Assurances
The DOE has developed and implemented a document entitled, General Terms, Assurances and
Conditions for Participation in Federal and State Programs, to comply with:
34 CFR 76.301 of the Education Department General Administration Regulations (EDGAR)
which requires local educational agencies (LEAs) to submit a common assurance for
participation in federal programs funded by the U.S. Department of Education;
applicable regulations of other Federal agencies; and
State regulations and laws pertaining to the expenditure of state funds.
In order to receive funding, applicants must have on file with the DOE, Office of the Comptroller, a
signed statement by the agency head certifying applicant adherence to these General Assurances
for Participation in State or Federal Programs. The complete text may be found at
http://www.firn.edu/doe/comptroller/gbook.htm
School Districts, Community Colleges, Universities and State Agencies:
The certification of
adherence filed with the DOE Comptroller’s Office shall remain in effect indefinitely unless a
change occurs in federal or state law, or there are other changes in circumstances affecting a term,
assurance, or condition; and does not need to be resubmitted with this application.
NARRATIVE SECTION
For Federal Programs - General Education Provisions Act (GEPA)
In accordance with the requirements of Section 427 of the General Education Provisions Act
(GEPA) Public Law 103-382, each applicant for Federal funding must provide a concise description
of the steps proposed to ensure equitable access to, and participation of students, teachers, and
other program beneficiaries with special needs. For details, refer to URL:
http://www.ed.gov/policy/fund/guid/gposbul/gpos10.html.
Public Charter Schools Federal Grant Program Assurances
Current federal guidelines for the Public Charter Schools Grant Program require specific elements
be addressed by any charter school applying for these funds. Florida's standard charter
application process is sufficiently thorough and comprehensive enough that these required
elements have been almost fully addressed by the original charter application which is approved by
the local district school board prior to the operation of the charter school,
or
they will be included in
the narrative requirements of the project application. These elements
do not
need to be restated
or rewritten for the purposes of this project application, but the latest and most complete copy of
the charter school's approved application must be attached with this project application to the DOE
to document compliance with each of these elements.
If the original project narrative and
charter application fail to sufficiently address each of these federally required elements
listed in the Charter Schools Assurances provided in this the Request for Application (RFA),
then the applicant must submit additional narrative addressing the lacking issue(s).

Relationship of Project to State Goals and Imperatives
The Florida Legislature has articulated four goals for the state’s K-20 educational and
accountability system that guide and direct educational activities. These goals are:
1.
Highest Student Achievement
2.
Seamless Articulation and Maximum Access
3.
Skilled Workforce and Economic Development
4.
Quality, Efficient Service
Adopting these goals as a foundation, the State Board of Education has identified eight Strategic
Imperatives as part of its long-range strategic planning effort to improve Florida’s education
system. One of these imperatives,
Strategic Imperative 5.0, Increase the Quantity and Improve
the Quality of Education Options,
places a priority on expanding and improving the quality of
school choice options that are available to Florida’s families.
As one of Florida’s fastest growing choice options, charter schools have a key role in helping to
accomplish this imperative. The funds from this project must be used to improve the quality of
charter schools in their second year of operation, thereby helping to expand and improve the
quality of school choice options for Florida parents and students.
Priority Areas and Required Activities
The project application must clearly describe how funds will be used to address each of the
following state requirements. Points will be awarded based on the extent to which the applicant
addresses each requirement.
1.
Overview of School Mission, Philosophy and Student Enrolllment (10 points)

project funds will be used to achieve and measure the attainment of these goals.
Describe the school’s student population, including the number and demographic
composition of the students to be served. Note any changes in the student population to be
served in 2005-2006 from the school’s first-year implementation grant.
2.
Essential Areas for an Effective Charter School Program (75 points)
The DOE has identified the following five areas that are considered to be essential to the
implementation and success of high-quality charter schools. The application must describe
how the school will address
each
of the following essential areas.
Curriculum, Instruction, Assessment, and Accountability
Special Education Services
Business, Finance, and Accounting
Governance and Legal
Administration and Operations

The application must state that the project recipient agrees to notify immediately the
Office of Independent Education and Parental Choice regarding any change in the school’s
charter status, administration, contact information, or other descriptive information that is
needed by the DOE to maintain a current database of all operating charter schools in Florida.
3. Budget Narrative (15 points)
Provide a narrative overview of how the funds will be used to support the mission and objectives
of the charter school. The budget narrative must be aligned with the essential program areas
addressed in the previous sections and consistent with information presented on the required
DOE 101 Budget Narrative Form that is submitted as part of the application.
Dissemination / Marketing
Information about the operation and accomplishments of charter schools receiving implementation
awards will be disseminated and marketed to appropriate populations through charter workshops,
conferences, and websites approved by the DOE.
Reporting Outcomes
Each charter school receiving these funds must prepare periodic financial reports of expenditures
related to the project for submission to the Office of Independent Education and Parental Choice.
Dates for submission of these reports will be stated in the Project Award Notification, DOE 200
form, under the terms and special conditions in section 12.

