Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary serves 524 students in grades Pre K-5 (83% African American, 17% Hispanic), the majority of whom are at risk of failure. Also, 99% of the students are eligible for free and reduced lunch and fall into the lowest socioeconomic population in the county. In our population, 12% of the students are English Language Learners (ELL) and 6% are Special Education (SPED). All students who attend Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary will be eligible to participate in the M3= SUCCESS program with priority provided to those who have scored below grade level on standardized tests in reading and/or math, and those who have siblings enrolled in the program. In 2003, City of Miami Mayor Manny Diaz adopted Holmes Elementary School for his citywide Mentoring Initiative. The mission of this initiative has been to have the community and government working together to promote positive youth development and to increase student performance. The City of Miami was eager to expand their efforts by reaching out to Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary School to collaborate in the expansion of the Holmes Elementary School model. The primary goal of Mentored Minds Matter-M3= SUCCESS is to foster an appreciation for the acquisition of mathematics, reading, writing and science knowledge within students to enable them to succeed within and outside of the school environment. The intendedoutcomes of the project are to increase /student achievement ins state and'Iocal standards in reading, math, and science; increase homework submission, increase physical fitness, increase knowledge of health and nutrition, improve behavior and attendance, maintain or improve their level of social skills, and increase parental involvement. nciples of Effectiveness Use of Periodic (Formative) Evaluations After review of formative evaluations conducted during the 2010-2011 project year, the following adjustments to improve the services of the M3= SUCCESS program have been made: the program will continue the program service days and hours from Monday — Friday. This will continue to expand the opportunities for students to participate in quality, measureable activities. The hours will continue to exceed Florida Department of Education (FDOE) requirements of operating a minimum of 12 hours per week. Based on the 2011-2012 school calendar and the District mandating to close all schools during winter recess, M3= SUCCESS will not include a winter Intercession for the upcoming year. In addition, A Saturday operation will not commence this project year 2011-2012. Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary Administration has concluded that Saturday operation for 21st CCLC is no longer mandatory. Miami -Dade County School. District will provide LBS with Saturday Academy. Saturday Academy curriculum is provided via Miami -Dade District and is extensive. Total Saturdays' are shortened to maximize student potential. The After School will serve 185 students, and in the summer 120 students will be served. Our continued success has been within our model to provide teachers that are familiar with students' academics from day school; Homework assistance increased; Reading coaches serve as Lead teachers; Powerful and structured leadership team. Some of our challenges for the 2010-2011 project year were Goal 1- Academic enrichment; Goal -2 physical education; student retention by way of extra -curricular activities. -..the program purchased scientific -based research curriculum-(SRA) Corrective' Reading and QAR literacy materials for Reading and vocabulary that included on-line technology Math for grades K-2. Teachers were trained using SRA materials and the reading program was implemented with fidelity. Our partnership with YMCA assisted with incorporating structured activities thru SPARKS. Our partnership with YMCA enabled us to provide a more seamless process for healthy snacks; with the implementation of optimist football, baseball teams in our community, many of our students want to participate. We therefore, incorporated a stipulation, that students that participate in extracurricular must attend 21st CCLC tutoring session prior to any extracurricular activities The 2010-2011 summative evaluation to be submitted to FDOE, will determine if any additional adjustments needed to further refine, strengthen and improve the M3= SUCCESS program for the 2011-2012 project year. Target Population Identification All students who participate in the M3= SUCCESS program will be enrolled on a first come, first serve basis with priority provided to: Students with Disabilities (SWD), English Language Learners (ELL), students who scored below grade level on standardized tests in reading and/or mathematics; and those who have siblings enrolled in the program. Specifically for students attending Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary, "below grade level" are defined as those students who score level 1 or 2 on the 2009 FCAT in grades 3-5; students who scored below the 50th percentile on the SAT-10 in grades 1-2; students who scored below the Reading and FCAT Probability (below 85%) on the Florida Assessment for Instruction in Reading (FAIR) in Kindergarten. In addition, every effort will be afforded to adult family members of regular actively participating 21st CCLC students to educate parents and encourage families to learn together through our monthly 2nd Cup of Coffee and evening parent -child workshops. The focus on family outreach includes parental education, quality family events and increased parental communication. Parents are able to partake in field trips, special activities/events, and parent/child workshops. In order to allow parents opportunity to attend our resourceful workshops, our 21stCCLC registration forms will include dates as well as time.

