DescSince 2008, the Alliance has leveraged over $10 million to help implement the school district's strategic plans. In 2016, the Alliance's strategic work included: Seattle Teacher Residency: The Seattle Teacher Residency (STR) continues to successfully recruit, train and support a diverse pipeline of high quality teachers trained specifically to teach in Seattle's highest need schools. STR's mission is to accelerate student achievement through the preparation, support, and retention of exceptional teachers who reflect the rich diversity in Seattle Public Schools. (See Section O for further details):The STR seeks to reduce the achievement gap for students from historically underperforming schools and increase opportunities for them to succeed in school, career and life. Some highlights of the successes in 2016 include: - More than 1,700 students in 31 Title I schools have benefitted from teachers trained with critical social-emotional and cultural competencies through the STR program. In schools where three or more STR graduates have been teaching for at least a year, students' passing rates increased 8.8% in science and 12.5% in math from 2015 to 2016.- When 23 residents of the 2016 Cohort 4 graduate in August 2017, there will be 97 STR-trained teachers serving thousands of students year after year in high-need public schools in Seattle. 19 Cohort 5 residents will start the program in 2017 which will include 14 months of graduate level coursework and in-classroom apprenticeships.- 90% of the Cohort 1 graduates completed their third year of teaching at the same schools where they started, compared to the national three-year retention rate of 55%.- 93% of the Cohort 2 graduates completed their second year of teaching in the same schools where they started.- 96.5% of the Cohort 3 graduates completed their first year of teaching and will return to the same school next year.- 48% of current Cohort 4 residents are teachers of color compared to 20% of other Seattle Public School teachers in a district where 54% of students are students of color.Other Educational Investments in 2016 included: - Foster Award: An event to award the winner of the Thomas B. Foster Award for Excellence given to an exceptional Principal with $50,000 to use in their school.- Alliance for Education Community Breakfast: A community event celebrating SPS accomplishments and raising funds for our work on behalf of Seattle Public Schools.- STR Welcome Panel: Q&A with STR alumni, residents, mentors, and instructors during the first day of STR Selection Day at the John Stanford Center. - STR Reception: A celebration of Cohort 3's completion of the Seattle Teacher Residency program and an opportunity to welcome Cohort 4.Desc
