Establish a Consortium to Jointly Administer an Instructional Program at Christamore

The Iowa Department of Education has restricted third party agencies such as Christamore on their ability to bill schools for services.  As a result a new contract was developed that develops a consortium between schools and divides financial responsibility among all consortium members.  All members have an equal voice in decision making and in the educational process.  Dr. Wells recommends the board approves a consortium contract with area schools to offer a day program at Christamore for schools who needs services our school systems cannot provide.
