The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission authorize reading
interventions for students attending South Pointe Elementary School, North Beach
Elementary School, Biscayne Beach Elementary School, Miami Beach Fienberg-Fisher
K-8 Center, and Miami Beach Nautilus Middle School for in -school reading intervention
services to be conducted before, during or after school hours during the 2025-2026 school
year, and, thereafter, for each subsequent school year, subject to funding approval during
each fiscal year through the City's budgetary process.
BACKGROUNDtHISTORY
In January 2008, the City of Miami Beach entered into an Education Compact with Miami -
Dade County Public Schools to enhance learning opportunities for youth. The Compact
reflects the desire of the Miami Beach community to support excellence in the City's public
schools.
At the March 26, 2018, FCWPC meeting, staff was requested to begin negotiations to
allow for implementation of reading tutoring during and/or after -school at North Beach
Elementary, Miami Beach South Pointe Elementary, Miami Beach Fienberg Fisher K-8
Center, Biscayne Beach Elementary, and Miami Beach Nautilus Middle School.
On April 22, 2018, Resolution No. 2018-30259 (Exhibit A) approved reading interventions
during and/or after -school for students attending Miami Beach South Pointe Elementary
School, North Beach Elementary School, Biscayne Beach Elementary School, Miami

Docusign Envelope ID: D9BCCD14-4D78-4324-AD23-250E5C9875BD
Beach Fienberg-Fisher K-8 Center, and Miami Beach Nautilus Middle School, in an
amount not to exceed $50,000.
From inception, the Administration has partnered with local universities to recruit students
majoring in Education, Early Education, Reading/Literacy Education, and English. Today,
the initiative offers literacy reading support to approximately 175 struggling students at
each participating school.
ANALYSIS
To better serve students at the aforementioned schools and target specific academic
needs, the Administration requires the ability to implement reading interventions before,
during, and after school hours. Because Resolution No. 2018-30259 restricts these
interventions to only during, and/or after -school hours, this amendment is required to
expand this service.

by consolidating and strengthening literacy support at Miami Beach South Pointe
Elementary School, North Beach Elementary School, Biscayne Beach Elementary
School. Miami Beach Fienberg-Fisher K-8 Center, and Miami Beach Nautilus Middle
School. This action provides the administration with the flexibility to schedule essential
reading interventions before, during, or after school hours based on student need,
ensuring the program is more effective.
Furthermore, this continuity and expansion are achieved utilizing previously approved
funds in an amount not to exceed $50,000, representing a fiscally responsible Investment
in student success.

ANALYSIS
At the March 1, 2017, Commission meeting, a referral was made to the Finance and Citywide
Projects Comrnittee (FCWPC) to examine options that may be available to the City to provide
supplemental funding for enhancements and other support for public schools within the City's
geographical boundaries. A companion item was also referred to the Neighborhoods/Community
Affairs Corrinittee (NCAC), to hold a discussion regarding a govemance structure with respect to the
manner in which any such supplemental City funds to support public schools should be spent or
used. During the March 31, 2017 FCWPC meeting, members recommended the creation of a non-
profit charitable 501(c)(3) entity to raise funds for public education within the City. Resolution 2017-
30041 on October 18, 2017 was repealed at the February 14, 2018 Commission meeting (item C7W)
to allow for the utilization of One Miami Beach Inc. Nct-far-profit 5C1(C)(3) organization for the public
purpose of accepting charitable donations to be used for providing education enhancements to Miami
Beach Public Schools.
Staff received direction at the April 26, 2017 Comrnission meeting to survey members of the
community with children in a Miami Beach public school to determine what educational
enhancements were needed, and present the findings to the Finance and Citywide Projects
Committee (FCWPC). City administration developed and conducted an education enhancement
survey in May 2017 to gather input on potential enhancement; this preliminary survey received 374
community responses. Staff met with Miami Beach public school principals and district personnel in
July 2017 to identify additional enhancements for inclusion in the follow-up prioritization survey.
Between October 11, 2017 and November 13, 2017 adrriinistration conducted an Education
Enhancement Prioritization Survey as directed. Results from the survey were shared via LTC 562-
2017 in Noverriber 2017. At the March 13, 2018 FCWPC meeting, staff was directed to review
unfunded educational initiative projected costs with each school PTSA Executive Board to further
prioritize potential enhancements for each school (Attachment A).

Deal -Mr. Carvalho:
Pursuant to the above captioned Agreement. the C.ty currently orovdes funding for two(2) VPK classes,
being offered at Biscayne Elementary School and Fienberg Fisher K-8 Center (the VPK program)
At today's meeting of the City's Finarce and Citywide Projects Committee (the Committee), Committee

program for the fiscal year 2018-2019 budget. A final decision will not be made until the issue is
discussed by the Mayor and City Commission during the April 11, 2018 City Commission moeting;
however, in an abundance of caution, I wanted to place you on notice of the possibility that the VPK
program may not be funded for next year. If the decision is made by the City Commission to not fund the
VPK program for next year, the City will promptly send you a notice of termination pursuant to Socton
