  • Next Move Program, a Partnership with the National Scholastic Chess Foundation, to Introduce Chess in Schools and Communities
    The Broward County Schools and Communities Scholastic Chess Initiative NEYearX 1 TReportM – MayO 2015VE As part of its innovative teaching initiative, the Broward Education Foundation supports and promotes the Next Move program, a partnership with the National Scholastic Chess Foundation, to introduce chess in schools and communities. The study of chess improves concentration and self-discipline, encourages socialization skills that extend across cultures and generations, and en- hances development of critical thinking skills, a vital component for success in the 21st century. • The first step of the program is to have more peo- ple who can teach basic chess so that thousands of students can be introduced to the game. In the fall of 2014, NSCF created “Demystifying Chess: A Thinking Skills Workshop” to train educa- tors to teach the basics of chess at any grade level. The training includes two days of instruction plus additional online and text resources. Students in the chess club at New River Middle School can also participate in Coach Garcia’s chess lunch when he gets to play against the kids as well as have them play each other. Mr. Garcia, a 7th grade science teacher, says next year he will have to break the chess lunch pro- gram into two groups to meet demand! At New River Middle School, 7th grade science teacher Mateo Garcia started a club on Friday mornings before school. One 8th grade kid, a “soc- cer star,” was being teased for “joining the nerds” NSCF executive director and chess master Sunil Weera- but in just a few months has become one of the top mantry leads a class of 35 summer program teachers at players.

  • Driver Safety and Education Program Introduction Responsible
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to Approve Agreement FY20-038 – Driver Safety and Education Program Introduction Responsible: Procurement & Warehousing Services (PWS) This request is to approve the recommendation to award the agreement FY20-038 – Driver Safety and Education Program, for one (1) year from October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019, with an option to renew for four (4) additional one (1) year periods. The Board of Broward County Commissioners will provide a letter to the School Board for each option renewal period to see if the School Board of Broward County, Florida (SBBC), wants to renew the contract for an additional year. An Amendment to the agreement will be issued for each option to renew the agreement for an additional year and brought to the School Board for approval. The Driver Safety and Education program provides instruction to students who want to learn traffic rules and how to safely operate a motor vehicle and this agreement allows SBBC to receive funds from Broward County. Goods/Services Description Responsible: Applied Learning Department The Florida Legislature, through the Dori Slosberg Driver Education Safety Act, has authorized a board of county commissioners to require, by ordinance, that the clerk of court collect additional funds with each civil traffic penalty to fund driver education programs in public and non-public schools. The Board of Broward County Commissioners has enacted an ordinance creating the Broward County Driver Education Safety Trust Fund in accordance with the Act, which provides for the administration and disbursement of the funds. Funding given to SBBC has been found and declared to be for a County and public purpose by the Board of Broward County Commissioners.
