Rationale for Collaboration Sample Clauses

Rationale for Collaboration. Latinos make up 6.4% of the Dane County population (2017 Census estimates) and account for the largest ethnic minority (22%) of MMSD students (2018-19 MMSD DPI data). The second fastest-growing racial group in the United States (2% in 2017, Pew Research Center), it is estimated that by 2025 32% of all college applicants will identify as Latino (National Center for Education Statistics). Despite these successes, nationally the Latino population faces countless barriers to achieving academic and career success with a graduation rate of only 77.8% which is 12.2% lower than that of their white peers. In addition, college drop-out rates among Latino young adults remains high, and compared to other demographic groups they are the least likely to earn a bachelor’s degree (21% compared to 45% of their white peers and 32% of their black peers, Georgetown University: Center on Education and the Workforce) The goal of the Juventud and Xxxxxxxx programs is to change this trajectory through improved social support as part of mentoring, tutoring, greater career knowledge, cultural awareness, and efforts from Centro Hispano staff to better engage parents in their students’ academic achievement. Our vision is that Latino middle and high school students in Madison improve their academic performance, graduate on time, and increase their possibilities to attend college while creating a strong sense of identity. One of the goals of MMSD is to ensure that every student is on-track to graduate as measured by student growth and achievement at key milestones. The achievement milestone identified for middle school is “high school readiness in grade 8” and “college readiness in grade 11, high school graduation and completion” for high school. Juventud and Xxxxxxxx directly support this goal by providing in-school and after-school tutoring support and supplemental activities focused on improving academic performance and preparing students for college. Further, this partnership supports the goals and priorities outlined in MMSD’s Strategic Framework 2018; Goals 1 and 2, and Xxxxx 3: Positive, trusting relationships that xxxxxx safe and thriving cultures and climates.

Rationale for Collaboration. Significant numbers of students of color and those from low-income families are not performing at grade level during their elementary years. UWDC and Centro have long-standing and deep commitments to assuring that every child reaches his or her highest academic potential and to mobilizing the community to provide direct support to students in partnership with Dane County school districts. MMSD, UWDC and Centro are committed to working collaboratively with other partners to ensure alignment with partners’ missions: • MMSD’s Strategic Framework Goals: “Every student is on track to graduate as measured by student growth and achievement at key milestones” including: reading by grade 3 and proficiency in reading and math in grade 5) • MMSD’s Strategic Framework Priority Areas: Priority Area 1: Coherent Instruction, and Priority Area 3: Family Engagement and Community Partnerships; • UWDC’s Agenda for Change for Education: “Students succeed academically and graduate from high school, regardless of race.” “Increase the proportion of students of color who score proficient or advanced on the Fourth Grade Reading Test.” • Centro’s mission: “To xxxxxx thriving Dane County youth, families and community by improving the quality of life for Latinos in the region through high-quality programming and services.”
Rationale for Collaboration. UWDC and ULGM have long-standing and deep commitments to assuring that every child graduates from high school and transitions to career and life success as an adult. As community partners to MMSD, we work to mobilize the community to provide direct tutoring and coaching to students to achieve their goals. One of the goals of MMSD is to ensure that every student is on-track to graduate as measured by student growth and achievement at key milestones. The achievement milestone identified for middle school is high school readiness at the conclusion of grade 8. SOH MS directly supports this goal by providing in-school and after-school tutoring support focused on improving the literacy and math achievement of underperforming middle school students. MMSD, ULGM and UWDC are committed to working collaboratively to ensure alignment with MMSD’s Strategic Framework (“Every student is on track to graduate as measured by student growth and achievement at key milestones”); Goal 3 (Black Excellence); UWDC’s Agenda for Change for Education (“Students succeed academically and graduate from high school, regardless of race.”)
Rationale for Collaboration. Latinos under the age of 30 are one of the fastest growing segments of the Dane County population. In Madison, Census statistics estimate that the Latino population has increased from 4.1% in 2000 to 6.9% in 2010. This increase is particularly pronounced in neighborhoods on the South side of Madison where in 2013 over half of the incoming kindergarten class at Leopold School will be Latino. Unfortunately, nationally the Latino population faces countless barriers to achieving academic and career success with dropout rates that are alarmingly high. According to the National Council of La Raza, 28% of Latino students, ages 16-24, permanently drop out of public high school and more than a third are unemployed. Traditionally, Latinos who are employed are concentrated in low-income, low-wage jobs. The goal of the Juventud and Xxxxxxxx programs is to change this trajectory through improved social support as part of mentored tutoring sessions, greater career knowledge, cultural awareness, and efforts from Centro Hispano staff to better engage parents in their students’ academic achievement. Our vision is that Latino middle and high school students in Madison improve their academic performance, graduate on time, and increase their possibilities to attend college while creating a strong sense of identity. One of the goals of MMSD is to ensure that every student is on-track to graduate as measured by student growth and achievement at key milestones. The achievement milestone identified for middle school is “high school readiness in grade 8” and “college readiness in grade 11, high school graduation and completion” for high school. Juventud and Xxxxxxxx directly support this goal by providing in-school and after-school tutoring support and supplemental activities focused on improving academic performance and preparing students for college. Further, this partnership aligns directly with MMSD’s Strategic Framework, Priority Area 1: Coherent Instruction and Priority Area 3: Family Engagement and Community Partnerships: align community partners to district goals and priorities with a focus on our areas of highest need.
