Summary:
Twelve elementary schools are seeking approval to attend Outdoor Education camps at Exploring New Horizons per the attached schedule in the Independent Service Contract. The elementary sites are as follows: Bancroft, El Monte, Hidden Valley, Highlands, Monte Gardens, Mt. Diablo, Pleasant Hill, Shore Acres, Strandwood, Valle Verde, Walnut Acres and Wren Ave. Since student numbers fluctuate, we've added a 15% cushion into the contract to cover additional students. Sites will adjust their Purchase Requisitions six weeks before students attend camp to ensure a proper count and pay the required deposits.
