School.

Work; approximately $12,900,000, plus allowable expenses.

basis to a Stipulated Sum basis to limit additional compensation in the event of increases to the
Cost of the Work.

prepared an Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement to convert the compensation
structure from a percentage of the Cost of the Work basis to a fixed fee basis.

the amount of $12,900,000, plus allowable expenses.

7.F. Board Policy EIC (LOCAL)-2nd Reading
Description:
The reason you want to start with the class of 2032 is because even though the board approved the change in 2025 you had students who took those classes as seventh and eighth graders when no exclusion applied therefore they would be expecting those classes to be figured into their class rank. You don't want to change your class rank policy midway through current students' high school education; therefore, you want to make the change with the cohort of students who have not already taken these courses to avoid negatively affecting the students under your previous plan.
