The School for Children will explore ways to include four-year-olds and would like permission to add one class of 14 four-year-olds when that becomes possible.
IT IS THE INTENT OF THIS PROPOSED CHARTER SCHOOL TO ACCEPT SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN UNDER THE FEDERAL LEGISLATION INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES EDUCATION ACT; THE STATE LEGISLATION CREECH BILL AS APPROPRIATE TO THE ADMISSIONS TO THE CHARTER SCHOOL. ALSO, OUR PROPOSED SCHOOL WILL ABIDE BY THE CHARTER SCHOOL LEGISLATION NCGS 1115C-238..29F(g)(5).
The School for Children will not discriminate against any student on the basis of ethnicity, national origin, gender, or disability. Except as otherwise provided by law or the mission of the school as set out in the charter, the school shall not limit admission to students on the basis of intellectual ability, measures of achievement or aptitude, athletic ability, disability, race, creed, gender, national origin, religion, or ancestry.
EXCEPTIONAL CHILDREN
The School for Children cannot predict how many Exceptional Children will apply and be admitted to The School. Estimates are found in the "Exceptional Children" form which is attached.
BUDGET PROJECTIONS
FIVE YEAR PLANNING BUDGET
Calculations for figuring State and Local Dollars for the School:
Exact figures for "State Funds Per Pupil Income" and "Local Funds Per Pupil Income" are based on figures received by telephone from the Durham Public Schools Finance Office and from the Department of Public Instruction's Office of Charter Schools. The base numbers were for the 2000-2001 fiscal year and have been increased by 5% for the 2002-2003 projections.
Year One (2002 - 2003)
---------------
Projected Income for 112 Children
State Funds base number = $4082.00 -
112 X 4082.00 = $457,184.00
Local Funds base number = $2408.00 -
112 X 2408.00 = $269,696.00
TOTAL Year One: $726,880.00
For planning purposes, State Funds and Local Funds were increased by 5% each year after Year One and multiplied by the number of projected children. The number of projected children and the base numbers for State and Local funds is shown for each projected school year on the Five-Year Planning Budget.
