Choice School Programs. The Parties agree that the Choice, or pay-for-service, School Program offerings will be made available in the City's water service area for the Term of this Agreement, without the need for a separate agreement between the Parties in addition to this Agreement. The City sponsors program offerings within its service area at no cost to the schools or students by opting-in. The City will have no obligations to participate in any Choice School Program unless the City has agreed in writing to participate through the annual Choice School Programs Commitment Form. There are multiple Choice School Program options: (a) a program for students in Kindergarten through Second Grade ("K-2 Choice Elementary School Program"); (b) a program for students in Third Grade through Fifth Grade (“3-5 Choice Elementary School Program”); (c) a program for students in Sixth Grade through Eighth Grade (“Choice Middle School Program”); and (d) a program for students in Ninth Grade through Twelfth Grade ("Choice High School Program"). Program offerings include options for in-person and live virtual lessons presented by trained education specialists. The school approved to receive any Choice School Program will determine whether the program can be delivered in-person or virtually. Before the start of each school year and the commencement of any Choice School Program during the Term, MWDOC will provide the City with a detailed description of the program offerings and a complete price breakdown for each. The program description provided to the City will include budget recommendations and expected commitments and require written consent by the City before implementation. The City may request minor adjustments during the course of the program, and the City will not incur additional costs without the City’s prior written consent. 4.2. Annually, the City will set Choice School Program commitments. MWDOC and its contractors will attempt to fulfill the commitment amounts. However, there is no guarantee as to the number of schools and students that will participate in the Choice School Programs. MWDOC will invoice the City for the total annual estimated costs. MWDOC will provide a reconciliation at year-end based on the actual services provided. The City will be responsible for paying MWDOC the difference if the estimate is lower than the actual costs and MWDOC will reimburse the City the difference if the estimate is higher than the actual costs. 4.3. Choice School Program Invoices. MWDOC will submit invoices to the City in January and July each year for the services provided in accordance with the Agreement. The City agrees to pay MWDOC for undisputed invoices within forty-five (45) days after receiving the submittal. MASTER AGREEMENT FOR SHARED PROGRAMS MWDOC & SANTA ANA 9 55401.00001\29553757.1
