body
Executive Summary
The Supervisor of Professional Learning, on behalf of the Superintendent of Schools, hereby requests the Board to approve the NEFEC 2025-2030 Autism Spectrum Disorders Add-On Endorsement Program K-12. Each endorsement program is approved by the FLDOE for a period of five years and must be revised and reapproved each time. Once content is initially approved by the FLDOE, the Board must approve its use and then it is formally submitted to the FLDOE. Our district uses the NEFEC endorsement plan, and the ASD plans consists of content outlined in Florida Rule 6A-4.01796. The plan has been revised to ensure that there is no language or content that conflicts with statutory requirements and has been approved by the FLDOE to move forward.

Financial Impact
See attached budget sheet.
If expenditure is not currently budgeted, this will serve as the budget amendment when Board approved. If the agenda item includes the purchase of goods or services, the funds requested are an anticipated amount and may fluctuate depending on such factors as current market conditions, product availability, additional funding sources, and the needs of the District. Should the actual cost exceed the anticipated amount, the Board approves the additional cost, after review by the superintendent, but not in excess of the funds available in the site’s approved annual budget.
