  1. COIP Pilot 2012-2013 Summary Report

  2. Two-school pilot in the Boise and Vallivue Districts began October 2012 and in January of 2013 • Total children at the end of the pilot = 16 • All had a parent(s) in prison for six months or more • Children were 8-11 years of age • Children met at least once per week each week of the school term in a “club” setting COIP Pilot

  3. Pilot focus was on attendance, academics and behavior • Three sets of questions were created that addressed parents, students and teachers • We used the data from the questions as our baseline; as our midpoint; and as our final measurement COIP Pilot

  4. The questions were directed toward how parents, children and teachers perceived attendance, academics and behavior. Data was sent to BSU data analyst for entry and evaluation. Children were identified only by numbers, not names. Pilot Questionnaires

  5. The Results

  6. The Results The most obvious change resulting from the pilot was this: Nearly every parent or guardian reported substantial improvement in the child’s behavior at home. Children noted that the “clubs” or the pilot improved their sense of self and relationships. Parents commented similarly and noted an increased effort to provide enforcement of ‘doing homework.’

  7. Home Behavior Before the Club Home Behavior After the Club • No trouble interacting with incarcerated parent • 47% Yes • Happy at home? • 75% • Happy at home? • 65% Yes • No trouble interacting with incarcerated parent • 75% Yes Home Behavior Improved

  8. Home Behavior • Less trouble at home • Child causes fewer problems • Child more willing to express their feelings • More openness Parents or guardians reported clear improvement in child’s ‘at home’ behavior. It seems obvious that parents and guardian felt the ‘club’ or pilot program had a big impact on the child. Parents specifically cited the club as helping the child improve their home life.

  9. Other Findings • Social interactions at school were mixed. Teachers saw more problems than parents and students saw • Parents saw improvements with teachers and classmates. Some disconnect between parents perceptions and that of teachers. No clear explanation for the differences other than teachers may have viewed the issue as one of discipline while parents and children did not. Parents said they heard fewer complaints from their children about school.

  10. School Work • Generally, students seemed to not “try as hard” on their schoolwork • More students working at grade level than before the “clubs” • Mixed view of students completing homework assignments Parents, teachers and students agree that by a small margin there were improvements, grade level work and general progress in school. Teachers saw a big drop of children completing their assignments, but parents and students reported they saw improvement.

  11. Current school year pilot begins in October • Six schools with possible addition of two more • Twin Falls, Boise, Nampa, Caldwell & Vallivue districts • 80-100 children • Long range plans are under discussion 2013-14 Pilot Plans
