On September 9, 2019, the School Board adopted the budget for fiscal year 2019-2020. As the fiscal year progresses, we ask the

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.

Recommended Action : Motion to approve Teacher Salary
Increase Allocation Plan.
Public Content
House Bills 641 and 5001 created and funded a new categorical allocation within the Florida Education Finance Program (FEFP)
focused on increasing compensation for full-time classroom teachers, assisting school districts in their recruitment and retention of
classroom teachers and instructional personnel.
This investment in Florida's education system prioritizes 80% of the allocation for increasing full-time classroom teachers' and certified
prekindergarten teachers' minimum base salary to at least $47,500 or to the maximum achievable based on each district's allocation.
The remaining 20% of the allocation is dedicated to salary increases for full-time classroom and certified prekindergarten teachers who
did not receive an increase as part of the 80%; classroom teachers who did receive an increase from the 80% but their increase was
less than two percent of their salary; and other full-time instructional personnel pursuant to section 1012.01(2)(b)-(d), Florida Statutes
(student personnel services, librarians/media specialists, and other instructional staff).
House Bill 641 prevents these funds from being collectively bargained for other purposes, stating that, “the teacher salary increase
allocation must be used solely to comply with the requirements of this section.” The bill requires “a school district or charter
school” to maintain the new “minimum base salary achieved for classroom teachers” in subsequent fiscal years, unless
specifically changed in a future General Appropriations Act.
Before receiving funds, each school district and each public charter school must develop a salary distribution plan that clearly delineates
the planned distribution of funds. The plans must then be submitted to the district school board or the charter school governing body, as
appropriate, for approval. The district must submit its approved Salary Distribution Plan, along with the approved Salary Distribution

Recommended Action : Request approval to submit an
application to become a Florida
Postsecondary Comprehensive
Transition Program (FPCTP).
Public Content
In accordance with Florida statute 1004.6495, Okaloosa Technical College intends to become the site for Okaloosa County Schools'
Postsecondary Transition Program. This would be accomplished initially by applying and becoming certified as a Florida Postsecondary
Comprehensive Transition Program (FPCTP) by the Florida Center for Students with Unique Abilities (FCSUA). After formally obtaining
that designation, OTC would then complete the non-competitive grant application for up to $1.8 million dollars in grant funding for startup
and then enhancements, which would initially sustain this program. Eventually, through tuition, scholarships, and limitless available
financial aid funding sources, the program would become self-sustaining. To begin, no additional physical needs other than an available
classroom will be necessary. However, Okaloosa Technical College would seek to have a facility to promote postsecondary transition
goals for our school and Okaloosa County School District.
Okaloosa Unique Professionals is an opportunity for aspiring Unique Professionals to gain the skills, abilities, and training to move them from their
desires for success to gainful professional employment. Two specific programs are available to these students: Professional Culinary Arts and
Hospitality or Building Trades and Construction Design Technology. As students are selected and enroll, they will choose one of the two program
options to attend and participate in and alongside their non-disabled peers for half the day to gain the hands-on experience and training to become
certified and employable.
The other half of the day will be dedicated to a variety of supports (academic, social, emotional, and vocational) that will lead these students to success
in their program of study and eventually as employees. Students will be placed with a Transition Student Mentor (TSM) and a Transitional Trainer
Professional (TTP) while working in the labs and at job training sites. Transitional Student Mentors (TSM's) will be models and direct support to their
assigned students while working in the classroom, the lab and job sites. TSM's will apply for this scholarship option annually and meet regularly with
the TTP's and Instructors to incorporate plans and strategies to support their mentee. TTP's will also work alongside teams of students in each program
in the classroom, the lab, and at job sites in both a supervisory and support role.
For additional information please call Jeff Palmer, 850-833-4208.
