Julian Place 2021 Program Progress Report
Results The agreement among the School District, AAF, and Geo to share data on student activities and outcomes is still being negotiated as of the time of this report. Due to this, no school data are available at the time of this report. We anticipate that will be finalized soon. If so, Geo will update this report with those data or issue a supplementary report. A few results from the parent surveys indicate that they already see changes in their children’s behavior and success in school.
Benefits Success in school is a multi-faceted outcome, but all of the indicators of success are built into the Program. Regular attendance leads to better academic performance, but the reverse is also true. Students who experience success in their school work are reinforced to work and study hard and are more likely to enjoy and therefore make the effort to attend school. Once data can be collected from the School District, it is anticipated that Geo will be able to report student progress (with full confidentiality to meet all school and government privacy regulations) in at least the following areas. • • • • • • •
Student demographics (age, gender, grade level, participation in special programs, race, ethnicity, free or reduced-price lunch status, etc., as permitted by the District) State and school test scores Attendance Report cards Discipline information Samples of student work Teacher comments Attendance in school is improving overall and families are having discussions during case management services about ways to continue improving attendance and grades for their children. Solutions to obstacles that may be impacting attendance and tardiness are being explored. ~ Director of Housing