Evaluation Narrative Miami -Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) has identified Dr. Adela Beckerman as the External Evaluator for four current 21st CCLC grantees. The evaluation plan for each grantee proposes to evaluate the unique features of each grantee's project, while overlaying common elements. This structure will enable stakeholders at the student, teacher, school -site and district level to share best practices and insights into what works at the individual school site, at the District level and across grantees. M-DCPS propose to continue its efforts to improve students' academic achievement (i.e., reading comprehensions, vocabulary, math, and science skills); homework completion; physical fitness; behavior; attendance; knowledge of nutrition, social skills, performing and/or visual arts; and increase parental involvement and family literacy students attending Lenora Braynon Elementary through a rigorous after -school curriculum supported by the 21st Century Community Learning Centers Program through funding provided by the Florida Department of Education. Proponents of the after -school program approach to academic remediation argue that these programs provide extended time in whicl high -risk students can overcome the obstacles that in the past prevented them from achieving proficiency in state standards in core academic subjects. After -school programs are intended to provid extended hours for students to learn and review basic concepts they may have missed during class, tc delve into a more challenging curriculum, and enjoy hands-on activities. The evaluation roposedfor the 21st CCLC grant at Lenora`Braynon Smith Elementary is part of a /arc evaluation effort that will be conducted of other 21F' C;CLC_grants awarded_.to the M-DCPS to address the general question of "what works in after -school programs in the M-DCPS?" The evaluation of the Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary after -school program will be conducted simultaneously, and in conjunction with the evaluation of other 21st CCLC grants awarded to other schools in the District. The evaluation plan being proposed is designed to contribute to the literature about afterschool programs and enhance our understanding of the strengths and challenges of these programs. Research on the impact of after -school programs in the past decade appears to be inconclusive (Hollister, 2003; ReisnE White, Russell, & Birmingham, 2004). The M-DCPS is interested in gaining an overview of the impact the different 21st CCLC grants being implemented. The evaluation design and methods being propose' make a concerted effort to address common research questions and collect comparable types of quantitative and qualitative data. This will promote the sharing of ideas about best practices, highlightir those facets of each afterschool program that are most promising and effective. The formative and summative evaluation of the 21st CCLC grant at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary will address the following specific key research questions: 1. What was the structure, features and characteristics of the after -school programming at Lenora Braynon Elementary including the curriculum, staffing, and activities which were expected to impact students? 2. Did the after school program at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary improve student outcomes pertaining to academic achievement (Le., reading comprehensions, vocabulary, math, and science skills); homework completion; physical fitness; behavior; attendance; knowledge of nutrition, social skills, performing and/or visual arts; and parental involvement and family Iiterac as identified in this proposal? 3. Which students at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary benefitted the most from their participatio in after -school programming? Did particular groups of students benefit more than others from their involvement in the after -school curriculum? For example, did boys or girls benefit more? D students whose parents participated in grant -funded activities benefit more than students whos parents did not? The 21st CCLC grant at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary provides a unique research opportunity to empirically and systematically address these questions. Given scarce resources and student under- achievement, teachers and administrators have an obligation to inform taxpayers about the effects of differential educational intervention. This evaluation proposal is designed to meet this obligation. Evaluation Design The proposed formative and summative research project will be conducted during the 2011-2012 academic year. Since the hypothesis is that after -school programming will significantly support and extend student outcomes pertaining to academic achievement (i.e., reading comprehension, vocabulE math and science skills), behavior and attendance, physical fitness, homework completion, and knowledge of nutrition, social skills, and performing