WE WORK WITH LARGE URBAN SCHOOL SYSTEMS TO TRANSFORM THEIR RESOURCE USE TO DRAMATICALLY IMPROVE STUDENT LEARNING. ERS HAS DEVELOPED A VISION FOR HOW SCHOOLS CAN STRATEGICALLY MANAGE THEIR RESOURCES TO SUPPORT STUDENTS, AND HOW SCHOOL SYSTEMS CAN ORGANIZE TO SUPPORT SCHOOLS IN THESE EFFORTS. WE WORK HAND-IN-HAND WITH DISTRICTS TO IMPLEMENT SOLUTIONS THAT ENABLE SCHOOL SYSTEMS TO REALIZE THIS TRANSFORMATION. 1166695 3822 KNOWLEDGE AND RESEARCHERS IS THE ONLY ORGANIZATION WITH MORE THAN 10 YEARS' EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH THE LARGEST URBAN SCHOOL SYSTEMS IN THE COUNTRY IN THE AREA OF STRATEGIC RESOURCE ALLOCATION. WE HAVE WORKED WITH MORE THAN 20 SCHOOL SYSTEMS NATIONWIDE TO INTRODUCE INNOVATIVE AND EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS. ERS IS COMMITTED TO DISSEMINATING THE KNOWLEDGE GAINED FROM OUR EXPERIENCE AND RESEARCH BY PROVIDING INFORMATION DIRECTLY TO DISTRICT LEADERS, PARTNERING WITH NATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS TO GET THE WORD OUT, AND CONVENING THOUGHT LEADERS AND PRACTITIONERS. 981814 403186 TOOLSERS HAS DEVELOPED A COLLECTION OF RESOURCES AND TOOLS TO AID DISTRICTS AND SCHOOLS TO IN IDENTIFY AREAS OF UNINTENTIONAL 'MISALIGNMENT', WHERE SPENDING PATTERNS DO NOT ACTUALLY SUPPORT STRATEGIC GOALS THAT WILL LEAD TO HIGH PERFORMING SCHOOLS. VARIOUS TOOLS ARE AVAILABLE TO SUPPORT DISTRICT LEADERS IN BOTH GETTING A QUICK OVERVIEW OF RESOURCE ALLOCATION CHALLENGES AND IN CONDUCTING IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS USING ACTUAL DISTRICT AND SCHOOL-LEVEL DATA. SOME ARE AVAILABLE TO DOWNLOAD FROM THE ERS WEBSITE AT NO COST. 3525339 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 24 0 1 31 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 4 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 MA X X KAREN H MILES 6176078000 1 BROOK STREET WATERTOWN MA 02472 ELLEN GUINEY X 0 0 0 MARCIA BLENKO X 0 0 0 WILLIS HAWLEY X 0 0 0 URI TREISMAN X 0 0 0 KAREN H MILES 40.00 X 111530 0 5627 KAREN BAROODY 16.00 X 62500 0 0 STEPHEN FRANK 40.00 X 168800 0 8562 REGIS SHIELDS 40.00 X 151065 0 10967 JONATHAN TRAVERS 40.00 X 153741 0 13809 DON HOVEY 40.00 X 167441 0 9809 KRISTAN SINGLETON 40.00 X 123000 0 6263 938077 0 55037 6 0 1 0 VERNDALE CORPORATION 320 CONGRESS STREET BOSTON MA 02210 SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT 677160 DATABASE DESIGN ASSOCIATES INC 101 TREMONT STREET SUITE 614 BOSTON MA 02108 SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT 141821 JURA CHUNG 1 BROOK STREET WATERTOWN MA 02472 COMMUNICATIONS CONTRACTOR 108124 3 4199208 4199208 DISTRICT REVENUE 611710 1249326 1249326 TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT 611710 110468 110468 OTHER EARNED INCOME 611710 51210 51210 1411004 9791 9791 5620003 1411004 0 9791 183157 145166 22961 15030 1562451 1348279 183333 30839 54350 48420 5056 874 64226 56980 5934 1312 151955 134812 14038 3105 4250 4250 20551 20551 844420 833007 11413 128351 113885 11846 2620 127031 112699 11736 2596 239295 221017 10575 7703 14606 12732 1506 368 354604 346973 6823 808 8936 8936 PRINTING AND POSTAGE 151779 148836 2891 52 PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMEN 9853 610 9238 5 BOOKS AND SUBSCRIPTIONS 2347 1625 656 66 BANK CHARGES AND FEES 702 702 MISCELLANEOUS 655 298 357 3923519 3525339 332802 65378 1688527 1632878 1863000 3406995 362149 415153 18928 22437 2139598 516345 1229013 1623253 12000 12000 5173617 7112716 74523 317138 74523 317138 X 986224 1283830 4112870 5511748 5099094 6795578 5173617 7112716 1696484 X 0 1 0 X 0 X 1306535 1861951 865513 3523192 4199208 11756399 1306535 1861951 865513 3523192 4199208 11756399 8207334 3549065 5957 30908 24867 22640 9791 94163 11850562 5293257 0.29950 0.36550 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 38165 10750 27415 101673 63296 38377 1999760 442299 1557461 1623253 5620003 3923519 1696484 0 1696484 5620003 0 5620003 0 5620003 3923519 0 3923519 0 3923519 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 STEPHEN FRANK 168800 0 0 0 0 0 8250 0 312 0 177362 0 0 0 REGIS SHIELDS 151065 0 0 0 0 0 7733 0 3234 0 162032 0 0 0 JONATHAN TRAVERS 153741 0 0 0 0 0 8000 0 5809 0 167550 0 0 0 DON HOVEY 167441 0 0 0 0 0 4000 0 5809 0 177250 0 0 0 FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 2 THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S FATHER IS A MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
