2 Community Impact Report Card The Community Impact Report Card is an online, web-based business analytics application that achieves the following goals: Track population level outcome indicators that the local community has identified and agreed upon Be able to present disaggregated data by subgroups Provide annualized reporting to education and community leaders. Track strategic and collaborative efforts taking place in the community that intend to move the needle on the priority outcome indicators 2

23 Dear Community Members, This fourth annual report from The Strive Partnership offers an update on the encouraging progress being made to improve student achievement and growth, cradle to career, in the cities of Cincinnati, Covington, and Newport. In fact, of the 34 measures of student achievement on which the Partnership is focused, 81 percent are trending in the right direction versus 74 percent last year and 68 percent two years ago. Additionally, Kindergarten readiness has improved in all three of the urban school districts over the past several years. Thanks largely to the work of United Way of Greater Cincinnati and Success By 6, Newport s readiness rate has improved 12 percent to 72 percent of students since 2005, Cincinnati s readiness rate has improved 9 percent to 53 percent of students prepared since 2005, and Covington has seen a 4 percent improvement (versus last year) to 67 percent of students prepared. Cincinnati Public Schools (CPS) became the first urban school district in the state to receive a rating of Effective, which they maintained for the second year in a row. Covington experienced meaningful growth in 4th grade reading, 8th grade math, high school graduation rates, and has partnered with Gateway Community and Technical College and the Social Innovation Fund to transform Holmes High School to further drive academic success and postsecondary enrollment. Newport experienced growth in ACT scores and postsecondary rates. Both the University of Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky University have seen retention rates improve since 2005, and all four local public colleges and universities have seen improvements to postsecondary completion rates and credentials awarded. We are excited about the meaningful progress being made to drive collective impact, resource alignment, and data-informed decision-making. Highlights Include: Ascend Performance Institute, a new twoyear leadership program focused on improving school-level performance through intensive leadership development, performance improvement plans, and ongoing coaching. Ascend, offered through the Mayerson Academy, launched its first cohort of 31 schools including 21 Partnership schools 17 CPS, 3 Covington, and 1 Archdiocese. A second cohort of schools will begin the program soon. Social Innovation Fund, a unique funders collaborative representing The Strive Partnership, United Way of Greater Cincinnati, and fourteen other local funders, is leveraging $6 million, including a $2 million federal grant, to support evidenced-based initiatives, cradle to career. Learning Partner Dashboard, combining student-level academic data with studentlevel service provider data (i.e. mentoring, afterschool, tutoring, etc.) at CPS. This effort is targeted to fundamentally improve our ability to support students with the specific resources they need, drive data-informed decision-making, and improve the impact of services on student success.

25 Goal 1 Every Child is PREPARED for School Percent of Children Assessed to be Ready for School Cincinnati: All Children Prepared Cincinnati Public Schools work with Success By 6 to assess the readiness of every student that enters kindergarten. The district uses the Kindergarten Readiness Assessment for Literacy (KRA-L) that measures elements of vocabulary and literacy development that are critical for later reading success. The KRA-L helps teachers identify early reading skills. KRA-L scores can range from Success By 6 has determined a KRA-L score of 19 or higher as being on track for kindergarten readiness. A score below 19 does not necessarily indicate that a child should not be in kindergarten; rather it can help identify that the child may need extra support. Success By 6 has set a goal of 59 percent of children testing 19 or above by What it Tells Us: Fifty-three percent of children entering kindergarten in Fall 2009 tested 19 or above. The data has seen a five percentage point rise in the current year and a nine percentage point rise since the baseline year. For context, other school districts in Ohio administer the KRA-L, but not all districts assign a cutoff score and calculate the percent of children assessed as ready for school. However, the average KRA-L score is available across districts. In , the average score in Cincinnati was By comparison Columbus was 16.4, Toledo was 17.2 and Cleveland was The State of Ohio average was 18.8.
