Meeting : Feb 13, 2023 - Workshop Meeting Type : Action (Consent) Fiscal Impact : Yes Budgeted : No Recommended Action : Motion to approve the Contract Modification between the School Board of Okaloosa County and Northwest Florida State College for the 2023-2024 School Year Public Content The Collegiate High School at Northwest Florida State College ("CHS") is a high-performing charter school and has been since 2013. After receiving a $2 million grant from the Florida Department of Education to expand early career and technical education at the high school level, CHS added 50 seats in the 2022-2023 school year to establish a 9th grade Associate in Science (A.S.) pathway. The school would like to continue its expansion in the 2023-2024 school year to accommodate these students' progression to 10th grade and to expand 9th grade to include an Associate in Arts (A.A.) pathway. The State of Florida allows a high-performing charter school to increase its student enrollment once per school year to more than the capacity identified in its charter (Florida Statutes §1002.331(2)). Per the attached letter, beginning in the 2023-2024 school year, CHS will increase its enrollment capacity by 100 students, bringing maximum enrollment to 435. The letter states that CHS facilities will accommodate this expansion. Among the 100 additional seats, 50 will be designated for promotion of the current 9th grade students enrolled in the A.S. pathway to be promoted to the 10th grade; the remaining 50 will be added to 9th grade to create an A.A. pathway.
