On February 7, 2025, Mayor Muriel Bowser requested the reprogramming of $857,070.02 in Fiscal Year 2025 Local funds within the Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE), specifically targeting the Division of Post Secondary Education. This reallocation aims to correct budget discrepancies and align funding with the operational needs of the Career and Technical Education division. The funds will be redirected to cover essential expenses such as personnel services, program services, and payments to subgrantees, ensuring that the agency can meet its financial obligations without delays.

The Chief Financial Officer, Glen Lee, has reviewed the request and confirmed that the reprogramming will not negatively impact OSSE's overall budget or the District's financial plan. The adjustments involve decreasing allocations in areas like Grants and Gratuities while increasing funding for necessary services, including Conference Fees and Professional Services. The resolution underscores the importance of these budget adjustments for the effective operation of OSSE and highlights the need for oversight and approval from the DC Council and the Office of Budget and Planning to ensure that funds are utilized effectively to achieve the agency's objectives for the fiscal year.
