DescriptionEdWorks, LLCDuring fiscal year 2013 more than 87% of EdWorks technical assistance efforts focused on the design and implementation of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) and Early College High Schools. A growing number of schools, 23%, served students in grades K-8. In all, EdWorks provided professional development technical assistance for more than 640 teachers in 40 schools, reaching more than 16,000 students. Fiscal year 2013 marked a decade since the launch of Early College High Schools by EdWorks. After a decade, the results from these Early College High Schools are impressive. The overwhelming majority of the students in our schools are same ones that would be considered "turnaround school" students. Some 87% of students in our schools are considered low income or "turnaround" students vs. 58% in competitors' schools. This shows a track record of success with the most challenged students, in the most distressed schools and communities. Data collected in Ohio, the site of EdWorks/KnowledgeWorks' initial Early College High Schools, show 97% of these students graduate from high school; 79% earn at least 1 year of college credit while in high school; one in three earn an associate degree or two years of college credit while in high school; 95% continue in higher education; and 87% persist to a four-year degree, most within two or three years after graduating from the Early college High School.Description

DescriptionIncluded in the other program services are Strive Partnership, National Advocacy & Strategic Foresight, Grantmaking and Student Lending, described below.** Strive Partnership - The Strive Partnership launched several large initiatives, most notably, Read On! the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky region's campaign to improve early grade-level reading. Read On! has catalyzed collaborative action in new areas such as attendance and summer learning; has begun aligning funding to scale programs and practices that are proven to impact early childhood and early grade-level reading; and has contributed to new policy and advocacy work through the Cincinnati Preschool Promise, a burgeoning effort to provide universal access to quality preschool for Cincinnati children. Be the Change, the Partnership's tutor recruitment campaign, had a successful year with nearly 700 tutors placed in schools. The Strive Partnership aligned funding to support a new district-wide tutoring coordinator within Cincinnati Public Schools to continuously improve and grow that effort. The Strive Partnership also increased its support for the Learning Partner Dashboard so schools in Cincinnati and Covington can begin using data more effectively, and began planning a data analytics unit to launch in 2014.** National Advocacy & Strategic Foresight - From July 2012 to June 2013, KnowledgeWorks worked closely with policymakers, national organizations, and key media outlets to drive demand for innovative learning environments. Throughout the year, KnowledgeWorks advised sixteen state departments of education, including our home state of Ohio, on development and implementation of comprehensive school improvement systems. KnowledgeWorks also engaged federal policymakers and partner organizations on a number of topics including competency education and high school redesign including releasing multiple publications on those topics and holding several briefings with senior officials at the U.S. Department of Education. Over that time, KnowledgeWorks created and deployed digital publishing strategy and platform that included the publishing of over 100 blog posts and quarterly newsletters to over 25,000 subscribers, the integration of three satellite websites and the Future of Education website into the KnowledgeWorks' website; all while increasing website page views by 27% and blog page views by 82%. In addition, KnowledgeWorks issues 28 national press releases on a myriad of topics including the accomplishments of our subsidiaries, Digital Learning Day, and the release of KnowledgeWorks' third future forecast. KnowledgeWorks used that third forecast, Forecast 3.0: Recombinant Education, to create a vision for the future of learning through 15 events and with 12 organizations around the country to identify ways of taking action in the present that will help make that vision a reality. KnowledgeWorks also distributed 18,186 copies Forecast 3.0 to countries around the world.Grant-making - The Grant making program provided approximately $622,000 of grant funding to 81 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, Line 2:ReturnReference
ExplanationThe 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, 2013 and 2012. 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
