Carver Foundation of Norwalk 2013-2014 Review 2014-2015 Update Report to Our Community

FOUNDATION OF NORWALK, INC.

The Carver Community

Founded in 1938 as a neighborhood community center, named the 2013-2014 “Nonprofit of the Year” by the Norwalk Chamber of Commerce, Carver is the largest provider of after-school programs for middle and high school students in Norwalk. Carver’s Youth Development Program is conducted in the Carver Community Center and in Norwalk’s four middle and two comprehensive high schools. Carver also provides after-school programming for K-5 students at the Carver Community Center. A new custom program is underway in Briggs High School this year as part of the governor’s turnaround plan for the school. Carver helps Norwalk Public Schools raise overall student performance. Carver students out-perform their peers on standardized testing.

Since 2005, 100% of Carver students have graduated from high school on-time, nearly 100% of our graduates attend college and 85% go on to earn a degree; 95% of Carver graduates are first generation college students.

We offer college scholarships, multiple summer education programs, winning basketball travel teams, international learning opportunities, parent leadership, health and wellness programming, spring and fall college tours, food drives, community holiday events and more for the benefit of the Norwalk community.

We have gifts and talents

Dear Mission Partners

In keeping with the example of our namesake, the legendary scientist and educator George Washington Carver, we are always asking what’s possible. Thanks to the hard work and contributions of many individuals, organizations, and institutions, last year and the year now underway are years of investment, the steady expansion of our after school, summer and community programming, and the strengthening of our relationships and strategies.

From the University of Pennsylvania’s Character Lab conducting research at Carver to a new Kids’ Fitness and Nutrition Services program conducted in partnership with Stamford Hospital, the Carver community is expanding in its reach and ideas.

Last year, more than 500 future scientists, developers, engineers and mathematicians immersed themselves in a day of building robots, fuel cell-powered cars and wind turbines followed by a career expo at a symposium Carver conducted in partnership with Norwalk Public Schools, CBIA Education Foundation and dozens of exhibiting companies and organizations.

From producing five distinct summer education programs this past summer serving more than 600 students throughout Norwalk to conducting our 44th annual spring 10-day college tour, Carver is keeping faith with its history while responding to emerging community needs and fostering the spirit of—and providing the infrastructure for—collaboration and increased impact.

Our donor community remains as vital and enthusiastic as ever, from our annual gala to inspiring gatherings in advocates’ homes in Darien and Rowayton. This new fiscal year, our Board of Directors organized Carver’s first annual golf tournament at the Country Club of Fairfield.

Carver is Community and Education, and we are Thankful. Carver is what you help us to be and to become. As we soon begin our 77th year, who is to say that these are still not Carver’s early years? Thank you for being such a vital part of the Carver story.

Sincerely,

Novelette Peterkin Executive Director

After School

Carver is the largest provider of after-school programs for middle and high school students in Norwalk. Carver’s Youth Development Program (YDP) is conducted in the Carver Community Center and in Norwalk’s four middle and two comprehensive high schools with a 90+% daily average attendance rate. Carver also provides after-school programming for K-5 students at the Carver Community Center offering an evidence- and project-based curriculum in STEM (science Technology Engineering and Math), Literacy, Nutrition and Wellness, tracking performance on pre- and post-tests to determine a student’s mastery of content. YDP offers intensive college prep support, including free busing for each location. Our target after-school enrollment for 2014-15 is: Norwalk High School – 80 students | Brien McMahon High School – 80 students | Nathan Hale Middle School – 80 students | Ponus Middle School – 80 students | Roton Middle School – 80 students | West Rocks Middle School – 80 students Carver Community Center: (K-5 program) CASPER – 65 students | Jr. YDP – 45 students | Sr. YDP – 30 students.

YDP maintains a 10:1 student-to-staff ratio and each after-school program is led by certified teachers hired from within the participating schools. Non-certified staff and professionals help facilitate programs.

Additionally, select certified teachers are hired, especially in science, math and technology, to support our robust STEM education programming, including project-based activities such as Robotics, Hands on Science, marine biology, pre-engineering, videography and digital arts.

