CCGI Agreement No. CG-096-17 Amendment #1.pdf
Summary: The District would like to enter into an Agreement with the Foundation for Community Colleges for the California College Guidance Initiative (CCGI). The California Colleges Guidance Initiative seeks to ensure that all 6th through 12th grade students in California have access to a systemic baseline of tools and information as they plan, prepare, and figure out how to pay for college. There are three key areas of concern that CCGI will address. The first concern is the lack of information that parents and families have regarding minimum eligibility requirements (A-G requirements) for a four year college entrance. The second concern is to establish a systematic way to track college preparation for students in college and career readiness. The final concern is to address the lack of success students are having entering community college at credit level classes. CCGI creates individual electronic college and career planning portfolios on www.CaliforniaColleges.edu for all students in partnership districts that are populated and updated with student college and career readiness data.

Calculation of the total number of students and total fee due for the District will be based on the California Basic Educational Data System (“CBEDS”) census data available on the effective date of this Agreement, and will be updated on an annual basis thereafter. The fee per student for grades 9-12 will be $2.75 per year. The fee per student for grades 6-8 will be $2.00 per year.

Education Codes 17604 and 17605: The Governing Board delegates the power to contract and purchase supplies, equipment and services.
Funding: The cost for this item is included in the 2018-19 operating budget funded through the Local Control and Accountability Plan, not the General Fund.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve the Agreement with the Foundation for Community Colleges for the California College Guidance Initiative.
