Compiling Data to establish base-line and benchmarks

OBJECTIVES INPUTS ACTIVITIES OUTPUTS OUTCOMES Short Medium Long

Ensure quality data is maintained for successful benchmarking of the program addressing attendance/truancy in K-1 Establish a base-line on where current attendance/truancy issues are on a county wide basis before the program begins (bulk is in elementary ed; 15% early high school). Establish base line of school attendance, graduation rates, and delinquency rates starting in 2013 to monitor until 2016. Statistics should include K- 1, grade 5, grade 7, and grade 9 for future comparison. Compile court data on truancy petitions for 2013. Compile court data on ed neglect petitions 2013 Compile court delinquency rates as of 2013 Compile district-wide data on total youth in K-1 and the number

• f youth in K-1

with attendance issues.

Compile graduation rates for 2013 Compile school attendance rates for 2013 for K-1, 5, 7, and 9. Mass data compilation and assessment of current base-line statistics Quarterly reporting from courts/schools to maintain accurate data and data base.

Maintain quarterly updates on data from court and school.

Establish current ~ student count # of truancy petitions filed # of ed-neglect petitions filed % of expulsion % of suspension for future comparison 100% county- wide data reporting will lead to informative processes to address attendance and truancy issues Have current data on attendance/trua ncy compiled and analyzed to establish base- line: w/i 3-4 months Establish current ~ student count # of truancy petitions filed # of ed-neglect petitions filed % of expulsion % of suspension for future comparison w/I 2-3 months Ensure accurate data reporting and accuracy of base- line data w/i 4-6 months Analyze/compare statistics for first year of program 12 months Reduce school attendance while increasing graduation rates between 2013 and 2016.

Will provide alternative ideas and resources for expulsions and suspensions. Gather specific and consistent data for all schools for suspensions and expulsions. Resources from the Michigan School – Justice Partnership will be reviewed and shared with community partners. Develop a team that will gather data, to share county wide. The team will include school principals, teachers, board members, DHS, and mental health representatives. Team members will provide feedback to schools. Training for school principals and boards will be provided. Current data is district specific and inconsistent in content. The team will review task force data and resources. The team will develop a resource list and determine alternative plans for suspension and expulsion. The team will review current suspension and expulsion practices county-wide. The team will develop training packages for individual schools. The team will provide families and opportunity to participate in the development of policies and practices.

Did attendance increase, as measured by annual student count? Is there community buy in with the suspension and expulsion goal? Is the resource team being utilized? What impact has the change made over time? (2-5 years) What impact, if any, has the change made on student performance? What impact, if any, has the change made on graduate rates? What impact, if any, has the change made on arrests, court referrals, and delinquency in the community?

SCHOOL-JUSTICE PARTNERSHIP LOGIC MODEL EXAMPLE- Community Resource Access

A logic model provides for a logical progression from the goals and objectives of your interventions through the desired outcomes. This draft logic model offers considerations to help your Home Team design activities to achieve the following goals:

• 1. Align policies with emerging research and best practice models designed to encourage student success.
• 2. Increase the use of best practices by developing a strong continuum of behavioral interventions.
• 3. Ensure that the entire community, including students and families, are effectively engaged in the development of evidence-based policies and

best practices. OBJECTIVES INPUTS ACTIVITIES OUTPUTS OUTCOMES Short Medium Long
