FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICES ACTIVITY #1Base Camp and Leadership Summit: GLISI's Base Camp and Leadership Summit (BCLS) is designed to grow teams of school and district leaders. The goal is to equip teams with the skills to address performance problems and improve school culture and student outcomes. In FY24, GLISI served 396 leaders from 20 districts, delivering approximately 15,840 training hours. BCLS aims to increase participant knowledge in leading systemic change. Pre- and post-assessments showed a significant gain in participants' understanding, including improved skills in identifying root causes, performance needs, and engaging others in change processes. A second goal is to increase psychological safety within teams. Post-training, 99% of participants reported a strong ability to create spaces where team members can voice opinions and challenge others. A final objective is to increase motivation for behavior and practice changes. Qualitative data indicates that participants felt better equipped to drive change within their teams and schools. Our long-term goal is for BCLS attendance to correlate with healthier school cultures and improved student outcomes, particularly in districts using BCLS as part of multi-year improvement strategies. Despite disruptions from COVID-19, BCLS partners showed promising results. In 2023-2024, districts that sent two or more teams to BCLS had a higher 4-Year Cohort Graduation Rate (90.5) compared to the state average (85.4), outperforming the state across all student subgroups.
FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICES ACTIVITY #2In-district and Virtual Support: GLISI provides in-district and virtual support services to school districts across Georgia. In FY24, GLISI supported aspiring leaders, classified personnel leadership development, school improvement plans, and district strategic plans. These services are customized to each district's needs. In FY24, GLISI supported 827 leaders in 44 school systems, including a renewed partnership with the Georgia Department of Education for the "GRE4T" initiative. We logged 4,346 hours of support. In our annual survey, 99% of participants said the engagement was relevant to their professional needs, and over half said it influenced their intent to stay in the profession. District leaders reported that GLISI's services built leader capacity and achieved system improvement goals, with 100% of district leaders agreeing that the partnership met its intended outcomes.
FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICES ACTIVITY #3Marquis Strategic Plan Initiatives: Outside of GLISI's direct partnerships with school systems, GLISI also supports networks and engagement aligned with our 2024 strategic plan, which focuses on developing leaders for equity and leading transformation toward agency-building learning. Key initiatives included facilitating the Georgia Deeper Learning Network, a social media campaign honoring educators through the "Hidden Heroes Campaign,offering leadership resources through our SPARK platform. These efforts are supported by individual, corporate, and foundation contributions.
