INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT 196 14445 DIAMOND PATH WEST ROSEMOUNT, MINNESOTA 55068-4199 November 3, 2004 Mr. Jamie Verbrugge City of Rosemount 2875 145 Street West Rosemount, Minnesota 55068 Dear Mr. Verbrugge: Jill E. Coyle, School District Attorney 651- 423 -7883 FAX 651- 423 -7727 jill.coyle @district196.org Enclosed is a copy of the annual D.A.R.E. and Police Liaison Services Agreement for the 2004 -2005 school year. The amount specified in the agreement was verified in conversation with representatives of your police department. As you may know, the Minnesota Legislature has reduced the "Safe Schools Levy" by 10% from the previous year. This forced us to make cuts in some levy- funded programs. In spite of this, we have provided the local police departments who work with district 196 an increase in funding of approximately 3% overall. Levy funding for the D.A.R.E. program has been capped at $50,000 districtwide by the Board of Education. This amount is then divided by the number of fifth graders to determine the amount each department will receiveper pupil served. This year's funding is $23.81 per student, down slightly from $23.93 last year. Based on the 256 fifth graders in the two elementary schools in Rosemount, the payment for the D.A.R.E. Program will be $6,095. The City of Rosemount will also receive a total of $42,417 for police liaison services at Rosemount High School and Rosemount Middle School. Taking all this into consideration, the City of Rosemount will receive a total of $48,512 for D.A.R.E. ($6,095) and police liaison services ($42,417) in the four District 196 schools in Rosemount that receive such services. Please review this document and return the signed copy to me.
