  3. July 2009 LRT Retreat Pursue developing a P20 partnership based on STRIVE PSU steps up . . .

  4. July 2009 LRT Retreat Small group designated to develop straw dog proposal:

  5. Proposal Basics • Develop a P20 partnership framework utilizing STRIVE as a starting point . . . • Developing the partnership becomes the work of the LRT for the coming year . . . • LRT serves as governing council for the partnership • PSU serves as the “home base” for the work

  6. P 20 Partnership Goals EVERY student in Multnomah County will: • Be PREPARED for school • Be SUPPORTED inside and outside school • SUCCEEDacademically • ENROLL in some form of college • GRADUATE and enter a career

  7. Role of the Partnership: Catalyst for Change • Coordinate resources around cradle to career vision to improve specific student/community outcomes • Improve effectiveness by ensuring data is used to build on evidence-based practices and innovate as necessary • Advocate for funders, policymakers, and the community to support what works

  8. What does “now” look like? • A myriad of efforts, initiatives, programs ranging from very effective to ineffective, disconnected, not collecting & using common data or working toward shared goals • The results: kids fall through the cracks, gaps are not addressed, inefficient use of resources, ineffective service delivery, no synergy

  9. Context for the Partnership Synergy Alignment Accountability *This document is meant to be a conceptualization of the context of academic and social programming which impact student success.

  10. The opportunity presented . . . • A coordinated, aligned, synergetic system along the P 20 continuum, birth to career • A “Community Report Card” of agreed upon performance indicators that guides collaboration & informs the partnership & the public on progress • Not a new initiative or program • Takes what is already working to create a more cohesive & effective whole • The partnership serves as the hub to connect the whole

  11. Strive’s Student Roadmap to Success

  12. Possible outcome measures (we would develop our own) GOAL 1: Percent of Children Assessed as Ready for School GOAL 2: Percent of Students with More than 20 Developmental Assets GOAL 3: Percent of 4th and 8th Grade Students at or above Proficiency in Reading and Math Percent of Students who Graduate from High School GOAL 4: Average Score on the ACT Percent of Graduates who Enroll in College GOAL 5: Percent of Students Prepared for College Level Coursework Percent of Students who are Retained in College Percent of Students who Graduate from College College Degrees Conferred Italics highlight those measures that are the Strive partnership’s focus from 2009 to 2012

  13. The Partnership could look like… K-12 Early Childhood Post-secondary Community Students Media Corporate Civic Nonprofit Faith Philanthropic Parents/Family

  14. Why universities as key players? Recognizes. . . • Role of universities as anchor institutions in their communities • Access to research & human capital • The power of universities as conveners & change agents • High potential to sustain infrastructure

  15. The role of PSU. . . • Serve as the home base for the project • Not owned or defined by PSU, others with resources to contribute are invited to participate in the partnership development • Allocate staff & resources in partnership with others • Align research projects that are linked to the goals of the partnership • Serve as a link to Living Cities and the Strive network

  16. What’s different about this . . . • Utilizes academic and social/emotional/community indicators along a continuum • The idea of a cradle to career pathway • Relies heavily on collecting and using common data • Unites organizations in using common data, working toward shared vision & goals

  17. How does what’s working in our community right now fit in? • Early Childhood Council • SUN Coordinating Council • Commission on Children and Families • Education Cabinet • Jr. Achievement • Incight • Connected by 25 • United Way

  18. Challenges presented Let’s get real. . . • Haven’t we tried this before? • Is this just rearranging the deck chairs? • What’s this going to do to address the equity & disparity issues?

  19. Challenges presented • Who is aligning who? • Why should I (my organization) want to participate? What’s in it for me? • There are a lot of other big efforts going on right now, doesn't this just get in the way?
