovations & Achievement for mandated costs services.
