The document establishes parameters for what expenditures the contractor may charge against the contract, including staffing-related costs, operational expenses, and other direct costs necessary to fulfill the Special Education Teacher role. These allowable items define the scope of compensation and reimbursable activities, ensuring that contractor expenses remain aligned with OCFS budget parameters and contractual obligations while maintaining transparency in cost allocation for this critical educational services position.
