| As approved by the voters on November 6, 2012, the Schools and Local Public Safety Protection Act of 2012 (Proposition 30) temporarily increased the state's sales tax rate and the personal income tax rates for taxpayers in high tax brackets. The creation of the Education Protection Account (EPA) by Proposition 30 provides that a portion of K-14 general purpose funds must be utilized for instructional purposes. K-14 local agencies have the sole authority to determine how the funds received from the EPA are spent, but with these provisions:
The spending plan must be approved by the governing board during a public meeting.
EPA funds cannot be used for the salaries or benefits of administrators or any other administrative costs (as identified within the account code structure).
Each year, the local agency must publish on its website an accounting of how much money was received from the EPA and how the funds were expended. |

| District staff is seeking approval to purchase through National Purchasing Partners Gov (NPPGOV). Government Code section 6502 and PCC section 20118 allow for school districts to use and/or participate in other competitive bids conducted by other public agencies or joint powers agencies. These competitive bids and organizations comply with PCC 20111 requirements and offer discounted/competitively sourced goods and services. NPPGOV has conducted such bids. Utilizing this procurement method allows the District to save administrative time and expense yet maintain compliance with state laws and regulations. Resolution No. 19-24 seeks the Board's approval and authorization to procure and contract as needed or applicable with suppliers and service providers vetted through this organization. Categories include, but are not limited to: shade and playground structures, computers and other technology related products and services, athletic supplies, science supplies, grounds mowers and other grounds/custodial equipment, office and classroom furniture, food services and products, facilities and custodial supplies, and automotive/transportation supplies and services. NPPGOV is compensated 100% by the vendors, approximately 1-3% of the final purchase price. No administrative cost is paid by the District. |

| This Agreement is made and entered into by and between the San Luis Obispo County Community College District and the Paso Robles Joint Unified School District for the purpose of outlining the duties and responsibilities of each party as they relate to providing affiliated educational courses through Paso Robles Joint Unified School District as Dual Enrollment courses. The intent of the Cuesta College Dual Enrollment program is to provide educational enrichment opportunities for a limited number of eligible high school students, rather than to reduce current course requirements of secondary schools, and also to help ensure a smoother transition from high school to college for students by providing them with greater exposure to the collegiate atmosphere (California Education Code 48800). In addition, the courses offered for students who may not already be college bound or who are underrepresented in higher education, with the goal of developing seamless pathways from high school to community college for career education or preparation for transfer, improving high school graduation rates, or helping students achieve college and career readiness. |
| Increased opportunities for students to access college level coursework and funding for reduced class size and teacher stipends |

| Increased funding $87,000.00 |