date specified on the DOE 200 form, Project Award Notification.
Funding Method
DOE 900
Revised 03/2005

Federal Cash Advance
–On-Line Reporting required monthly to record expenditures. Federal
cash advances will be made by state warrant or electronic funds transfer (EFT) to a recipient for
disbursements. For federally funded projects, requests for federal cash advance must be made on
the Electronic Federal Cash Advance Request System. If at times it is determined that
disbursements are going to exceed the amount of cash on hand plus cash in transit, an on-line
amendment can be made prior to the due date of the next Federal Cash Advance distribution on
the Electronic Federal Cash Advance Request System.
Fiscal Requirements
All funded projects and any amendments are subject to the procedures outlined in the Project
Application and Amendment Procedures for Federal an State Programs (Green Book) and the
General Assurances for Participation in Federal and State Programs
. These procedures and
documents can be accessed on-line at http://www.firn.edu/doe/comptroller/gbook.htm.
Supporting documentation for expenditures is required for all funding methods. Examples of such
documentation include invoices with check numbers verifying payment, and/or bank statements; all
or any of which must be available upon request.
Note
:
The charter school director, or the director’s designee, will be required to participate in the
Florida Annual State Charter School Conference to be held during the school year. Additionally,
the director or designee will be required to attend other specified DOE training and leadership
development workshops to be conducted during the school year in which funding is awarded.
Recipients may reserve project funding for participation in these required conferences and
workshops. The project application budget must reflect any funds to be used in meeting these
training requirements.
Recipients may reserve funding for participation in the statewide and national workshops and
conferences, including the required professional development and training described in this RFA.
The federal grant funds must supplement and not supplant the Florida Education Finance
Program.
Federal and state guidelines do not allow recipients to use these project funds for expenditures
which were encumbered prior to the official notification of a project award, as established by the
date of the Commissioner’s project award notification document.
The LEA may not deduct funds for indirect costs, including administrative fees or expenses,
from a sub-grant awarded to an eligible applicant, unless the eligible applicant enters
voluntarily into a mutually agreed upon arrangement for administrative services with the
relevant local educational agency. If indirect costs or other administrative fees to be used
by the school district are included in the project budget, a statement regarding the
agreement between the district and the charter school must be included in the budget
narrative.
Only schools that are in their second year of operation are eligible to respond to this Request for
Application. An eligible applicant receiving an award may use the funds, under federal guidelines,
for the following:
1.
Post-award planning and design of the educational program, which may include:
Refinement of the desired educational results and of the methods for measuring progress
toward achieving those results; and
Professional development of teachers and other staff who will work in the charter school.
2.
Implementation of the charter school, which may include:
Informing the community about the school;
DOE 900
Revised 03/2005
5
Acquiring necessary equipment and educational materials and supplies;
Acquiring or developing curriculum materials; and
Other initial operating costs that cannot be met from state or local sources.
These broad federal guidelines are clearly intended to give the charter school governing board
maximum flexibility to design a budget specific to the needs of the charter school. The DOE has
approximately $11.8 million dollars available for the 2005-2006 Implementation Grant, Second-
Year Application. It is anticipated that awards will not exceed $200,000 per charter school.
Upon advisement from the U.S. Department of Education, the following uses of project funds also
apply:
Renting/leasing and minor remodeling of facilities
is an allowable expenditure;
however, project funds for renting/leasing facilities may be used for a maximum of three
months prior to the opening of school. After this initial period, the costs of renting a facility
are considered ongoing operational expenses. Minor remodeling means minor alternations
to a previously completed building and includes the extension of utility lines, such as water
and electricity, from points beyond the confines of the space in which the minor remodeling
is undertaken but within the confines of the previously completed building. The term does
not include building construction, structural alterations to buildings, building maintenance, or
repairs.
Renovation of facilities
is an allowable expenditure; however, recipients are limited to
expenditures for installation of a fire alarm, sprinkler system, and minor renovations
required for compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Education Act (ADA) such as
installation of an entry-way ramp or bathroom stall bars. Installing elevators for ADA
purposes or removing asbestos or installing fire retardant ceiling panels and carpet, are not
allowable uses.
Employment of staff (salaries
) is an allowable expenditure; however, recipients are
limited to
three months prior to the opening of school
for a principal and/or head teacher
to assist the school with its planning and design. Under special conditions, a charter school
may pay salaries for personnel that were not anticipated such as a full time special
education teacher. In order to pay any salaries over and above the three-month limit
specified above, the school/district would need to submit to the DOE for prior written
approval, a program and budget amendment to their approved project application.
The general rule of thumb for use of project monies is that they be used for items that will directly
impact a student such as school equipment (e.g., desks, microscopes, bulletin boards, overheads,
and LCD projectors), textbooks, computers, library and media materials, professional development
of teachers, and policy and governing board training.
