THE SCHOOL IS A BEACON OF HIGH QUALITY AND CATALYST FOR POLICY CHANGE IN THE HAMPTON ROADS REGION AND FOR THE COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA. WITH A SEVEN-YEAR TRACK RECORD, OUR MODEL PROVES THAT WHEN ALL CHILDREN HAVE ACCESS TO HIGH QUALITY, THEY ENTER KINDERGARTEN WITH THE ACADEMIC AND "SOFT SKILLS" THEY NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL.E3 FUNDED AND WORKED ALONGSIDE UVA TO DEVELOP THE STREAMIN3 (SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, READING, ENGINEERING, ARTS AND MATH) CURRICULUM MODEL IN OUR SCHOOL. THE ULTIMATE GOAL WAS TO ENSURE THAT THE CURRICULUM, PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT, COACHING AND ASSESSMENT MODEL COULD BE REPLICATED AND SCALED TO IMPACT MORE CHILDREN, FAMILIES, TEACHERS AND PROGRAMS.E3'S TEAM ADVOCATED FOR STATE AND PRIVATE FUNDS TO PILOT THE MODEL VOLUNTARILY IN 82 EARLY LEARNING CLASSROOMS (FAITH-BASED, HEAD START, PRIVATE PROGRAMS AND THE VIRGINIA PRESCHOOL INITIATIVE). RESULTS FROM THE PILOT IMPLEMENTATION EVALUATION PROVED THAT THE MODEL IS REPLICABLE AND SCALABLE. E3 ADVOCATED FOR ALL STATE-FUNDED PROGRAMS TO HAVE ACCESS TO STREAMIN3. THE STREAMIN3 MODEL IS NOW AVAILABLE TO ALL BIRTH TO FIVE PUBLICLY-FUNDED CLASSROOMS IN THE STATE. SERVICES:OUR AWARENESS, ADVOCACY AND POLICY INITIATIVES RESULTED IN: - OVER $35M+ IN PRIVATE INVESTME - OVER $142M+ IN PUBLIC INVESTMENT - HISTORIC STATE INVESTMENT AND POLICY CHANGE TO INCREASE ACCESS, IMPROVE QUALITY, SUPPORT TEACHERS AND PROGRAMS - DEDICATED FUNDING FOR OVER 20,000 AT-RISK CHILDREN TO HAVE ACCESS TO QUALITY PROGRAMS - THE EXPANSION OF THE NEW E3 SCHOOL & UVA STREAMIN3 MODEL TO BE AVAILABLE TO ALL STATE FUNDED EARLY LEARNING PROGRAMS - THE EXPANSION OF THE VIRGINIA KINDERGARTEN READINESS PROGRAM (VKRP) TO ALL 132 SCHOOL DIVISIONS AND STATE- FUNDED PRESCHOOL PROGRAMS OUR INVESTMENT IS PAYING OFF AND MOVING THE METER IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION FOR CHILDREN. IN 2020, 52% OF OUR CHILDREN WERE NOT READY FOR KINDERGARTEN IN LITERACY, MATH, SOCIAL SKILLS OR SELF-REGULATION. IN 2021, 42% WERE NOT READY. THE PANDEMIC HAS CAUSED EVEN MORE OF OUR CHILDREN TO FALL BEHIND. THE LEARNING, READING AND MATH GAPS HAVE WIDENED. MORE CHILDREN IN K-2 ARE AT HIGH RISK OF READING FAILURE. THAT IS WHY E3 PIVOTED TO RAISE AWARENESS, ADVOCATE AND CREATE INNOVATIVE INITIATIVES THAT FOCUS ON THE FIRST EIGHT YEARS OF A CHILD'S LIFE TO CLOSE THE OPPORTUNITY GAPS FOR ALL CHILDREN AND FAMILIES FROM EARLY LEARNING ON UP. 1867373 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 12 12 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 VA X X BRUNKE & COMPANY 7572220134 2809 S LYNNHAVEN ROAD SUITE 300 VIRGINIA BEACH VA 23452 LISA J HOWARD PRESIDENT & CEO 40.00 X X 190972 0 12021 TOMMY JOHNSON DIRECTOR EMERITUS 1.00 X 0 0 0 JANE BATTEN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 GIL BLAND BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 ANGELICA LIGHT CHAIR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 LAURA MAJOR VICE CHAIR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 LISA ROBERTSON DIRECTOR EMERITUS 1.00 X 0 0 0 JAVAID E SIDDIQI BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 LAURA NOVEY BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 TAG GREASON BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 HOWARD KERN TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 G GIL MINOR III BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 DR JOHN GORDON BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 190972 0 12021 1 0 1 0 YUMMY GOODNESS CATERING INC 317 VILLAGE RD 109 VIRGINIA BEACH VA 23454 SCHOOL LUNCHES 245310 MCGUIRE WOODS LLP 101 WEST MAIN STREET NORFOLK VA 23510 GOVERNMENT RELATIONS 160426 2 1595574 1595574 TUITION & FEES 611600 1308926 1308926 1308926 2545 2545 OTHER INCOME 900099 11 11 11 2907056 1308937 0 2545 190972 162326 28646 919815 812339 82433 25043 115873 103627 11587 659 9154 9154 71577 71577 15015 7508 7507 199374 179436 19938 12224 6113 6111 16770 13586 3184 93940 84547 9393 2856 2570 286 4850 2425 2425 112603 101343 11260 26291 23662 2629 LUNCH PROGRAMS 245310 245310 GOVERNMENT RELATIONS 70426 70426 MISCELLANEOUS 54185 54185 CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT 34372 32544 1828 21880 19611 2269 2217487 1867373 324412 25702 2375375 2912616 285999 540000 27631 20305 3595099 763516 2940694 2831583 5629699 6304504 48293 32160 34041 35410 82334 67570 X 4957619 4998761 589746 1238173 5547365 6236934 5629699 6304504 689569 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 633327 1087532 709748 865320 1595574 4891501 633327 1087532 709748 865320 1595574 4891501 4891501 1886 1899 11555 9457 2545 27342 4918843 0.99440 0.99400 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 70426 70426 2147116 2217542 260877 65219 0 0 231566 243247 252616 260877 988306 1482459 97346 38406 120222 70426 326400 57892 60812 63154 65219 247077 370616 3411421 588246 2823175 183678 175270 8408 2831583 X PART X, LINE 2: THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES IT HAS HAVE APPROPRIATE SUPPORT FOR TAX POSITIONS TAKEN AND, AS SUCH, DOES NOT BELIEVE THERE ARE ANY UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS THAT ARE MATERIAL TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
