Project Summary: The plan for the Eastside Community Schools (ECS) initiative focuses on five areas: Coordinated resources (e.g. building infrastructure to integrate all partner relationships, space utilization, and outreach so that families are connected to the resources they need); Enriched learning (e.g. ensuring that students, parents and community are motivated to learn; offering a full range of free after-school and summer programs); Health & Mental Health Services (serving as a hub for comprehensive services to address the physical, mental, and emotional needs of the children and families); Family & Community Engagement (e.g. developing a comprehensive plan for parent and other family engagement); and Early Childhood (e.g. developing high quality early childhood opportunities for all children entering kindergarten, including birth). In partnership with ActKnowledge, Children and Families First (CFF) will conduct comprehensive program evaluation to measure effectiveness of ECS in achieving positive outcomes around academic performance; attendance rates; school environments; and parental involvement.
The neighborhoods in the school feeder pattern face multiple challenges that negatively impact children’s chances for success, including high rates of poverty and unemployment, and low rates of homeownership and educational attainment. CFF, in partnership with the Christina School District, will provide Full-Service Community School programming at Bancroft, Stubbs, and Elbert-Palmer Elementary Schools. All three are Title I schools, serving Kindergarten through fifth grade, and will begin offering Pre-Kindergarten services to a targeted group of children this fall. Stubbs is a Persistently Lowest-Achieving School. Both Bancroft and Stubbs will begin to implement the Transformation model this fall. The three identified schools serve approximately 900 students in grades K through 5 each year, in addition to 100 students to be served in Pre-K beginning this fall. The ECS will serve all students in the schools, as well as parents, family members, and in some cases, community members.
