The program has exceeded all expectations and is being touted as a model program by the State for replication in other communities. The program consists of two separate and distinct components. The first is a center -based element. Presently, this element serves students at Wilson, Lincoln, and Reche Canyon Elementary Schools. Enrollment is at capacity and a waiting list has been developed. This year's grant appropriation from the State of California Department of Education for the center -based element is $104,103. The alternative payment element serves students at all other schools in the Colton Joint Unified School District. Through this program, parents select a licensed child care provider near their child's school or home and the provider is reimbursed directly through the program. This program element has been expanded and is near capacity. This year's grant appropriation from the State of California Department of Education for the Alternative Payment element is $102,021. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that Council adopt resolutions approving the contracts between the City and the State of California Department of Education (SDE) for provision of child care services during fiscal year 1989-90. Moreover, it is recommended that Council authorize Rich Holmer, Human Services Director, to sign all contractual documents on Council's behalf.
