DescAccomplishments in Oakland- Teachers received a significant raise to better attract and retain great teachers in Oakland. Throughout the year, GO advocated for a significant, fiscally responsible raise resulting in an ongoing raise of 11.88 percent by January 2016. The new contract gives school communities increased flexibility on staffing, program, and schedule to better serve students. Giving teachers, parents, and principals more power to decide who teaches in their schools is an important step in ensuring that every student in Oakland has an effective teacher.- GO staff continued to work closely with Oakland Unified Schools District (OUSD) leaders and teachers to implement the Teacher Growth and Development System (TGDS), a multiple-measure teacher evaluation system that provides educators with regular, actionable feedback. The district is on track for a complete rollout of the system for a one-year pilot during the 2016-17 school year.- GOs Teacher Policy Fellows have been working to increase teacher voice, participation, and knowledge about key policies in Oakland. Last spring 2015, our fellows held a forum on OUSDs Intensive School Support Initiative and Call for Quality Schools policies to gather over 30 educators' thoughts on those policies share them with OUSD leadership.- Throughout 2015, GO convened and hosted regular meetings of the Quality Schools Working Group (QSWG), which are attended by leaders of charter networks, OUSD, philanthropy, human capital, and community organizations. - GO led the QSWG to collaborate on a change.org petition. Signed by 789 Oaklanders, this petition in February 2015 demonstrated a strong community perspective in support of bold implementation of OUSDs Quality Schools Development Policy. Hard copies were delivered to school board members and Superintendent Wilson by parents and educators at a school board meeting.- GO informs and supports community members and engages education leaders to advance district leadership and policies that provide quality education to every child.- GO monitored every school board meeting and informed and mobilized the community to ensure that resources were directed toward school needs.- GO helped forge closer relationships between the OUSD executive leadership team, the school board, and local charter administrators. With our partners, we released the fourth annual Oakland Achieves report.Desc

DescAccomplishments in West Contra Costa Unified Schools District (WCCUSD)-GO launched its first issue-based campaign, Black Minds Matter, to engage those interested in improving education in the WCCUSD and establish our organization as a trusted source of information. This campaign serves as a platform to listen to the unique needs and challenges faced by West Contra Costas Black students. GO then co-hosted a Black Minds Matter Data Equity Walk with the Education-Trust West and Blackboard of West Contra Costa with more than 120 attendees and an Action Planning Kickoff with more than 80 attendees. Of these individuals, 17 network members have formed a planning team that meets bi-monthly to research and dialogue with experts on three priority areas that emerged from our discussions with the community: early childhood education, college and career readiness, and school climate. -GO served as a source of information and dialogue during the search for the new WCCUSD Superintendent. GO provided bilingual resources and elevated community perspectives on the new superintendent from the outset of the process and conducted a community survey to gather families perspectives. GO is cultivating a strong working relationship with the newly selected superintendent as part of a broader goal of establishing and nurturing connections with senior district, civic, and education leaders in West Contra Costa. GO also provides information and resources on education leaders to its base, broadening our impact to serve individuals across the entire district.Desc

Form 990, Part III, Line 2: New ServicesThe organization has an office in Richmond, CA now as well as in Oakland, CA.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review ProcessThe tax return is prepared by an outside accounting firm. After completion of said returns, the organization is sent a draft of the tax returns to be reviewed and examined. The organization makes copies of the returns and distributes to those individuals charged with governance. Those individuals at that time can review and if applicable discuss any line items in the return with the accountant who has prepared the return. If all items are found to be acceptable, an authorization is signed and provided to authorize the outside accounting firm to process, sign and provide copies of the returns to be filed (paper or electronically) with the designated governmental agencies. The tax returns are then signed by the organization, stamped and mailed with certified return receipt or the signed form 8879 is provided to the outside accounting firm allowing electronic filing.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of ConflictsThe organization's employee has a duty to promptly disclose any transaction they believe may involve a conflict of interest. When any employee becomes aware of a conflict of interest transaction (whether before or after the transaction takes place), each employee is expected to disclose to the Executive Director all material facts regarding the nature of the conflict of interest and the parties involved. When informed of the details of the transactions, the Executive Director determines if a conflict of interest exists and, if so, the remedy to ensure the transaction is reasonable. Employees or board members involved in the potential conflict of interest transaction are excluded from the decision-making process. At any meeting of the Board of Directors at which a transaction involving a board member or a person affiliated with a board member will be considered, said Director will disclose to the other members of the Board all material facts regarding the nature of the transaction or the Director's affiliation with any person or entity with whom the Board is considering entering into any transaction. After a conflict of interest disclosures is made by a Director at a Board meeting, said Director will leave the meeting while the implications of the affiliation are considered and voted upon. The remaining board members will determine whether a conflict of interest exists.
