| Description | Teaching Academies and Teacher Development - Academy for Urban School Leadership (AUSL) created the Chicago Teacher Residency program, which prepares new, highly effective teachers using an innovative approach based on an intense, full-year apprenticeship of learning and training with a mentor teacher. The program is based in neighborhood Chicago Public Schools (CPS) managed by AUSL. During the program, residents take Master's level coursework, earn a degree from National Louis University, and become eligible for an Illinois educator license (if not already licensed). Upon completion of the program, as teachers in CPS schools, the graduates become part of a growing resource of specially trained teachers prepared to dramatically improve chronically underperforming Chicago Public Schools. As of June 2013, AUSL has trained 655 teacher residents committed to teaching in high-poverty areas in Chicago. AUSL continues to provide teacher professional development for teachers across the AUSL network of 29 schools, including individualized coaching and school-based, network-wide professional development programs. These highly effective teachers serve over 17,000 students. | Description |

| Description | Turnaround Schools - The Board of Education of Chicago Public Schools selects failing schools in need of critical transformation and contracts with AUSL to manage the turnaround process on its behalf. AUSL executes a rigorous, comprehensive and proven whole-school turnaround model that has become a national model for reform. The transformation begins with new leadership, additional after-school programs, newly renovated facilities, and new staff, many of whom were trained by AUSL to teach in chronically failing urban schools. The transformation is further supported with AUSL turnaround management which includes curriculum development, performance management, teacher development, curricular enhancements, as well as assistance with parental involvement and community initiatives. A new climate and culture of success at the school is based on high expectations for student achievement. Overall, the CPS schools managed by AUSL have demonstrated consistent yearly improvement in state testing standards, outperforming similar CPS neighborhood schools and district averages. | Description |

The federal and state returns of AUSL for the tax years 2009, 2010 and 2011 are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they were filed. | Explanation |
