II. Needed: A Policy Shift Two Major and Separate Reform Movements What’s Missing? Marginalization Moving to a Three Component Model Policy into Daily Practice

When policy focuses on schools and communities working together, it is important to recognize that we are talking about two major and separate reform movements. >School Improvement >Agency Reform And, it is especially important to understand the implications of this!

Instructional Component (to directly facilitate learning) What’s Missing? Management Component (for governance and resource management) Looking first at the Movement for School Improvement: What’s Missing? What’s missing becomes evident when we ask: How does school improvement planning address barriers to learning?

It’s not really missing -- it’s just marginalized This is because current school improvement policy essentially is based on a two component model for describing the key functions schools must pursue each day.

Restructuring and Reforming Community Health and Human Services The intent of current agency reform policy -- >end fragmentation >enhance access to clientele The focus -- >interagency collaboration. >school-linked services (if school-based, approach is collocation) Problems -- >doesn’t integrate with a school’s efforts to address barriers to learning >limits the focus to current agency services As a result, current agency policy produces -- >an additional form of fragmentation >counterproductive competition >greater marginalization

It is important to remember that Community Agency Reform is not the same as Strengthening Communities Because the focus is on services, little attention is paid to >integrating community resources with existing school programs and services designed to address barriers to learning; >strengthening families and neighborhoods by improving economic status and enhancing other fundamental supports.

School systems are not responsible for meeting every need of their students. But... when the need directly affects learning, the school must meet the challenge. Carnegie Task Force on Education

Moving to a Three Component Model Expanding the Focus for School Improvement and Restructuring: Establishes a component for addressing barriers to development and learning which is treated as primary and essential and which weaves together school and community resources to develop comprehensive approaches Direct Facilitation of Development & Learning (Developmental Component) Addressing Barriers to Development & Learning (Enabling Component) Governance and Resource Management (Management Component)

Policy Into Daily Practice: Moving beyond piecemeal and fragmented activity (A few major implications for what schools, districts, communities, states, and the federal government need to do) Ensure a full continuum of school-community interventions (programs/services) Help develop schools as key environments in their community Operationalize the continuum into a comprehensive, multifaceted, and cohesive approach that addresses the problems experienced at every school Enable the braiding of funds from  general funds  compensatory education  safe and drug free schools initiatives  special education  community resources (e.g., agencies, grants, gifts, volunteers, human & social capital)

Discussing Ways to Enhance Policy (1) How might a move to a 3 component approach to school improvement be incorporated into a school improvement plan? (2) Given the problems discussed, how might agencies rethink their approach to working with schools?
