Summary :
|
Some years ago, DCSD and other sponsoring school districts formed the Rocky Mountain School of Expeditionary Learning Board of Cooperative Educational Services (“RMSEL BOCES”) for the purpose of operating the Rocky Mountain School of Expeditionary Learning (“RMSEL”) and have entered into an IGA regarding RMSEL’s operation. Since the formation of RMSEL, expeditionary learning schools have been established within the boundaries of DCSD and the number of students enrolled in RMSEL from DCSD in recent years is much less than the 50 FTE student spaces reserved for DCSD students. DCSD’s administration has carefully reviewed and considered the merits of DCSD’s continued membership in the RMSEL BOCES and RMSEL IGA and has determined that it is in the best interests of DCSD to withdraw from the RMSEL BOCES and to terminate the RMSEL IGA effective June 30, 2024. If DCSD withdraws from the RMSEL BOCES and its agreement pursuant to the RMSEL IGA is terminated, all students residing in DCSD who are currently enrolled in RMSEL may remain enrolled in RMSEL through their graduation. The Constitution of the RMSEL BOCES and the RMSEL IGA provides that the board of education of any sponsoring district may terminate the Agreement by providing written notice to the RMSEL BOCES of its intent to withdraw from the Agreement by November 1st of any year and such notice shall operate to terminate the Agreement effective as of the end of the 23-24 school year.