and/or visual arts, and increase parental involvement and family literacy, the unit of analysis will be the 2nd through 5th grade at -risk -children attending Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary and participating in the after -school program. In consultation with the staff from' he 21st CCLC grant at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementay, a logic model will be developed by the External Evaluator that visually presents and summarizes the anticipa outcomes of the programming being offered and the tools that will be used to assess whether these outcomes are being attained. The means by which each of the research questions noted above will be addressed will be integrated into the logic model developed. Research Question #1. This research question concerns the "treatment intervention" for the 21st CCLC grant at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary. The evaluation will capture quantitative and qualitative dat on what specifically is being done during the grant year to accomplish the after -school grant's objectivE The intervention that will be provided will include integration of the Mentored Minds Matter-M3 Success Florida Ready for Reading, Florida STARS, and Comprehensive Assessment of Math Strategies, Strategies to Achieve Mathematics Success, and Strong Women Strong Girls programs. The intervention will also include the YMCA Life Skills Training curriculum and a range of physical enrichment, service learning, and arts -integrated. programming After consultation with staff from the 21st CCLC grant at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary, a variety o quantitative and qualitative data that monitor and record activities and participants in these activities wi be systematically collected by the staff and provided in a timely manner to the External Evaluator for analysis. A full and complete inventory or record of the nature and frequency of activities provided through the grant and their participants will be an integral part of the evaluation research which will be developed cooperation with the staff of the grant. Research Question #2. This research question asks whether there are changes in students' outcomes pertaining to academic achievement (i.e., reading comprehensions, vocabulary, math, and science skills); homework completion; behavior; attendance; physical fitness; knowledge of nutrition, social skil and performing and/or visual arts; and parental involvement and family literacy following their participation in the 21st CCLC grant activities at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary. Identifying the procedures for the collection of the data measuring such changes and sharing these data with the External Evaluator will be developed in cooperation with the staff of the grant at Lenora Braynon Smitf Elementary. These data will include students' performance on standardized tests; measures of studen behavior, attendance, and homework completion; and the Presidential Physical Fitness and My Nutritii Workbook tests. The data will also include the findings of assessments of students' knowledge of socii skills and the performing and/or visual arts, parent/teachers surveys, family literary, and parent/family participation in family -focused events. These data will be systematically collected by the Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary staff and the M- DCPS and delivered to the External Evaluator in a timely manner. Research Question #3. This research question examines whether the effects of the after -school progn are experienced differently by different student subgroups. Which, if any, student characteristics are related to how well students progress while in the treatment program? There has been a great deal of debate of the relative effectiveness of intervention programs for at -risk students. Data collection procedure will reflect this concern. While the target group has been selected because of the concentration of minority and free -school lun students, differences among the target group include gender, race/ethnicity, and grade level. Data collected to assess outcomes will'be examinedfor variation by these background"variables.Sub-groulLL analysis will also include students with high or low reading levels at baseline, and students with low or high levels of behavior problems at baseline. Formative and Summative Evaluation Heritage, Kim, Vendlinski and Herman (2009) define formative assessments as a "systematic process continuously gather evidence and provide feedback about learning while instruction is under way" (p. 24). In regard to the 21st CCLC grant at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary it is anticipated that data from the assessment conducted midway during the school year by the External Evaluator will be share with the project staff and knowledge gained will be integrated into the different facets of'the project's activities. Formative evaluations do not happen accidentally or serendipitously. Therefore, the External Evaluator will make periodic visits to the after -school program to review with appropriate persons the results of the data that is being collected. The data that staff are interested in are data that allow them see the early impact of the grant's activities, and consider whether changes in emphasis need to take place. This timely information is expected to lead the staff of the 21st CCLC grant