Abstract
Project Description: The mission of Chicago Collegiate Charter School (CCCS), opening August 19, 2013 on the far South Side of Chicago, is to equip all students in grades four through twelve with the academic skills, intellectual habits and character traits to succeed in the college of their choice, lead in their communities, and change the world. At CCCS, we will work relentlessly to ensure our students earn acceptance into four-year colleges and universities and graduate from those schools within six years. We will employ a unique, expanded middle school that starts at grade four, allowing us to address our students’ growing literacy gap before they take on the demands of a true middle school curriculum. Our lead founder and Executive Director, Beth Carrera Napleton, is a highly accomplished educator who has extensive leadership experience with KIPP Schools, Teach For America, and the prestigious Building Excellent Schools Fellowship, all informing the design of CCCS with the best practices of the most successful schools in the country serving low-income students from minority backgrounds.
CCCS will start in Y1 with 120 students in 4th and 5th grades, expanding by one grade each year until we reach 560 students in 4th-12th grades. To date, our student enrollment is 96% Black, 3% Hispanic/Latino and 1% American Indian; 90% qualify for free or reduced price lunch and 22% have IEP and/or 504 plans on file with the school (with an additional 14% either likely to have an IEP or needing evaluation). Based on student performance levels in our neighborhood, we expect students to arrive at CCCS significantly behind grade level. In the neighborhood, only 19.9% of students are performing at or above grade level in math, and only 15.3% are meeting state standards in reading; the current high school graduation rate is just 42%. As detailed in the attached proposal, CCCS will offer a much-needed high quality option for families in the area with a focus on differentiated, personalized instruction, extended learning time, an intensive focus on student achievement data and a “warm/strict” school culture.
