On September 10, 2012, the School Board adopted the budget for fiscal year 2012-2013. As the fiscal year

revenues to more accurately reflect revenues; increases or decreases in appropriations to more accurately
reflect estimated expenditures for schools, departments, and projects to make changes to their budgets in order
to better utilize finds. These amendments facilitate District operations to occur in a positive manner.
These amendments properly reflect the estimated revenue and appropriations. The amendments show the
estimated revenue and appropriations for each fund and provide a description of the amendments.

The Okaloosa County School District, Okaloosa County, Florida, employs two CHOICE instructors who
are Apple Certified Trainers. In order for the schools in which the instructors teach to maintain their
current Apple Authorized Training Center status, we must maintain an Apple Authorized Training
Center Agreement with Apple. At no cost to the Okaloosa County School District, Okaloosa County,
Florida, being an Apple Authorized Training Center allows the CHOICE programs to deliver Apple's
official, professional, and authorized applications curriculum by Apple Certified Trainers to the
students of the Okaloosa County School District, Okaloosa County, Florida. Maintaining this Apple
Authorized Training Center Agreement also allows the Okaloosa County School District, Okaloosa
County, Florida, to purchase certification exam vouchers at a lower rate because the exams are
delivered by Certified Apple Trainers. This Agreement ensures our students are receiving the highest
level of instruction by Apple certified and professional instructors.

Included in Proposed Fiscal
Year 2013-2014 Budget
Recommended Action : Approval
Public Content
In fiscal year 2011-2012, the School Board approved allocating an Assistant Principal II - 10-Month position to
elementary schools, whose Unweighted FTE was 800 or greater. In fiscal year 2012-2013 the School Board
expanded the Assistant Principal – District Funded Appropriation to include an Assistant Principal II – 12-month
position to the High Schools and Baker School.
For fiscal year 2013-2014, the District recommends modifying the eligibility requirement for elementary schools from
800 to 700 unweighted FTE. The modification is recommended to provide administrative relief, as a result of the
Florida Legislature introducing into law a new teacher evaluation system. The new evaluation system requires
multiple classroom observations per teacher. Elementary schools only have one administrator to handle all school
operations, and with the passage of the new evaluation system it has become virtually impossible for one
administrator to comply with all of the new evaluation requirements and manage the daily operations of a large
elementary school.
The expansion of the Assistant Principal II allocation was included in the proposed School Budget Manual distributed
on May 9, 2013 to School Principals and School Board Members. However, since the Proposed School Budget
Manual will not be approved until the adoption of the Preliminary and Tentative Budget in late July, the district is
requesting approval in order for schools to have sufficient time to interview and select the best candidate for their
school.
