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
Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2026, approved November 12, 2025, Pub. Law.
No. 119-37, the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) has reviewed the Mayor’s request
to reprogram Fiscal Year 2026 Local funds budget authority in the amount of $917,000 within the
Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE) . The funds are needed to properly align
the budget with High Impact Tutoring sub-grantee spend plans.
This action will reprogram budget authority with OSSE’s Teaching and Learning division, from
Account Group 714100C (Government Subsidies and Grants) to Account Groups 701300C
(Additional Gross Pay), 711100C ( Supplies and Materials ), and 713100C (Other Services and
Charges). Funds are available in OSSE’s budget based on the original appropriation but require
reallocation to meet programmatic needs.
The Honorable Phil Mendelson, Chairman
FY 2026 Reprogramming Request for $917,000 of Local Funds Budget Authority within the Office of the State
Superintendent of Education

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

DATE:
SUBJECT: FY 2026 Request for Reprogramming of $917K of Local Funds within Office
of the State Superintendent of Teaching & Learning
The Office of t he State Superintendent of Education (OSSE), Teachi ng & Learning division is
requesting a reprogramming of Local Funds (1010) in the amount of $917,000.
Why are the funds needed?
High Impact Tutoring (HIT) FY26 Budget was fully loaded in Grant and Gratuities. This request
is to move a portion of budget to the DCPS account as a sub-grantee. There is a prior pending
request to move $420K from the initial $3.0M budget, resulting in a $2.58M budget balance.
Does this reprogramming restore a budget cut authorized by the Mayor and/or Council?
This reprogramming does not restore a budget cut authorized 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?
This reprogramming does not 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.

Why are the funds available?
The High Impact Tutoring (HIT) FY26 is awarding/sub-granting $917K to sub-grantees.
What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal
year?
This program is locally funded for FY26 and in the absence of this request going through
immediately, DCPS students will be deprived of high-impact tutoring services. High-impact
tutoring is the most impactful academic and attendance intervention in DC.
What programs, services or other purchases will be delayed as a result of the action, and
the impact on the program or agency?
No negative impact is anticipated as a result of this reprogramming.
