The resolution requests the reprogramming of $88,871.14 in Fiscal Year 2025 Local Funds within the District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) budget, specifically for the Walker-Jones Education Campus. The funds will be used to cover overtime expenses for custodians and to purchase necessary supplies for summer programming, as the campus is actively utilized during the summer and currently lacks a Foreman, which necessitates additional custodial support. The reprogramming will involve reallocating funds from accounts designated for clothing, professional services, and electronic learning to those for custodial supplies and overtime pay.

The Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) has reviewed the request and confirmed that the reprogramming will not negatively impact the DCPS budget or the District's financial plan. Although the amount is below the $500,000 threshold that requires Council approval, a previous reprogramming from DCPS has already been approved, resulting in a cumulative change that exceeds this threshold. The resolution emphasizes the importance of maintaining adequate staffing and supplies at the Walker-Jones Education Campus to ensure a safe and efficient environment, noting that postponing the reprogramming could lead to challenges in staffing and supply management without delaying other programs or services.
