Assessing the Opportunity Using Multiple Sources

Geographically-specific cradle-to-career data, including school readiness and postsecondary enrollment, persistence and completion Community needs assessment conducted by Boston Consulting Group with quantitative and qualitative inputs on 9 components identified as necessary a healthy community Mapping tool identifying child care providers, including quality rating and capacity

Understanding The Lancaster Corridor Education Pipeline

30% of students enter ready for Kindergarten, with only 16% of students reading on college-ready pace by 3rd grade. 74% graduate HS, while 12% receive 2 or 4 yr. degree

Sources: TEA Texas Academic Performance Reporting (TAPR), STAAR performance data, National Student Clearinghouse Note: Definitions for each indicator are provided in the appendix 1. Educational pipeline only includes data for traditional schools in Lancaster Corridor; it does not include magnet schools

Identified Partners To Date

Capacity-building support via data, connectivity to partners and seed funding Engage stakeholders in cohort design and implementation Engage employers in high- growth industries and provide career coaching Provide early childhood education and recruit parents for cohort Design and deliver course curriculum in collaboration with employer Collaborate in curriculum design to prepare and hire Patient Care Technicians (15 positions unfilled)

Maximizing Existing Funding Sources

Previously secured 3-year, $600K grant from W.K. Kellogg Foundation Currently pursuing independent 501(c)3 status Pursuing competitive grant via City Workforce Program (likely 3-year, $500K) Leveraging existing capacity of Family Advocates (may need to supplement) Offering customized course

Anticipated Challenges

How will we coordinate ongoing communication with cohort members and those supporting them? How will we align schedules and locate services that work for cohort families? What outcomes should we be tracking to demonstrate impact and continuously improve? How can we ensure that Head Start Family Advocates have adequate time to support cohort members?

Lancaster Corridor: Educational Demographics and Outcomes

16% of 3rd graders are reading at postsecondary level with 12% of graduates completing some type of postsecondary education six years post HS graduation

Description of Lancaster Corridor Footprint

• Lancaster Corridor is made up of 5 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 2

high schools in the South Oak Cliff High School and Roosevelt High School feeder patterns

• Also includes 1 middle school magnet, 1 middle school charter, 1 high school

magnet, and 1 middle through high school magnet Student population PK - 12 6,300 public Pre-K through 12th grade students Economics 88% economically disadvantaged Race 66% black; 33% Hispanic; 1% white/other Language 21% English Language Learners Attendance 94% attendance rate (vs. 96% for Dallas ISD) means over 71,000 student days missed per year Mobility rate 31% mobility (vs. 19% for Dallas ISD) means 1,930 students are not enrolled on campus for a full year Key education outcomes All students EcoDis students on pace % on pace1 # not

1. The term “on pace” is used to indicate the percent of students who meet the “passing” criteria for a given benchmark. For instance, Pre-K enrollment refers to the percent of estimated 4 year olds who qualify for free Pre-K who are actually enrolled. For grade level reading, math, science, and Algebra, this refers to the percentage of students achieving Postsecondary Readiness standard on 2015 STAAR exams.

Early Development Instrument (EDI) Data

This domain includes absence of disease or impairment, access to adequate and appropriate nutrition, and gross and fine motor skills. High crime, lack of true grocery stores, and lack of recreation / community spaces are likely contributing factors.

Early Development Instrument (EDI) Data

75216 has one of the 5 highest teen pregnancy rates in Dallas County (over 100 per 1000). Having received a $4.9M grant from the US Dept. of Health & Human Services, the North Texas Alliance to Reduce Teen Pregnancy is taking a place-based approach as well.
