3 West Charlotte High School 4-Year Graduation Cohort Rate
90% Goal 86% 78% 76% 71% 54% Pre-LIFT Launched Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5

4 Graduation Rates: Where we started…
2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 % Increase/Decrease Garinger High Five schools 92 86 88 80 Harding University High 89 93 87 78 76 -13% West Charlotte High 51 54 56 71 77 35%  West Mecklenburg High 58 64 68 85 84 29% Vance High 70 82 81 22% Our stand in this work is summed up in the promise statement, evolved differently, but it’s about the promise.Will take time, no one who wants it better than us, will take collaboration teamwork and trial and error, way more kids to serve than beacon and lift can serve so must stay the course

5 West Charlotte Graduation Rate: Quality of the Diploma
Graduates earned $4.5 million in scholarships in 2016, up from $1.8 million a year earlier. A third of graduating class attending college or going into the military this fall. West Charlotte High School’s graduation rate continues to move closer to the goal of 90%. This year’s data is not official yet, but based on early calculations we are closer to 90% than ever! The graduation rate at WC has been a heavy lift. Just 4 years ago, the grad rate was 56%. This year’s graduating class is a special group of students. 4 years ago, as Project LIFT was launching, they launched into their high school education as freshmen at West Charlotte High School. This is the first group of students to graduate that have been a part of LIFT since it started. The anticipated increase in the graduation rate this year is evidence, that the work we are doing is paying off. Our students are not only graduating in higher numbers. Last year The class of 2016 earned $4.5 million, up from $1.8 million in scholarship dollars a year earlier. About a third of West Charlotte High School’s graduating walked across the stage and received their passports to a future in the military or college as well. Many of these students were first generation college students. Let’s celebrate the amazing work the West Charlotte High School principal, teachers, counselors and staff invested in not only increasing the grad rate but also in ensuring that students leave high school with a post-secondary plan that will give them a good chance to thrive as adults. Now, let’s celebrate you! Graduation starts at the moment a child walks through the doors of your schools as a pre-kindergartener. It takes teachers, counselors, and support staff to usher them through each grade level…each year is an important building block for the next. The graduation rate is just as much about the work done in elementary and middle school as it is about what happens in high school. For those of you who have made contributions to these students lives, thank you!

6 State Growth Designations: 3-Year Trajectory
Growth Designation Ashley Park Met Did Not Meet Exceeded Druid Hills Bruns Walter G. Byers Statesville Road Allenbrook Thomasboro Ranson West Charlotte In , 88% of Project L.I.F.T. Schools Met/Exceeded State Growth Expectations!

7 Talent Opportunity Culture Impact
75% of the first schools in NC exceeded growth expectation 5 of 6 Opportunity Culture schools met or exceeded growth expectation 68 leadership positions (created over last 4 years) 258% increase in Opportunity Culture applications (over last 4 years) 2500 applications for 68 positions Pay increase $4600 up to $23,000 90% teacher retention (on average)

8 Talent Less than five vacancies across all of the Project L.I.F.T. Schools in each year of the initiative. A CMS leader described a notable impact on staff culture and retention in the L.I.F.T. Learning Community: “Typically our high-poverty schools are difficult to staff. Through Project L.I.F.T.’s efforts, we have a lot more longevity in those schools than we had before or than we have in others…I think having that stability added into a low-performing school really has made a significant difference.” – Cited in RFA Report

9 Time L.I.F.T. Academy has significantly contributed to the increased graduation rate at West Charlotte High School and impacted the personal lives/futures of many students L.I.F.T. Academy strategy is being replicated in 5 additional schools in CMS.

10 Technology In 2013, the distribution of 2000 XO devices led to complete 1:1 technology enhanced teaching/learning in grades 3-8 in LIFT Schools. The roll out of the XO devices informed the broader district approach in its technology implementation efforts. Over 700 families now have devices and broadband connectivity in their homes as a result of L.I.F.T. garnered partnerships and CMS support.

11 Parents and Community For the first time in many years, all Project L.I.F.T. schools have PTSAs (Parent Teacher Student Associations). A handful of these PTSAs are lead by community members whose children do not attend L.I.F.T. schools.

