School Innovations & Achievement- A2A Services Agreement - 5 Yr.pdf
Summary: The District would like to enter into a new contract with School Innovation & Achievement (SI&A) for their Attention2Attendance (A2A) software program to improve the monitoring, tracking and identification of students who are demonstrating poor attendance. A2A is an attendance software program that generates letters and meeting notices for students who are chronically truant or have excessive unexcused absences. These notices are automatically generated on a monthly basis to parents who have children demonstrating poor attendance. Additionally, A2A will monitor students once they are placed on attendance contracts with District personnel in order to determine and evaluate if District interventions are able to improve student attendance.

The annual cost of the Agreement is $71,600 for each school year under the term.

The total cost per year for the District will be $64,654.80. The total cost per year for the California Military Institute (CMI) will be $6,945.20 based on enrollment, which will be billed as a direct cost to CMI per the Memorandum of Understanding between the District and CMI.

The term of this Agreement shall be July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2025.

This item is being brought forth as a ratification due to budget uncertainties that existed as a result of the State Budget not having been signed by the Governor until June 29, 2020.
Funding: The cost for this item is included in the 2020-21 operating budget funded through Local Control Accountability Plan Supplemental and Concentration Funds and the Charter School Fund, not the General Fund.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the Board of Trustees ratify the Software and Services Agreement with School Innovations & Achievement, Incorporated for student attendance monitoring.
