Summary:
|
The District provides supervision and oversight as the chartering agency for the California Military Institute (CMI). The previous Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) expires on August 31, 2018 and therefore needs to be renewed for the term of September 1, 2018 though August 31, 2023. An MOU is necessary in order to establish the costs and obligations associated with charter supervision and oversight, administrative services, and other direct costs and services.
As oversight agency for CMI, the District is responsible for carrying out a number of general and fiscal oversight responsibilities, including but not limited to those listed in Education Code Section 47604.32, as well as any tasks or responsibilities associated with the establishment, renewal, or revocation of the charter. Supervision and oversight fees include, but are not limited to, fiscal and instructional oversight, personnel policies, and other general oversight, including that of the District's officers and that of the Governing Board of the District. The District also provides CMI with a rent free facility. The fee established for oversight agency services and a rent free facility is 3 percent of CMI’s revenue.
Pursuant to Education Code Section 47613, subdivision (c), a charter school may purchase administrative and other services from the chartering authority. The District provides CMI appropriate and necessary services for program operations and management including business operations, insurance and risk management, personnel services and instructional services. These costs consist of administrative activities necessary for the general operation of the agency, such as accounting, budgeting, payroll preparation, insurance and risk management, personnel services, instructional services, purchasing, and centralized data processing. The fee for providing these services is established to be 7 percent of CMI’s actual annual expenditures.
The total fee of 10 percent - 3 percent of revenue and 7 percent of expenditures - are for those costs that cannot be identified as directly relating to CMI versus other schools within the District. As such, a flat rate as a percentage of revenue or expenditures is established due to the inability of these services to be billed to and/or reimbursed by CMI to the District. However, CMI continues to be responsible for all other costs not specifically addressed within this MOU.
Direct costs directly identifiable with the day-to-day operation of CMI will be directly charged to CMI. Direct charges are costs that provide measurable, direct benefits to CMI’s program including costs that relate directly to instructional programs and also support costs that relate to the peripheral services necessary to maintain the instructional programs. Salaries and benefits of CMI’s staff, including the Principal who is an employee of the District, payments for textbooks, instructional supply purchases, equipment purchases, and pupil service costs such as counseling and health services will be directly charged to CMI.