52 Questions

53 Part II: Student Outcomes

54 Outcomes Presentation Overview
Context Previous Year’s Findings Improvements in This Year’s Analysis Analysis Overview Research Questions Methodology and Data Findings Elementary (3rd–5th Grade) Middle Years (6th–8th Grade) High School (9th–12th Grade)

55 Context

56 Year Three Findings Inconclusive results re: LIFT impact on academic outcomes Positive impact of LIFT on behavioral outcomes School-level comparisons may have underestimated effect of LIFT High student mobility makes it difficult to isolate LIFT effects at school level Students who leave LIFT tend to be higher-performing Even in most similar comparison schools, student population looks different than LIFT population

57 Improvements in Year Four Analysis
1. Student-level analysis: LIFT students compared to similar students in non-LIFT schools 2. Dosage: Impact on students who stay in a LIFT school for multiple years We followed two cohorts of students who stayed in LIFT schools for three years

58 Overview of Outcomes Analysis

59 Research Questions Has LIFT impacted student scale scores among Elementary (3rd-5th), Middle Years (6th-8th), and High School (9th-12th) students? Do multiple years of LIFT make a difference? Has LIFT impacted the percentage of Elementary, Middle Years, and High School students who are proficient?

60 Methodology Matched Comparison Group
Identified students at non-LIFT schools with similar characteristics as LIFT students Based on race, gender, special education status, LEP status, behavioral indicators, and academic indicators Difference-in-Differences Research Design Compares how much LIFT students’ outcomes improved to how much non-LIFT students’ outcomes improved Assumption that LIFT students would have followed similar trend as non-LIFT students in absence of LIFT intervention

61 Methodology: Two Types of Analyses
Cross-Sectional Data (same grades over time) Cohort Data (same students over time) Students All students in 3rd-12th grade through Students who: Began 3rd or 6th grade in a LIFT school in Stayed in a LIFT school through Grade Levels 3rd-5th 6th-8th 9th-12th Students in LIFT 3rd-5th Students in LIFT 6th-8th LIFT Effect Effect of LIFT on all students: Effect of multiple years of LIFT dosage on the same students over time

62 Findings

63 High-Level Takeaways Graduation rate at WCHS is nearing 90% goal (85.9%) Some significant positive impact on academic outcomes within each of the three grade-level groups Strongest and most consistent impact on Reading outcomes for 6th–8th grade students More exposure to LIFT amplifies effects for 6th–8th grade students in both Reading and Math No evidence of dosage effect in 3rd–5th grade students

64 WCHS Graduation Rate Graduation rates at WCHS begin 20% lower
Within four years, the gap shrunk to less than 4% WCHS graduation rate is nearing 90% - a target outcome for LIFT

87 Questions?

88 Next Steps: Remaining Year Four Analyses
Student outcomes: Has LIFT impacted 5th and 8th grade students’ Science scale scores and/or Proficiency levels? Has LIFT impacted student attendance and out-of-school suspension among Elementary (3rd-5th), Middle Years (6th-8th), and High School (9th-12th) students? CLC outcomes: How do the Continuous Learning Calendars at LIFT schools affect student performance? Partner analyses: What role do key LIFT partners play in LIFT, and what contribution do they make to the initiative overall and student outcomes?

89 Year Five Research Questions
What key strategies continue to drive LIFT implementation across the four focus areas within LIFT schools for Year 5? How has Project LIFT contributed to improvements across the LIFT schools? How do strategies vary across LIFT schools and grade bands? (e.g., CLC, PD, coaching, literacy, school culture) How does variation in LIFT implementation affect student outcomes? What do LIFT student outcomes indicate about LIFT’s impact? What perceived outcomes do LIFT stakeholders (LIFT staff, CMS staff, principals, teachers, parents) report? How do outcomes vary by grade band? By cohort? Does longer LIFT exposure produce larger gains in student outcomes than shorter LIFT exposure? How do the outcomes of LIFT students who transferred to non-LIFT schools compare to those of non-LIFT students?

90 Year Five Research Questions
What role do key LIFT partners play in LIFT, and what contribution do they make to the initiative overall and student outcomes? What are the prospects for sustaining LIFT?
