| Mission | THE MISSION OF THE PHILADELPHIA EDUCATION FUND (THE ED FUND), AN INDEPENDENT NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION, IS TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF PUBLIC EDUCATION IN PHILADELPHIA AND THE REGION, SO THAT YOUTH ARE PREPARED FOR COLLEGE AND CAREERS. SINCE 1985, THE ED FUND, WHICH RANKS AS ONE OF THE PREMIER ORGANIZATIONS AMONG THE MORE THAN 75 LOCAL EDUCATION FUNDS COMPRISING THE PUBLIC EDUCATION NETWORK, HAS PARTNERED WITH SCHOOLS, SCHOOL DISTRICTS, UNIVERSITIES, BUSINESSES, AND NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS TO DEVELOP SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY-BASED PROGRAMS AND POLICIES AIMED AT PROVIDING CHILDREN IN THE PHILADELPHIA REGION ACCESS TO THE BEST POSSIBLE EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES. THREE PRIMARY GOALS GUIDE THE WORK OF THE PHILADELPHIA EDUCATION FUND: * INCREASE THE NUMBER OF PUBLIC SECONDARY SCHOOLS (GRADES 6 - 12) THAT ARE HIGH PERFORMING; * INCREASE THE NUMBER OF PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS WHO ACCESS POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION AND PERSIST TO COMPLETION; * POSITION THE PHILADELPHIA REGION AS CENTRAL TO STATE AND NATIONAL | MissionDesc |

| Desc | THE PHILADELPHIA EDUCATION FUND HAS A LONG AND DISTINGUISHED HISTORY OF PREPARING NEW TEACHERS FOR PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND WORKING WITH TEACHERS TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF TEACHING AND LEARNING IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THE ED FUND ALSO WORKS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH SCHOOLS AND SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO PROVIDE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ON ISSUES OF TEACHING AND LEARNING, INCLUDING WHOLE-SCHOOL REFORM. THE ED FUND'S TEACHING AND LEARNING PROGRAMS INCLUDE: * PHILADELPHIA TEACHER RESIDENCY (PTR) IS A TEACHER PREPARATION PROGRAM FOR SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, AND MATH (STEM) PROFESSIONALS AND RECENT GRADUATES WHO WANT TO TEACH MATH AND SCIENCE IN PHILADELPHIA'S HIGH NEED SCHOOLS (GRADES 7-12). PTR IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE PHILADELPHIA EDUCATION FUND, THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA GRADUATE SCHOOL OF EDUCATION (PENN GSE) AND THE DREXEL UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF EDUCATION & THE ACADEMY OF NATURAL SCIENCES OF DREXEL UNIVERSITY. FOR A FULL SCHOOL YEAR, PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS (RESIDENTS) WILL LEARN AT THE ELBOW OF EXPERIENCED TEACHERS IN PHILADELPHIA SECONDARY SCHOOL CLASSROOMS. AT THE SAME TIME, THEY WILL TAKE COURSEWORK AT EITHER THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA GRADUATE SCHOOL OF EDUCATION OR DREXEL UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF EDUCATION TO EARN BOTH A MASTER'S DEGREE AS WELL AS PENNSYLVANIA TEACHER CERTIFICATION. RESIDENTS COMMIT TO TEACH IN PHILADELPHIA PUBLIC SCHOOLS, INCLUDING CHARTER SCHOOLS, FOR AT LEAST THREE YEARS AFTER THE RESIDENCY YEAR OF PREPARATION. FOR THE GRADUATED RESIDENT'S FIRST THREE YEARS AS A FULL-TIME TEACHER OF RECORD, PTR PROVIDES ONGOING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES AND NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES. PTR IS SINGULARLY FOCUSED ON THE THOROUGH PREPARATION OF MATH AND SCIENCE TEACHERS FOR PHILADELPHIA'S HIGH NEED, SECONDARY PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THE FIRST YEAR OF SOLO