EXECUTIVE SUMMARY | |
The Full Service School Programs at Just and Sanchez Full Service School Centers have developed and implemented a strategic planning process to improve services for families and students in the East and West Tampa communities. Community residents, agency staff members, and educators have been involved in this process. The goal has been to develop effective working relationships with select community partners who will support family self-sufficiency and student performance. Decisions have been made based on several identified school and community needs to co-locate select agency partners at the Just and Sanchez Full Service School Centers.
This agreement is for the remainder of 2013/2014 and for the 2014/2015 school year, and has been approved by Attorney Tom Gonzalez. The agreement describes the working relationship between the Full Service School Centers, families, educators, and Crisis Center of Tampa Bay, Inc. for select families. These services will include case management, economic assistance and budget classes. |
