VIII. Action Items
VIII.A. Recommendation to Approve Females of Color STEAM Academy Program for 2020-21 School Year
Rationale

In the American psyche, young Black and Brown girls are often inaccurately typecast as threatening, pitiful, angry, and broken due to hardship. The creation of a Females of Color Academy program with a planned STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) focus, seeks to move beyond stereotypes and untruths that saturate certain provinces of American culture, and create new opportunities for young women to grow and thrive as scholars and leaders. 

For the 2020-21 school year, Superintendent Pollio and the Board, seek to usher in a new program. This school program is based on the belief that high expectations, gender-centeredness, Afrocentricity, and innovation could dispel, disrupt, and redirect understanding on what is needed in order to ensure equity and excellence for females of color. 

It is clear, based on research and the lived experiences of females of color that Black girls and White girls have the same cognitive capacity, yet outcomes and opportunities vastly differ. The Females of Color Academy will build upon the lessons learned in starting the DuBois Academy, with adjustments to take into account the particular needs of young women of color, to create new opportunities and better outcomes for the students in the school.

This potential approval and creation of a STEAM Academy that aims to reach and teach females of color will be innovative and inclusive. It will demonstrate that young women of color when placed in culturally responsive environments can and will thrive. After the approval of the program, central office and school staff will fervently commence ensuring that the disproportionately that plagues all urban school districts is interrupted. 

A summary of the proposed Females of Color Steam Academy Program for approval by the Board is attached.

X.Q. Recommendation for Approval of Indirect Cost Rates for Fiscal Year 2019-2020
Rationale

Indirect costs are expenditures in support of programs that are not directly identifiable to that program. The Kentucky Department of Education calculates the allowable percentage that may be applied to grants so the District may be reimbursed for a portion of the support expenses incurred.

For fiscal year 2019-2020, the non-restricted indirect cost rate to be applied to food service will be 15.00 percent and the restricted indirect cost rate of 3.51 percent is for use with grants. Each local board of education is encouraged to approve the rates prior to October 1, which is the beginning of the federal fiscal year.

If the rate is not approved by October 1, the District cannot apply the rate at a later time during the fiscal year. If the Board adopts the rates, they are not obligated to apply the indirect cost rates.

During fiscal year 2018-19, the non-restricted indirect cost rate was 14.02 percent and the restricted indirect cost rate was 3.25 percent.

This item supports Vision 2020 strategy 3.1.4 Ensure responsible stewardship of resources.
