The Petitioner revokes Respondent’s participation in the John M. McKay Scholarships for Students with Disabilities Program (“McKay”) and imposes other appropriate sanctions as provided by law. Petitioner alleges: JURISDICTION 1. At all times pertinent hereto, Respondent was a private school participating in the John M. McKay Scholarships for Students with Disabilities Program (“McKay Scholarship Program”) providing services to eligible students pursuant to § 1002.39, 1002.42, and 1002.421, F.S.; and Rules 6A-6.03315, 6A-6.0970, F.A.C. 2. At all times pertinent hereto, Respondent has operated Leadership Academy at 2099 West Prospect Road, Tamarac, Florida; 5420 N State Road 7, Tamarac, Florida; and 2351 NW 26th Street, Oakland Park, Florida. 3. As a private school participating in the McKay Scholarship Program, Respondent is required to continually comply with all laws relating to the general regulation of private schools. § 1002.421(1), F.S.; Rules 6A-6.03315, and 6A- 6.0970(6)(c)-(d), F.A.C. 4. Petitioner is responsible for the implementation and operation of the McKay Scholarship Program. § 1002.39, 1002.42, and 1002.421, F.S.; Rules 6A-6.03315 and 6A-6.0970, F.A.C. 5. As part of that responsibility, Petitioner is required to ensure that private schools participating in the McKay Scholarship Program continually comply with all state laws relating to general regulation of private schools. § 1002.39(6)-(7), 1002.42(2), and 1002.421(2), F.S.; Rule 6A-6.0970(7)-(9), F.A.C. 6. Petitioner also has the authority to suspend or revoke a private school’s participation in this program if Petitioner determines that the private school has failed to comply with the McKay Scholarship Program requirements or has otherwise engaged in unlawful activity. § 120.569, 120.57, 1002.39, 1002.39(7), F.S.; 1002.42, and 1002.421, F.S.; Rules 6A-6.03315, 6A-6.0970, and 6A-6.0970(7), F.A.C. MATERIAL ALLEGATIONS McKay Scholarship Program 7. The Department re-alleges paragraphs 1-6. 8. The McKay Scholarship Program affords a disabled student the option of attending a different public school from the one to which he is assigned, or, if he is eligible, the opportunity to receive a scholarship to defray the cost of attending a private school of choice. Winn v. Muskateer’s Academy, Ine, Recommended Order Finding of Fact #9, DOE-2006-1243, DOAH 06-5074; See, § 1002.39, F.S.; and Rule 6A-6.0970, F.A.C. 9. Once awarded, a McKay scholarship remains in force until the student returns to public school, graduates, or turns 22, whichever first occurs; provided, however, that he/she does not drop out, which would render the student ineligible for the scholarship. Id. 10. To participate in the McKay Scholarship Program, a private school must meet certain conditions. McKay scholarship funding is potentially available to most private schools operating lawfully in the state, for the program is designed to be inclusive in this regard. Winn v. Muskateer’s Academy, Inc., Recommended Order Finding of Fact #10, DOE-2006-1243, DOAH 06-5074; See, § 1002.39, 1002.42, and 1002.421, F.S.; Rules 6A-6.0970, and 6A-6.03315, F.A.C, 11. A private school that wants to participate in the McKay Scholarship Program must notify the Department of its interest and submit information demonstrating compliance with the eligibility requirements. This information — and other data necessary to secure the disbursement of scholarship funds.— must be transmitted to the Department electronically, through forms available online to registered users, at a secure Web site maintained by the Department. To access this site, a private school must first obtain a unique code and establish a confidential password, both of which must be entered correctly in order to logon to the Department’s secure Web page. Winn v. Muskateer’s Academy, Inc., Recommended Order Finding of Fact #11, DOE-2006-1243, DOAH 06-5074; See, § 1002.39, 1002.42, and 1002.421, F.S.; Rules 6A-6.0970, and 6A- 6.03315, F.A.C. , 12. If the parent of an eligible student chooses the private school option and secures a place for his child at the private school of choice, then the parent must notify the Department of his decision before the child begins attending the private school. After receiving such notice, the Department verifies the student’s