DescriptionEdWorks, LLCDuring fiscal year 2012, the EdWorks technical assistance team provided professional development for more than 500 teachers in 39 schools across 24 districts in six states, impacting a total of 14,396 students. Three distinct technical assistance models guide EdWorks' support to schools, including EdWorks New Start, EdWorks Fast Track and EdWorks' STEMLab. During FY2012, 40% of the sites implemented the EdWorks' New Start model and 58% implemented the EdWorks Fast Track model. Results included reduced dropout rates, increases in English language arts scores and a higher percentage of students on track for a 4-year high school graduation rate. In STEMLab sites, EdWorks' newest technical assistance model, students outperform their peers across the state, not just in mathematics and science, but in reading and social studies, as well. As signature elements of EdWorks' STEMLab strategy, students participate in hands-on, real world engineering design challenges with local STEM business and industry partners.Description

DescriptionStrive: Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky, LLC (Strive)In its national Cradle to Career work, Strive reached the benchmark of having over 150 communities reach out for assistance in implementing collective impact initiatives using the Cradle to Career Civic Infrastructure framework. During the year, Strive saw 80 communities participate in its national network. Each community engages a variety of sectors, including education, youth development, philanthropy, civic, and business. Strive also embarked on the delivery of tools and resources to help communities better use data to drive decisions, including the Community Impact Report Card and the Student Success Dashboard. The Strive Partnership focused efforts on improving academic achievement in the Greater Cincinnati region's urban core and creating work groups around its shared outcomes to better align resources and funding. The Partnership realized success with coordinating volunteer recruitment through their initiative "Be the Change". The initiative recruits volunteer tutors from the business community and community at large to spend one hour a week tutoring an elementary student in Cincinnati Public Schools (CPS). The Partnership also worked with local school districts to incorporate the Learning Partner Dashboard, a data system that tracks the performance of students into the work of all resource coordinators within the districts.Description

DescriptionIncluded in the other program services are Ohio Education Matters, National Advocacy & State Cultivation, Organizational Learning & Innovation, Grantmaking and Student Lending, described below.Ohio Education Matters (OEM) - From July 2011 to June 2012, the OEM team worked with state leaders and education stakeholders to create more learning opportunities for students and more efficient delivery of education services. OEM helped state leaders think through new policies on the use of digital and blending learning that called for better use of technology to improve learning. OEM sponsored forums and events that brought national experts on digital learning to Ohio to meet with educators and stakeholders. In February, OEM sponsored Digital Learning Day activities to draw attention to the advantages of digital learning. To help promote efficiency in schools, OEM sponsored a statewide conference in November to share best practices of school districts that were identified as getting more for their money in non-instructional spending. KnowledgeWorks also continued support for the Ohio 8 school districts and union leaders to help promote collaboration, and continued to sponsor the Transformational Dialogue for Public Education - a multi-year initiative where education leaders and stakeholders come together on long-term strategies for state education improvement. National Advocacy & State Cultivation - From July 2011 to June 2012, KnowledgeWorks worked closely with policymakers and national organizations to drive demand for innovative learning environments. Throughout the year, KnowledgeWorks advised fourteen state departments of education on development and implementation of comprehensive school improvement systems. Conversations focused on flexibility and innovation within the federal School Improvement Grant program and development of new state accountability systems under the Obama Administration's Elementary and Secondary Education (ESEA) Act waiver package. Two KnowledgeWorks' publications released this year informed these conversations: - A Guide to School Improvement Grant Implementation and Transforming to a World of Learning: An ESEA State Waiver Strategy Document. KnowledgeWorks also engaged federal policymakers on a number of topics, helping shape the U.S. Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee's bipartisan ESEA reauthorization bill, the School Improvement Grant Program, and the Race to the Top - District program. The release of KnowledgeWorks' first federal policy agenda in July 2011. - Transforming to A World of Learning: A Federal Policy Agenda, provided the framework for these discussions. In addition to shaping state and federal policy, KnowledgeWorks secured a $3 million Investing in Innovation (i3) Grant in partnership with the Riley Institute at Furman University to establish two STEM NTN schools in rural South Carolina along the underserved, underrepresented I-95 corridor. Organizational Learning & Innovation (OLI) - KnowledgeWorks' OLI group worked to create a vision for the future of learning and identify ways of taking action in the present that will help make that vision a reality. It distributed and conducted presentations on, and designed learning experiences around KnowledgeWorks' second future forecast, the 2020 Forecast: Creating the Future of Learning (http://futureofed.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/2020-Forecast.pdf). OLI researched and created the third futures publication, Recombinant Education; Regenerating the Learning Ecosystem. It is expected that more than 10,000 copies of the publication will be distributed in the first quarter of FY2013. OLI continued to impact the strategic planning processes of major national education organizations, including the Council of Chief State School Officers and Grantmaker's for Education. Grant-making - The Grant making program provided approximately $1.3 million of grant funding to 100 organizations.KnowledgeWorks and its subsidiary, KnowledgeFunding Ohio, served approximately 23,000 students during the fiscal year through its student lending programs.Description

IdentifierDescription of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:Identifier
Return ReferencePart X:ReturnReference
ExplanationOn July 1, 2009, the Foundation adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes, which prescribed a comprehensive model for how an organization should measure, recognize, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that an organization has taken or expects to take on a tax return. The Foundation has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the IRS and all state jurisdictions where it operates. The Foundation believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the Foundation's financial position, statement of activities, or cash flows. Accordingly, the Foundation has not recorded any reserves or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at June 30, 2012 and 2011. In the event interest and penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits, the Foundation would recognize such amounts as a component of income tax expense.Explanation
