1 Name of Grant Program: Financial Literacy Pilot Program Fund Code: 740 PART III REQUIRED PROGRAM INFORMATION PROGRAM OVERVIEW The urgency of financial education in our state has been highlighted by the current economy and the need to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to become self-supporting and to enable them to make critical decisions regarding personal finances. In year three of the Financial Literacy Pilot Program 10 school districts will continue implementation of their projects. This continuation grant is designed to support district teams and program activities to engage students in financial literacy education as designed in the FY13 planning year. This includes project evaluation and participation in an overall program evaluation. The following components are asked for in a response to this continuation grant: A. Updated contact information B.

A description of the professional development (PD) to be provided to support teachers to implement the program; 3. scale-up plans; and 4. A timeline for implementation efforts. D. A project evaluation The overall goal for the financial literacy program, inclusive of all participating districts, is to positively impact student knowledge and skill relative to financial literacy and mathematics standards. The Department has contracted with the University of Massachusetts Donahue Institute (UMDI) to serve as the single, statewide evaluator to conduct evaluation activities associated with the grant. Each project (district) is required to contribute data to support this program evaluation. This includes a review and analysis of each project s local project assessment/data sources and involves the administration of a financial literacy assessment across all districts. E.

5 Section D. Project evaluation Program evaluation: The overall goal for the financial literacy program, inclusive of all participating districts, is to positively impact student knowledge and skill relative to financial literacy and mathematics standards. To this end, the Department has contracted with the University of Massachusetts Donahue Institute (UMDI) to serve as the single, statewide evaluator to conduct evaluation activities associated with the grant. The evaluation began early in the school year. Each project (district) is required to contribute data to support this program evaluation. This includes a review and analysis of each project s local project assessment/data sources and involves the administration of a financial literacy assessment across all districts. No action relative to the program assessment is needed for this proposal; the district s awareness of and willingness to participate in the program is all that is needed at this time. Each grantee is expected to cooperate with the following data collection activities: Project Leader Interviews: District and/or school-based project leaders will be interviewed by phone about program activities. Teacher Survey: Participating teachers will complete a web-based survey about professional development, program impacts, and perceptions of program features. Program Materials: Programs will be asked to submit syllabi of courses related to the financial literacy pilot program. Common Pre-Post Student Assessments: During Year 2, grantees will be required to submit the results from a common student assessment that will be supplied to each site and administered to each student participating in the program. Supplemental Data Request: The data request that each district submitted in spring 2014 will be continued. It will include information on program partners and student participants, as well as possibly additional information to be determined. For each participating student, the school will provide the state-assigned student identifier (SASID), pre- and post-score on the common assessment, and the courses and activities in which the student participated. The evaluator will provide a spreadsheet that the site will need to complete and submit with this information. The submission date is to be determined, but is anticipated to be about mid-may of UMDI will no longer ask projects to report on local, site-specific evaluations. Please fill in the following contact information for the school or district contact for any inquiries related to the evaluation: Name: Title: Phone: The implementation timeline in the prior section also needs to include the anticipated dates and activities related to conducting the project evaluation. Section E. Required meetings Grant recipients will be required to attend two financial literacy grant program events: a webinar in Fall focused on program goals, grant expectations and evaluation processes, and an in-person district progress/sharing meeting in Spring to highlight successes and lessons learned to enhance district efforts. No action relative to the required meeting is needed for this proposal; the district s awareness of and willingness to participate in the meetings is all that is needed at this time. 5