enrollment in the private school, obtains from the private school a schedule of the tuition and fees, and receives from the student’s school district a “matrix of services” reflecting the student’s special educational needs. Winn v. Muskateer’s Academy, Inc., Recommended Order Finding of Fact #12, DOE-2006-1243, DOAH 06-5074; See, § 1002.39, F.S.; and Rule 6A- 6.0970, F.A.C. 13. The maximum amount of the McKay scholarship for a particular student is the: lesser of (a) the “calculated amount” (which is roughly equal to the estimated cost of educating the student in the public school to which he is assigned) or (b) the actual amount of the private school’s tuition and fees. The amount of the student’s scholarship is deducted from his public school district’s total funding entitlement. Winn v. Muskateer’s Academy, Inc., Recommended Order Finding of Fact #13, DOE-2006-1243, DOAH 06-5074; See, § 1002.39, F.S.; and Rule 6A-6.0970, F.A.C. 14. McKay scholarship payments are made in four equal amounts during the school year to which the scholarship applies. The payment dates are September 1, November 1, February 1, and April 1. Payments are made by warrant payable to the student’s parent. The Department mails each warrant to the private school of the parent’s choice. The parent is required to restrictively endorse the warrant, authorizing the funds to be deposited only in the private school’s account. Winn v. Muskateer’s Academy, Inc., Recommended Order Finding of Fact #14, DOB-2006-1243, DOAH 06-5074; See, § 1002.39, and1002.421, F.S.; and Rule 6A-6.0970, F.A.C. 15. To remain eligible for the McKay scholarship, the student must have regular and direct contact with his teacher(s) at the private school’s physical location. Thus, ahead of each payment (after the initial payment’), the private school must verify, through the Department’s secure, password-protected Web site, that the student continues to be enrolled in, and to attend, the private school. Winn v. Muskateer’s Academy, Inc., Recommended Order Finding of Fact #15, DOE-2006-1243, DOAH 06-5074; See, § 1002.39, and 1002.421, F:S.; and Rule 6A-6.0970, F.A.C. 16. . Itis in connection with these ongoing duties that Respondent violated applicable law. On various dates between the 2007/2008 school year and the 2008/2009 school year, at least 8 students in question were enrolled and/or attended Leadership Academy. These students never attended, subsequently graduated, withdrew or otherwise stopped attending Leadership Academy. However, Respondent continued to verify to the Department — on a quarterly basis through a password-protected Web site — that these students were still enrolled and attending Leadership Academy, and were otherwise still eligible for the McKay Scholarship Program. 17. Respondent intentionally reported to the Department that these students had re- enrolled (or continued to attend) at Leadership Academy, while either (a) knowing that " The first McKay scholarship warrant is provided based on a private school’s enrollment of the student for that school year. Rule 6A-6.0970(5)(c)1.-2., F.A.C. this representation of material fact was false or (b) recklessly disregarding the truth or falsity of such. Respondent claimed and received McKay Scholarship Program warrants on behalf of these students.” Student “A” Respondent Claimed An Ineligible Student During The 2007/2008 School Year (No Regular & Direct Contact) 18.

Attached and incorporated by reference is a synopsis with supporting documentation from the Department’s Office of Inspector General pursuant to their investigation. 24, The failure of a student to have regular and direct contact with his private school’s teachers at the school’s physical location renders the student ineligible for the McKay Scholarship Program. § 1002.39(3)(h), F.S. 25. Regular and direct contact is “a program of instruction that provides for a minimum of one hundred and seventy (170) actual school instruction days with the required instructional hours (determined by grade level per state board Rule 6A-1.09512, F.A.C.) under the direct instruction of the private school teacher at the school’s physical location with occasional off-site activities under the supervision of the private school teacher.” Rule 6A-6.03315(1)(c), F.A.C. 26.