TEACHING CAN BE INTIMIDATING FOR ANY TEACHER. BUT BY THE TIME RESIDENTS BEGIN A SCHOOL YEAR IN THEIR OWN CLASSROOM, THEY ALREADY HAVE A YEAR OF EXPERIENCE, A THOROUGH UNDERSTANDING OF THE CHALLENGES THAT LIE AHEAD, AND AN ONGOING SUPPORT NETWORK. * DIPLOMAS NOW, NOW EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS, WAS BORN FROM RESEARCH CONDUCTED BY THE PHILADELPHIA EDUCATION FUND (THE ED FUND) AND JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY (JHU) IN 2006 THAT FOLLOWED APPROXIMATELY 13,000 SIXTH GRADERS IN THE 1996-97 SCHOOL YEAR THROUGH TO 2004, A YEAR PAST EXPECTED GRADUATION. AMONG THE MORE THAN 20 VARIABLES SCREENED (INCLUDING STANDARDIZED TEST SCORES, OVERAGE, GENDER, SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS, AND SPECIAL EDUCATION STATUS), THE FOUR VARIABLES THAT EMERGED AS MOST PREDICTIVE OF STUDENT DROP OUT WERE: - LOW ATTENDANCE (LESS THAN 80%) - POOR BEHAVIOR (THREE OR MORE NEGATIVE BEHAVIOR MARKS) - COURSE FAILURE IN LITERACY - COURSE FAILURE IN MATH THE RESEARCH SHOWED THAT STUDENTS WITH ANY OF THE EARLY WARNING INDICATORS HAVE ONLY A 10-20% CHANCE OF GRADUATING FROM HIGH SCHOOL. THESE FOUR VARIABLES MOST PREDICTIVE OF STUDENTS DROPPING OUT OF SCHOOL ARE CALLED THE EARLY WARNING INDICATORS OR ABCS (ATTENDANCE, BEHAVIOR, AND COURSE PASSAGE). THE ED FUND THEN CREATED THE EARLY WARNING INDICATORS/SYSTEMS PROJECT TO SYSTEMATICALLY COMBAT THE ABCS IN THE MIDDLE GRADES. * THE PHILADELPHIA MATH + SCIENCE COALITION, A THRIVING PARTNERSHIP OF 50 BUSINESSES, UNIVERSITIES, THE SCHOOL DISTRICT, THE PHILADELPHIA FEDERATION OF TEACHERS, AND OTHER NON-PROFITS WHICH HAS HELD HUNDREDS OF WORKING GROUP MEETINGS AND CONTRIBUTED THOUSANDS OF HOURS OF IN-KIND SERVICE DURING THE PAST THREE YEARS IN ORDER TO BRING RESOURCES AND EXPERTISE TO IMPROVE LOCALLY WHAT IS A NATIONAL CRISIS - THE QUALITY OF MATH AND SCIENCE INSTRUCTION IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THE COALITION'S VISION IS THAT PHILADELPHIA PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS WILL GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL WITH STRONG STEM KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS, ENABLING THEM TO SUCCEED IN A 21ST CENTURY STEM ECONOMY. THE MISSION OF THE COALITION IS TO FOSTER A COLLABORATIVE, CITY-WIDE STEM STAKEHOLDER COMMUNITY TO COORDINATE RESOURCES THAT SUPPORT PREPARATION OF ALL PHILADELPHIA PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS TO BECOME PRODUCTIVE CITIZENS IN A 21ST CENTURY STEM ECONOMY. * ARTSRISING, A STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH FLEISHER ART MEMORIAL AND PUBLIC CITIZENS FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH, A COMMUNITY-WIDE EFFORT TO IMPROVE AND EXPAND EQUITABLE ACCESS TO HIGH QUALITY ARTS EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHILDREN IN THE GREATER PHILADELPHIA REGION SO THAT YOUTH ARE BETTER ENGAGED IN LEARNING AND FIND MULTIPLE PATHWAYS TO SUCCESS IN SCHOOL AND IN THEIR COMMUNITY.

| Desc | THE GOAL OF THE ED FUND'S DIRECT SERVICES PROGRAMS IS TO BRING THE DREAM OF A COLLEGE EDUCATION WITHIN REACH OF PUBLIC SCHOOL GRADUATES BY PROVIDING INFORMATION AND GUIDANCE ABOUT THE STEPS STUDENTS NEED TO TAKE TO PREPARE FOR COLLEGE AND BY HELPING STUDENTS SECURE THE NECESSARY FUNDS TO ATTEND COLLEGE. WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT OF PHILADELPHIA, CHARTER SCHOOLS, HIGHER EDUCATION, COMMUNITY GROUPS, AND BUSINESSES, THESE PROGRAMS ENHANCE THE SCHOOL CURRICULUM BY PROVIDING COLLEGE ADVISORY SERVICES AND PREPARATORY WORKSHOPS, STANDARDIZED