Introduction The Master Agreement for Preschool Expansion Services calls for Cincinnati Preschool Promise (the Preschool Expansion Organization, or “PEO”), to annually report data related to students served, community providers supported, and costs expended. This report is due to the Cincinnati Public School District and the United Way of Greater Cincinnati in July of each year. The data included herein have been compiled to fulfill this requirement. The Master Agreement calls for: Section 8: ANNUAL REPORT OF PROGRAMS, PROVIDERS, PERFORMANCE On July 15 of each year commencing July 15, 2017, the PEO shall provide an annual report on the services to be provided pursuant to this contract to the United Way and the School District. At a minimum, the annual report shall include: -A summary profile of the students who benefitted from Tuition Assistance, including data reflecting income level, race, and geographic participation.

-A summary profile of the Community Providers that have received Quality Improvement funding and the progress such Providers have achieved in increasing the Provider’s Star-rating.

-Breakdown of the costs expended by the PEO, including the amounts spent on Tuition Assistance, Quality Improvement, administrative costs, and other costs.

Financial results for the fiscal year ending on June 30, 2022, are expected in August 2022.

When final results are available, they will be shared with the CPS Budget, Finance, and Growth Committees in order to meet our reporting requirements.

The data reported here will also inform Cincinnati Preschool Promise’s comprehensive 2021-2022 Annual Report to the Community, which will be released in the fall of 2022.
