The Honorable Phil Mendelson
Chairman
Council of the District of Columbia
John A. Wilson Building
1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Suite 504
Washington, DC 20004-3001
Dear Chairman Mendelson:
Pursuant to the Reprogramming Policy Act of 1980, D.C. Official Code § 47-363(a) and the Full-
Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025, approved March 15, 2025, Pub. L. No.
119-4, the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) has reviewed the Mayor’s request to
reprogram Fiscal Year 202 5 Local funds budget authority in the amount of $88,871 within the
District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS). The funds are needed to purchase custodial supplies
and cover overtime expenses for custodians at the Walker-Jones Education Campus.
This reprogramming is below the $500,000 threshold amount requiring approval by the Council.
However, another reprogramming from DCPS has already been approved, and this reprogramming
would result in a cumulative change to the budget of DCPS of more than $500,000.
This action will reprogram the budget authority within DCPS’ Schools division, from Account
Groups 711100C (Supplies and Materials) and 713100C (Other Services and Charges) to Account
Groups 701500C (Overtime Pay) and 711100C (Supplies and Materials). Funds are available in
DCPS’ budget based on the original appropriation but require reallocation to properly align school
budgets.
The Honorable Phil Mendelson, Chairman
FY 2025 Reprogramming Request for $88,871 of Local Funds Budget Authority within the District of Columbia

The Office of Budget and Planning’s analysis indicates that the reprogramming will not have an
adverse impact on DCPS’ budget or the District’s financial plan. The OCFO has no objection to
this reprogramming request.
Sincerely,
Glen Lee
Chief Financial Officer

SUBJECT: FY25 Reprogramming Request for $88,871.14 of local funds budget
authority within District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS).
DCPS is requesting a budget reprogramming of $88,871.14 in local funds budget authority within
DCPS for Walker-Jones EC.
Why are the funds needed?
Walker-Jones EC is down a Foreman, so Custodians need to work overtime. The building is used
throughout the entire Summer, so additional supplies are needed to maintain a safe environment.
Does this reprogramming restore a budget cut authorized by the Mayor and/or Council?
This reprogramming does not restore a budget cut by the Mayor and/or Council.
Does this reprogramming establish new programs or change allocations specifically denied,
limited, or increased by the Council in the budget act, the accompanying budget report, or
mark-up sheets?
No, this reprogramming is not establishing new programs.
How will the funds be reprogrammed?
The funds will be reprogrammed from Clothing & Uniforms, Professional Services, and
Electronic Learning to Custodial Supplies, Office Supplies, and Custodial Overtime.
FY25 Reprogramming Request for $88,871.14 of local funds budget authority within District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) (page 2)
Why are the funds available?
Walker-Jones EC does not need additional uniforms, professional services or e-learning for this
fiscal year.
What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal
year?
Walker-Jones EC will not be able to have sufficient staff or supplies to keep the building running
efficiently and safely.
What programs, services or other purchases will be delayed as a result of the action, and
the impact on the program or agency?
No other programs or services will be delayed as a result of the reprogramming request.
Should you have any questions, please contact Stephen Hill at stephen.hill@dc.gov.