TEST PREPARATION, ACADEMIC ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS, AND OTHER "HANDS-ON" ASSISTANCE TO THOUSANDS OF CITY STUDENTS. THE ED FUND'S DIRECT SERVICES TO STUDENTS INCLUDES: * CREATED IN 1990, THE COLLEGE ACCESS PROGRAM IS PHILADELPHIA'S LARGEST AND MOST BROADLY BASED COLLEGE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. WE HELP MAKE A COLLEGE EDUCATION ACCESSIBLE TO ANYONE INTERESTED IN PURSUING HIGHER EDUCATION REGARDLESS OF AGE, GRADE LEVEL, OR LOCATION. WE SERVE INDIVIDUAL BY PROVIDING DIRECT SERVICES TO MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS FROM SELECT PARTNER SCHOOLS AND OFFERING INDIVIDUALIZED SUPPORT AT OUR PUBLIC COLLEGE ACCESS AND SUCCESS CENTER. * PHILADELPHIA SCHOLARS PROGRAM AWARDS "LAST DOLLAR" SCHOLARSHIPS FOR COLLEGE ACCESS PARTICIPANTS IN GOOD STANDING AT ACCREDITED COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. SCHOLARSHIPS ARE PROVIDED TO GRADUATES OF 18 PUBLIC AND CHARTER HIGH SCHOOLS ACROSS PHILADELPHIA. SINCE 1990, THE PHILADELPHIA SCHOLARS PROGRAM HAS AWARDED OVER $10 MILLION IN "LAST DOLLAR" SCHOLARSHIPS TO MORE THAN 1900 COLLEGE ACCESS STUDENTS. IN THE LAST YEAR, THE PROGRAM SUPPORTED OVER 300 STUDENTS WITH $1 MILLION IN COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS. * THE PHILADELPHIA POSTSECONDARY SUCCESS PROGRAM (PPSP) IS A COLLABORATIVE INITIATIVE DESIGNED TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF LOW-INCOME AND FIRST-GENERATION PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WHO ENROLL AND SUCCEED IN POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION. PPSP WAS INITIALLY SUPPORTED WITH A FIVE-YEAR GRANT FROM THE CITI FOUNDATION TO LAUNCH A NATIONAL POSTSECONDARY SUCCESS PROGRAM, WORKING WITH THREE LOCAL EDUCATION FUNDS IN PHILADELPHIA, MIAMI, AND SAN FRANCISCO. THE ACE GROUP, A MATCH FUNDING PARTNER AFTER THE SECOND YEAR OF THE INITIATIVE, HAS AGREED TO CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE WORK GOING FORWARD. PPSP IS WORKING INITIALLY WITH FOUR PILOT SCHOOLS: * BENJAMIN FRANKLIN HIGH SCHOOL * ROXBOROUGH HIGH SCHOOL * KENSINGTON INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS/FINANCE & ENTREPRENEURIAL HIGH SCHOOL * KENSINGTON CREATIVE AND PERFORMING ARTS HIGH SCHOOL THROUGH A BROAD-BASED PARTNERSHIP TO DEVELOP A MODEL COLLEGE ACCESS AND SUCCESS SYSTEM. THE KEY WORK INCLUDES COORDINATING AND ALIGNING SERVICES THAT SUPPORT COLLEGE PREPARATION, CONTRIBUTING TO SCHOOL-WIDE COLLEGE READINESS CULTURES, AND INVOLVING STUDENT AND PARENTS IN PLANNING FOR COLLEGE BEGINNING IN THE NINTH GRADE. OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS, A UNIQUE AND POWERFUL PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE ED FUND, THE SCHOOL DISTRICT OF PHILADELPHIA AND SEVERAL LOCAL COLLEGES/UNIVERSITIES, HAS DEMONSTRATED THAT THE MAJOR OBSTACLE STANDING BETWEEN OUR STUDENTS AND POSTSECONDARY SUCCESS IS THE ABILITY TO CREATE A CLEAR PATHWAY OF SUPPORTS AND SERVICES FOR ALL STUDENTS. PPSP HAS DEVELOPED PARTNERSHIPS OF STAKEHOLDERS FROM K-12, COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS, POSTSECONDARY INSTITUTIONS, AND THE BUSINESS, FOUNDATION AND CIVIC SECTORS TO IMPROVE ACCESS TO COLLEGE FOR LOW-INCOME AND PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS | Desc |

