SUMMARY
The City provides robust educational support services to HUSD students and families through its Library Services department. Since 2011, the City has consistently received funding from HUSD to share costs for Family Education Program services. The total cost to operate said services is $40,000 per school, with HUSD and the Library sharing the cost. The City leverages federal, state, and local special revenue funding to support the costs of programming.
Some of the tutoring services at the HSCs will be provided by California State University, East Bay (CSUEB) students participating in the College Corps program. CSUEB will be providing $21,000 in funding over the 2022-2023 school year (in two payments of $10,500) to support this program. Staff requests Council authorization to execute the MOUS and to accept and appropriate up to $101,000 in the Local Grants Fund (240) from HUSD and CSUEB for FY 2023. With Council approval, staff will appropriate the funding into the Library Department’s Education Services budget and provide services per the terms and conditions of the agreements with HUSD and CSUEB.
