Pre-RFPGrantsDetected Aug 1, 2026

Lee County Public Schools Head Start is applying to reduce funded enrollment from 173 to 117 slots for the 2026–2027 school year while keeping its $1,805,860 federal Head Start grant level. The program will eliminate the home-based option and operate only center-based classrooms, repurposing the vacant home-based visitor position funds to maintain staff salaries and benefits. No specific new purchases are named yet, but the narrative emphasizes strategic improvements, increased behavioral and special education needs, and ongoing consultant support.This sets up future spending decisions around classroom supports, mental health, special education services, and training starting August 2026.

Budget categories and amounts remain unchanged, including $13,500 for consultants and $23,497 for Training and Technical Assistance.

The item was an agenda action, so the decision was not yet recorded as approved in the source.
