ADMINISTRATIVE COMPLAINT
2e%4 Wd 1-634 01
this Administrative Complaint against Leadership Academy (5159) (“Respondent” or

Florida Administrative Code (“F.A.C.”). 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

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.

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.”

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.
