The City of Flagstaff and the Flagstaff Unified School District have been in partnership to provide out-of-school time (OST) programs since fiscal year (FY) 1999 - 2000, which the District provides primarily in concert with and through assistance from the FACTS Program ("FACTS") and the Coconino Coalition for Children and Youth ("CCCY").  The OST programs provide children and youth with life skills, enrichment, and academic support in a safe and drug-free environment, and assist the Flagstaff community in developing resilient youth who are less likely to engage in high risk behaviors and who are more likely to become healthy, well-rounded adults, able to contribute to society in meaningful ways. The OST Programs have particular focus for the latchkey child who has no adult at home before or after the regular school day. 

The District and the City wish to enter into this Agreement regarding the City’s grant of funds for Fiscal Year 2026 and subsequent fiscal years subject to future City Council budget appropriations, through the District as the fiscal agent for the OST Programs, to be for OST Program implementation, operation, and administrative costs, including the salary of the FACTS Program’s Coordinator and the CCCY Program’s Executive Director, each of which function as full time employees of the District.

This Agreement, if approved, will become effective on July 1, 2025, and continue in full force and effect until June 30, 2026. Subject to annual City Council budget appropriations and mutual written agreement between the City and District, this Agreement may be administratively renewed for a maximum of nine (9) additional one (1) year terms.

There is no policy impact. 

The IGA was last reviewed and approved by City Council on January 5, 2021.

The City Council could not approve the IGA, which would heavily impact out-of-school time programs for youth in Flagstaff, or direct staff to make changes to the proposed language.
