BACKGROUND:
Many families within the northern region of San Mateo County are immigrants and their children are English Language Learners (ELL). Additional academic support for ELL is beneficial to elementary and middle school youth, helping them acquire English, so they can achieve grade level proficiency in Common Core standards which integrate the use of English in all subjects. Furthermore, the Human Services Agency (HSA) has identified the need for comprehensive out-of-school Science, Technology, Engineering and Math programs in the northern region of San Mateo County.
Daly City Peninsula Partnership Collaborative (DCPPC) leverages funding provided by HSA with funding from fee-based programs, four school districts, and Silicon Valley Community Foundation to support after school academic programs, pre-kindergarten programs, and community events that serve Daly City and South San Francisco youth and their families.
DISCUSSION:
This agreement with DCPPC will provide academic and social support services to youth in northern San Mateo County to promote literacy and student well-being. The educational services provided through this agreement will be tailored to meet the needs of the student populations at elementary and middle school sites located in Brisbane, Daly City, and South San Francisco. DCPPC will serve 20 school sites through this agreement for youth in grades ranging from kindergarten through 8th grade. DCPPC will work with school principles to plan their afterschool programs. In addition, DCPPC will plan, coordinate, direct, supervise, and evaluate the specific activities of the Daly City Partnership at the assigned school sites for pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. These activities will include tutoring, homework assistance, and enrichment classes.
DCPPC has been providing academic support services in San Mateo County since 1995. DCPPC is the only agency that provides onsite afterschool programs to the 20 schools served under this agreement and therefore should be considered a single source. For this reason, HSA is recommending the Board waive the Request for Proposal process.
The resolution contains the County’s standard provisions allowing amendment of the County’s fiscal obligation by a maximum of $25,000 (in aggregate).
County Counsel has reviewed and approved the agreement and resolution as to form.
This agreement will provide academic aftercare school programs to 1,400 unduplicated children in FY 2020-21; 1,425 unduplicated children in FY 2021-22; and 1,450 unduplicated children in FY 2022-23. It is anticipated for FY 2021-22 that 65% of students enrolled in academic program(s) will receive a rating by teachers of "improved" or "much improved" in academic areas, based on the scale: (1) No change, (2) Improved; or (3) Much Improved. These measures are expected to increase to 70% and 75% in FY 2021-22 and FY 2022-23 respectively.
