15. ACCEPT TITLE II AND I-D GRANT FUNDS FROM THE ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION FOR THE JUVENILE DETENTION EDUCATION PROGRAM Accept $642,479.18 in Title I-D and $4,572.91 in Title II FY2023 grant funds from the Arizona Department of Education for the juvenile detention education program. The term of this grant funding is 7/1/2022 through 7/1/2023. The purpose of these grants is to provide prevention and intervention programs for children and youth who are neglected, delinquent, or at-risk and to support effective instruction to increase student achievement. These grants help fulfill mandated services to educate children in the County’s juvenile detention center. There are no matching or ongoing cash contribution requirements; and this award is non-competitive, legislative, and formulaic. Although the School Superintendent’s Office has an approved FY2024 indirect cost rate of 1.43% (equating to $9,252.84 in calculated indirect costs), indirect costs will not be charged because the Office will be passing the grant monies on to the accommodation school through which the detention education program operates. There are no costs that will need to be absorbed by the MCSSO’s operating budget. As a result of this funding and pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17106(B), approve an adjustment to the FY2024 County School Superintendent (D370) Schools Grants Fund (715) Operating (OPER) revenues and expenditures budget in the amount of $647,052. Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore, expenditures of these revenues are not prohibited by the budget law. This action does not alter the budget constraining the expenditures of local revenues duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. (C-37-24-022-X-00)
