Explanation
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1
DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION ACTIVITIES: MISSION AND VISION BEYOND 12 IS A SAN FRANCISCO BASED, NATIONAL NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION WHOSE MISSION IS TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF FIRST GENERATION, UNDERREPRESENTED AND LOW-INCOME STUDENTS WHO GRADUATE FROM OUR NATION'S COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES. THROUGH AN INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM AND A STUDENT COACHING SERVICE, BEYOND 12 ACTS AS A DATA AND SERVICE BRIDGE BETWEEN OUR LOWER AND HIGHER EDUCATION SYSTEMS TO HELP HIGH SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES PROVIDE THEIR STUDENTS WITH THE ACADEMIC, SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT THEY NEED TO SUCCEED IN HIGHER EDUCATION. BEYOND 12'S VISION IS THAT ONE DAY, ALL STUDENTS WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO EARN A COLLEGE DEGREE THAT PROVIDES THEM WITH MEANINGFUL ECONOMIC AND PERSONAL PROSPECTS. THEIR HIGH SCHOOLS WILL PREPARE THEM TO HANDLE THE CHALLENGING ACADEMIC, FINANCIAL AND SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT THEY WILL ENCOUNTER IN COLLEGE. ONCE ON CAMPUS, THEY WILL HAVE THE SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE THEY NEED TO GRADUATE WITH A VALUABLE DEGREE, ONE THAT ALLOWS THEM TO PROVIDE FOR THEIR FAMILIES, CONTRIBUTE TO SOCIETY AND BREAK THE CYCLE OF POVERTY FOR THE NEXT GENERATION. BY CREATING A CRITICAL FEEDBACK LOOP BETWEEN HIGH SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES, BEYOND 12 ELIMINATES THE ARTIFICIAL BARRIERS BETWEEN BOTH SYSTEMS AND FORMALIZES THE SHARING OF DATA SO STUDENTS ARE EQUIPPED TO THRIVE AND SUCCEED AT ALL LEVELS OF THEIR EDUCATIONAL JOURNEY. PROGRAMS & SERVICES BEYOND 12 IS A TECHNOLOGY-BASED SERVICES ORGANIZATION THAT ADVANCES ITS MISSION THROUGH TWO CORE ACTIVITIES: AN INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY PRODUCT AND A PERSONALIZED COACHING SERVICE. LONGITUDINAL STUDENT TRACKING (THE TECHNOLOGY) THE BEYOND 12 PLATFORM ALLOWS HIGH SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES TO COLLECT, TRACK, ANALYZE AND SHARE LONGITUDINAL STUDENT PERFORMANCE DATA. KEY COMPONENTS OF THE SYSTEM INCLUDE: *A FIRST-OF-ITS KIND ALUMNI TRACKER THAT ALLOWS HIGH SCHOOLS TO TRACK THEIR ALUMNI'S QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COLLEGE DATA TO ENABLE THEM TO EVALUATE THE EFFICACY OF THEIR COLLEGE-READINESS MODELS AND TO INFORM FUTURE PROGRAM DESIGN; *A STUDENT ENGAGEMENT APPLICATION, CONNECTED TO THE ALUMNI TRACKER, THAT ALLOWS STUDENTS TO REPORT POSTSECONDARY DATA TO THEIR HIGH SCHOOLS. THE TOOL ALSO ALLOWS STUDENTS TO SET GOALS, ASSESS THEIR COLLEGE PROGRESS, AND CONNECT TO PEERS WHO SHARE COMMON ACADEMIC AND CAREER INTERESTS; *AN ANALYTICS ENGINE THAT INTEGRATES DATA FROM MULTIPLE SOURCES AND ALLOWS BEYOND 12 TO CREATE A COMPREHENSIVE STUDENT RISK AND SUCCESS PROFILE. WHEN IT IS FULLY DEVELOPED, THE ENGINE WILL ACT AS AN EARLY DETECTION SYSTEM FOR OUR COLLEGE PARTNERS AND WILL COMBINE PREDICTIVE MODELING WITH DATA MINING TO ASSESS A STUDENT'S RISK OF DROPPING OUT OF COLLEGE. POSTSECONDARY COACHING (THE SERVICE) RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT ACADEMIC, SOCIAL, AND EMOTIONAL ENGAGEMENT ARE CRUCIAL TO SUCCESS IN COLLEGE, AND THAT HANDS-ON SUPPORT IS OFTEN CRITICAL TO ENSURING THAT STUDENTS FROM LOW-INCOME BACKGROUNDS PERSIST PAST THE DIFFICULT FIRST YEARS. TO COMPLEMENT ITS ALUMNI DATA TRACKING EFFORTS AND TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WHO MOST NEED HELP WITH A CRUCIAL SUPPORT SYSTEM, BEYOND 12 HAS CREATED A NETWORK OF POSTSECONDARY COACHES WHO PROVIDE 1:1 COACHING SERVICES TO STUDENTS WHO ATTEND OUR PARTNER SCHOOLS, BEGINNING IN THEIR SENIOR YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL AND CONTINUING THROUGH THEIR SECOND YEAR OF COLLEGE. IN OUR 'NEAR PEER' MODEL, RECENT COLLEGE GRADUATES WHO SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED THEIR OWN COLLEGE DEGREES, THE MAJORITY OF WHOM ARE FROM DISADVANTAGED BACKGROUNDS THEMSELVES, ARE ASSIGNED TO COLLEGE-BOUND HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS. IN ADDITION TO BEING MATCHED BASED ON SHARED ACADEMIC, PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL INTERESTS, COACHES ARE MATCHED WITH STUDENTS WHO WILL ATTEND THEIR ALMA MATER OR A SIMILAR INSTITUTION SO THEY ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE CHARACTERISTICS THAT MAKE THEIR INSTITUTION UNIQUE AND CAN PROVIDE CONTEXT-SPECIFIC GUIDANCE. COACHES ARE CAREFULLY SCREENED, SELECTED AND TRAINED, COMMIT TO WORKING WITH THEIR STUDENTS FOR A MINIMUM OF TWO YEARS, AND HELP STUDENTS NAVIGATE THE DIFFICULT HIGH SCHOOL-TO-COLLEGE TRANSITION. COACHES AND STUDENTS STAY IN REGULAR CONTACT VIA VIDEO SKYPE, TELEPHONE, EMAIL, TEXT MESSAGING AND FACEBOOK. COACHES HELP STUDENTS NAVIGATE THE DIFFICULT HIGH SCHOOL-TO-COLLEGE TRANSITION AND, ONCE STUDENTS ARRIVE ON THEIR COLLEGE CAMPUSES, IMPROVE THEIR EFFECTIVENESS IN AND OUT OF THE CLASSROOM. THE INTENSIVE SUPPORT STUDENTS RECEIVE FROM THEIR COACH DURING THEIR FIRST TWO YEARS OF COLLEGE HELP THEM BUILD THE FOUNDATION FOR THEIR ACADEMIC, FINANCIAL, SOCIAL, AND PERSONAL SUCCESS.