Many partnering agencies include FIRST Lego (robotics), Shakespeare on the Sound, CPEP (engineering projects), Maritime Aquarium (marine biology), Sound Waters, Norwalk Seaport Association, Westport Playhouse, Northeast Children’s Theatre Company, Girl Scouts and many others that provide in-depth, hands-on exposure to many academic and enrichment disciplines and opportunities.

We are not statistics

Summer Learning

Carver facilitated five 2014 summer learning programs for 616 students receiving significant media attention. Our traditional summer enrichment program served 185 students (ages 5 to 13) at the Carver Community Center. Students participated in Reading, Math and Science programs that were facilitated by Norwalk certified teachers using evidenced-based curriculum aligned with the Common Core.

The Connecticut Department of Public Health conducted its annual unannounced inspection and for the second consecutive year gave Carver a perfect score.

The new summer enrichment program at Columbus Magnet School served 206 students (ages 5 to 13). Students participated in project-based activities, which were facilitated by professionals and partnering agencies such as the Maritime Aquarium, Stepping Stones Museum, Norwalk Seaport Association, Friends of Ryan Park, Girl Scouts and Norwalk Grassroots Tennis.

In partnership with Norwalk Public Schools we facilitated two Freshman Summer Success Academies for incoming 9th grade students transitioning into Norwalk High School and Brien McMahon High School.

For the second consecutive year, we implemented an academic credit recovery summer program for students at Briggs High School. Twenty-five students spent half of their day with a Math, Science and English teacher and the other half in a paid internship or job. This past summer six students successfully graduated as a result of their participation in the summer academy.

We are the future

Community

The George Washington Carver Community Center is a place for continuous community activities from food drives and parent leadership programs to celebrations and sports leagues. The community center hosts K-12 after-school programs, summer camp, career fairs, holiday celebrations, awards dinners, our Step Dance Talent Showcase, and teen “Explosion” nights, reaching thousands of people each year young and old.

In the community, Carver is called upon to meet additional needs and opportunities. For example, Stefan Pryor, Commissioner of Education for the State of Connecticut, selected Carver to provide wraparound services for Briggs High School students as part of the governor’s turnaround plan for that school, beginning in the 2014-2015 academic year. Another example is Carver being called upon to create a new summer education opportunity for young people in South Norwalk.

The primary principles that drive all of Carver’s programs are high expectations of our young people with the final goal of graduating high school on-time and college-ready; academic rigor focused on project-based learning and individualized learning; building healthy relationships; student voice and taking responsibility; building community through defined structures of cooperative decision-making; and a youth development approach to instruction that recognizes individual strengths, needs, and learning styles.

We have hopes and dreams

FOUNDATION OF NORWALK, INC.

Groups and individual volunteers are integrated throughout Carver’s three intense areas of after-school programming: academics, enrichment and health and wellness. Volunteers include tutors, mentors, homework helpers, career counseling, skill-specific projects. The Carver Community Center also utilizes individuals and groups of volunteers for community events such as Career Fairs, talent contests, student and family awards ceremonies, Teen Explosion Nights, many holiday celebrations, and food drives. Carver’s summer and holiday programs draw many more volunteers.

The Fairfield County Sports Commission established its Chelsea Cohen Fitness Academy at the Carver Community Center involving volunteers. Corporate teams and private schools such as St. Luke’s School in New Canaan produce day-long events for our youth and undertake extensive renovation and clean-up projects.

You may have your own ideas! Help Carver remove barriers to learning and increase access to learning supports and enrichment opportunities; help our families increase access to services and opportunity; expose youth to new learning opportunities and provide them access to personalized learning through web-based programs and activities; provide other key supports to help students get and stay on a pathway to high school, college, and beyond.

Financial Review

We first expanded our successful Youth Development Program, conducted at the Carver Community Center since 1970, two Norwalk middle schools in the 2008-2009 academic year.

Carver began to carefully add Norwalk Public School based programs in 2009-2010. Carver reached its capacity in 2013-2014, serving a maximum number of students in Norwalk’s four middle and two comprehensive high schools, as well as at the Carver Community Center, with 100% of our students still graduating on-time and college-bound. We are reducing our operating budget in 2014-2015 to strengthen our funding reserves. With almost 100% of our revenue resulting from private individual, corporate and foundation gifts, we are deeply grateful for your generous support through the years and for the years to come.