at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary and the External Evaluator to engage in a continuing dialogue that is anticipated to lead to treatment intervention improvement. A formative evaluation differs from a summative evaluation in that they are designed to influence program design and activities while that are still occurring, and while the conclusions reached from the evaluation can have an impact on the program's outcomes. A summative evaluation, however, is a one time and often high -stakes event typically at the conclusion of the treatment interventions. A summativi evaluation report will be developed by the External Evaluator at the completion of grant activities and delivered to the M-DCPS. The summative evaluation will compare the outcomes of the afterschool program at Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary with that of the District's other 21st CCLC programs. The findings will also be compared to the findings of national studies of 21st CCLC such as that by Mathematic Policy Research Decision information Resources and the Institute of Education Sciences (2005). Data Analysis Univariate statistical analyses will be utilized to develop a profile of the nature and extent of the activitit offered. A de -identified profile of the students involved in the program will be created, noting their grads level, gender, race/ethnicity, the extent of their parent/family's involvement in the program, as well as other outcome variables. - Multivariate analysis will be conducted to examine the extent and significance of changes in student's academic performance. Thus, for example, the 2012 FCAT scores of students in the 4th and 5tt' grades will be compared to their previous year's FCAT scores. Changes in program and school attendance wi also be examined. Multivariate analysis will examine whether there are significant relationships betwe€ these factors. For example, are there significant relationships between program attendance and parent/family involvement and changes in academic performance? Data analysis will subsequently examine whether there are relationships between the students' characteristics of gender, race/ethnicity and grade level and changes in academic performance. The midyearfgrmative and end -of -year summative report will bepreparld in accord`with the instructioi provided by the`Florida Department of Education„!utilizing, where instructed forms such as the U.S. Department of Education Project Status Chart (ED 524B). '10. Dissemination ;Plan. Mentoring Minds Matter— M3 = SUCCESS is constantly disseminating information about the program to students, parents and the community. Information is marketed through PTA meetings, faculty meetings, 2"d Cup of Coffee, All Pro Dads, Connect Ed, local churches, monthly parent calendars, school's website, posters, marquee, parent -teacher conferences and parent -child workshops. All students who attend Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary will be eligible to participate in the M3= SUCCESS program with priority provided to the following students: Students who perform below grade level on standardized tests in reading and math; and those who have siblings enrolled in the program. Specifically, for students attending Lenora Braynon Smith Elementary, "below grade level" is defined as.those.students who score level 1 or 2 on the 2011 FCAT reading and/or mathematics in grades 3-5; students who scored below the 40th percentile on the SAT-10 in grades 1-2; and students who scored below the reading probability (85%)on the FAIR in Kindergarten. In addition, every effort will be afforded to adult family members of actively participating 21st CCLC students to educate parents and encourage families to learn together. The focus on family outreach includes parental education, quality family events and increased parental communication. Parents are able to partake in field trips, special activities/events, and parent/child workshops. Notices of our tutorial programs are mailed to all non-public schools inviting their students, parents and school administration to • attend informational meetings, make inquiries and submit enrollment applications. Equitable services that are consistent with public school students will be provided to non-public school students and their families. Recruitment and retention of our targeted students is done through various means; such as disseminating applications, parent -teacher conferences, administrative recommendation, sending flyers home to parents, strategically placing informative flyers and posters in locations around the school, presentations. during Open House, PTA meetings and Connect Ed to provide another avenue for promoting the program. In order to ensure consistent and long term participation, fun -enriched instruction will be delivered to make learning relevant to real life situations. Engaging mentoring and field trips will be provided to educate and motivate students. Progress monitoring, student/parent surveys and feedback from all stakeholders will guide the overall assessment/evaluation of the program. Furthermore, the addition of new programs such as Florida Ready, SRA Reading Intervention, Math Facilitator, Science Facilitator Hand -on -Science program, and YMCA Dance Instructor — Jerome Mike will enhance the programs objectives and introduction of enrichment activities that reinforce academic themes. 11 Budget 7 Please see the DOE 101 S — Budget.
