B6.20 - Approve the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) Between The School Board of Hillsborough County, Florida (HCPS) and Tampa Metropolitan Area YMCA Success After School (YMCA) for the Implementation and Operation of Before School, After School, and Summer Programs (Academic Support and Federal Programs)

The purpose of the MOA is to establish an agreement between HCPS and YMCA concerning their respective roles and responsibilities.  The HCPS and YMCA have partnered to provide school-age care since 1981.  For 37 years, the strength of this collaboration has ensured quality care for students and families in our community.  This one-year MOA is in effect for the purpose of serving students from August 12, 2019, and, if necessary, through the summer 2020 programming.

The YMCA supports several projects within the district other than providing before, after, and summer school programs.  HCPS agrees to modify the standard rate calculated using the “Facilities Usage and Rental Fee Agreement.”

* Engage and communicate with families and stakeholders, * Establish a strong foundation of financial stewardship, * Demonstrate "best practices" in all aspects of safety: student, employee, visitor, facility, transportation, and health
