This is done while addressing individual differences and helping to develop important, transferable skills. Thus, our ambition is to cultivate the whole child. To do so, we have implemented the following distinctive features: Academics: Hornework Assistance, Tutoring and College Prep • Cultural Excursions • Entrepreneurship • Environmental Responsibilities: Self & Community • Fiscal/Financial Literacy • Free Hot Meal Program • Health & Fitness ® S.T.E.A.Nt Activities The START Lab will be the prirnary instrument used to provide support for our academics criteria. We will offer students a structured workspace with the frequency of at least 4 days a weect,where the:youth can receive assistance with assignments that require online engagement. Assistance given will be provided by individuals who are State Certified Teachers/Miami-Dade County Public Schools. Certified Employees with a combined experience of 121 years. Additionally, supplemental assistance will be provided by local college students who seek to work with students in the future as well as high school students needing to perform community service. it will be modelled after one of Miami Dade County Public School's prernier Blended Learning Initiatives, iPrap Math. Blended learning combines online digital media with traditional classroom Methods. There will be unique learning hubs within the space: a small -group, teacher -led instruction area with a Promethean Board; another corner for student group activities; a collaborative workstation; and a lounge area for quiet, independent student work. Please describe how this program/protect and funding will alleviate poverty within the City of Miami? (continued) (Village West Community Needs Assessment Survey Responses, 2013). Of the households surveyed, approximately37% of the parents are unemployed and sometimes unable to provide the proper resources to properly nourish and meet their child's academic needs. We wish to aid in the effort to offer support to those students who do not have access to technology, thus increasing their prospects of bettering their grades in school. One critical part of our mission is to ensure students can develop theacademic skills necessary for lifelong success. Since beginning our work as an after -school organization in 2014, we have acknowledged the deficit students face as it pertains to the lack of technological resources. The START Lab will help our youth academically meet the needs of their educational demands and be instrumental in helping to dose the digital divide. This is in direct relation to Miami -Dade County Public Schools Digital Convergence Plan: An initiative "to close the digital divide...[thisj transformation will not only provide greater digital content & mobile technologies but will help create a new culture of learning by promoting blended learning environments & increasing2lst century learning opportunities," It will also "aid in.developing independent, self -initiated learners; provide for collaboration & communication between students & teachers; & extend student learning beyond the classroom." Describe Overall expected outcomes and performance measures for this prole. gr rare (continued): Outcome 1: At least 80% of students who consistently utilize The START Lab as a resource to complete their digital media educational requirements will demonstrate a 50% increase in the number of computer -based assignrnents submitted to their teacher as evidenced by teacher generated data reports. Outcome 2: At least 80% of students who consistently utilize The START Lab as a resource to complete their digital media educational requirements will be able to master the integrated use of information technology as evidenced by earning a Digital Literacy Certificate. Outcome 3: At least 80% of students will use their interactive media skills learned by consistently utilizing The START Lab as a resource to offer tutorial assistance to children who attend local public elementary schools in the West Grove area to complete their on-line home learning assignments. To document the names of the clients served, a summary sheet of clients served on a monthly basis will be kept. The summary sheet will have the names, types of services, last 4 digits of the SSN and number of days served for each month. Additionally, another form will be kept monthly, documenting the t of UNDUPLICATED people served by race and by income levels based on HUD Income Limits. This will be provided to the City as supporting documentation for the Close Out Report.