| Explanation | THE PHILADELPHIA SCHOLARS PROGRAM PROVIDES LAST DOLLAR SCHOLARSHIPS TO GRADUATES OF 18 PUBLIC AND CHARTER HIGH SCHOOLS ACROSS PHILADELPHIA. SINCE THE PROGRAM STARTED IN 1990, WE HAVE GIVEN OUT OVER $10 MILLION TO MORE THAN 1,900 STUDENTS! WE PROVIDE OUR SCHOLARS WITH MENTORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES, WORKSHOPS WITH A COLLEGE SUCCESS AND CAREER PREP FOCUS, AND ONGOING SUPPORT. WE ALSO WORK WITH THE COLLEGE ACCESS PROGRAM, WHICH HELPS STUDENTS GET PREPARED FOR COLLEGE BY HOLDING WORKSHOPS, HELPING STUDENTS APPLY FOR FINANCIAL AID, GIVING ESSAY WRITING ADVICE, AND MORE. WE HAVE COLLEGE ACCESS COORDINATORS AT FIVE HIGH SCHOOLS AND AT OUR PUBLIC COLLEGE ACCESS AND SUCCESS CENTER. THE LAST DOLLAR SCHOLARSHIP IS A NEED-BASED "GAP-FILLING" AWARD. IT IS AWARDED WHEN A FAMILY'S EXPECTED FAMILY CONTRIBUTION (EFC) AND FINANCIAL AID PACKAGE TOTAL ARE LESS THAN THE COST OF ATTENDANCE; RESULTING IN UNMET FINANCIAL NEED. THROUGH THE PHILADELPHIA EDUCATION FUND, THE PHILADELPHIA SCHOLARS PROGRAM ADMINISTERS LAST DOLLAR SCHOLARSHIPS TO HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES OF OUR COLLEGE ACCESS PROGRAM AND PARTNER HIGH SCHOOLS WHO HAVE A DOCUMENTED UNMET NEED BETWEEN $200 AND $4,000 DURING AN ACADEMIC YEAR. GRADUATING HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS WHO ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE IN THE PHILADELPHIA EDUCATION FUND COLLEGE ACCESS PROGRAM WITHIN ONE OF THE FIVE COLLEGE ACCESS PROGRAM SCHOOLS ARE ELIGIBLE TO APPLY. ALSO GRADUATING HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS AT PARTNER SCHOOLS ARE ABLE TO APPLY AND RECEIVE INFORMATION FROM THEIR GUIDANCE COUNSELOR AND MAY BE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE SCHOLARSHIP MONEY CONTINGENT ON AVAILABLE FUNDING. STUDENTS APPLY FOR GRANTS THROUGH THE ONLINE APPLICATION PROCESS. COMPLETED APPLICATIONS, ALONG WITH REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION ARE REVIEWED BY ED FUND PERSONNEL. SCHOLARSHIPS ARE DETERMINED BY SUBTRACTING THE EXPECTED FAMILY CONTRIBUTION (EFC) AND FINANCIAL AID PACKAGE FROM YOUR COLLEGE'S TOTAL COST OF ATTENDANCE. ANNUAL AWARD AMOUNTS WILL RANGE FROM $200 TO $4,000 DEPENDING ON NEED. STUDENTS CAN ONLY RECEIVE LAST DOLLAR SCHOLARSHIPS IF THEY HAVE UNMET FINANCIAL NEED, WHICH THE PHILADELPHIA SCHOLARS DETERMINES BY USING THE ABOVE FORMULA. IF A STUDENT DOES NOT DEMONSTRATE UNMET NEED, THEN HE/SHE WILL BE INELIGIBLE FOR THE LAST DOLLAR SCHOLARSHIP. SCHOLARSHIPS ARE RENEWAL FOR UP TO SIX YEARS. STUDENTS MUST REAPPLY EACH YEAR AND MET CERTAIN REQUIREMENTS: 1) STUDENTS MUST HAVE A DOCUMENTED UNMET NEED THAT IS WITHIN $200 - $4,000; 2) STUDENTS MUST BE ENROLLED FULL-TIME (12 OR MORE CREDITS PER SEMESTER) PURSUING AN ASSOCIATE'S OR BACHELOR'S DEGREE FROM AN ACCREDITED INSTITUTION; AND, 3) STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE IN TEN (10) HOURS OF COMMUNITY SERVICE EACH ACADEMIC YEAR THAT THEY REAPPLY FOR THE SCHOLARSHIP. REQUESTS FOR SCHOLARSHIP DISBURSEMENTS ARE SENT TO THE FINANCE DEPARTMENT ALONG WITH ALL SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION FOR REVIEW AND APPROVAL. DISBURSEMENTS FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR ARE MADE TWICE A YEAR, IN THE FALL AND SPRING SEMESTERS. EACH SCHOLARSHIP DISBURSEMENT IS IN THE COLLEGE AND STUDENTS NAME AND REQUIRES DUAL ENDORSEMENTS. IN ADDITION, EACH SCHOLARSHIP CHECK IS SENT ALONG WITH A LETTER REQUESTING THE FINANCIAL AID OFFICE CONFIRM THAT THE STUDENT IS ENROLLED AT THE COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY AS A FULL TIME STUDENT. IF THE STUDENT IS ENROLLED LESS THAN FULL TIME OR TRANSFERRED, THE FINANCIAL AID OFFICE IS REQUESTED TO INDICATE THE STUDENT'S STATUS ON THE LETTER AND RETURN THE CHECK. | ExplanationTxt |
