EXPANDED MISSION STATEMENT OF ORGANIZATION	PROJECT SUCCESS BELIEVES THE KEY TO SUCCESS EXISTS WITHIN EACH STUDENT IF EMPOWERED TO UNLOCK IT. MISSION & VISION: PROJECT SUCCESS MOTIVATES AND INSPIRES YOUNG PEOPLE TO DREAM ABOUT THE FUTURE, HELPS THEM TAKE STEPS TO GET THERE AND GIVES THEM THE TOOLS THEY NEED TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS. OUR VISION IS THAT EVERY CHILD ENTERING MIDDLE SCHOOL WILL GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL WITH A PLAN FOR THEIR FUTURE AND HAVE THE SKILLS AND CONFIDENCE THAT WILL TAKE THEM THROUGH THE REST OF THEIR LIVES. IMPACT: SINCE 1994, PROJECT SUCCESS (PS) HAS EMPOWERED 200,000+ STUDENTS TO DISCOVER THEIR POTENTIAL. SPANNING 6TH TO 12TH GRADE, OUR STAFF GUIDES STUDENTS THROUGH A CURRICULUM OF ACTIVITIES, DESIGNED TO FACILITATE THEIR GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OVER TIME AND PREPARE FOR LIFE AFTER HIGH SCHOOL. CURRICULUM: THROUGH PROJECT SUCCESS, STUDENTS EXPERIENCE A PROVEN CURRICULUM TO HELP THEM PREPARE FOR THEIR FUTURES. CLEAR SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL LEARNING AND FUTURE PLANNING OBJECTIVES ARE BUILT INTO THE CURRICULUM, INCORPORATED INTO ALL PS ACTIVITIES LISTED BELOW. CURRICULUM OBJECTIVES ARE GRADE-SPECIFIC AND CUMULATIVE (6-12 GRADE). IT INCLUDES LESSONS - OR "WORKSHOPS" DELIVERED BY OUR PROFESSIONAL AND DIVERSE STAFF CALLED "FACILITATORS" THROUGH ACTIVITIES THAT OCCUR BOTH IN- AND OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM, AND INCLUDES ACTIVITIES IN FOUR KEY AREAS: IN-CLASS MONTHLY WORKSHOPS - DELIVERED IN ENGLISH, ENGLISH LEARNER OR SPECIAL ED CLASSES, STUDENTS HAVE TIME AND SUPPORT TO PLAN FOR THEIR FUTURES. ARTS - PROFESSIONAL THEATER EXPERIENCES, RESIDENCIES AND STUDENT MUSICALS ARE POWERFUL WAYS TO INSPIRE EXPRESSION, CONNECTION, AND DISCUSSION. EXPEDITIONS -- COLLEGE AND CAREER TOURS, OUTDOOR ADVENTURES, AND GLOBAL EXPLORATION INSPIRE GROWTH, DISCOVERY, AND POSSIBILITIES. INSTITUTE - AFTER-SCHOOL CERTIFICATE COURSES HELP STUDENTS EXPLORE CAREER PATHS AND BUILD PORTABLE SKILLS. INNOVATIVE APPROACH: PROJECT SUCCESS IS UNIQUELY POSITIONED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF YOUNG PEOPLE THROUGH "DIG OR DREAM, IGNITE GROW -- OUR EXCLUSIVE METHODOLOGY FOR PROGRAM DELIVERY. PS HAS DEVELOPED AN INNOVATIVE, CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE EXPERIENCE LEARNING MODEL THAT IS PROVEN TO HELP STUDENTS BUILD THE AGENCY, INTEGRATED IDENTITY AND COMPETENCIES NEEDED TO INCREASE THEIR ACADEMIC ENGAGEMENT AND DEVELOP IMPORTANT SKILLS RESEARCH* HAS SHOWN TO BE ESSENTIAL IN SUCCESSFULLY NAVIGATING LIFE AND CAREER AFTER HIGH SCHOOL. SOME OF THE DEFINING ASPECTS OF DIG INCLUDE: 1. DEVELOPMENTAL RELATIONSHIPS: STUDENTS BUILD TRUSTING RELATIONSHIPS OVER TIME WITH OUR FACILITATORS AND OTHER PROGRAM STAFF WHO ARE HIGHLY TRAINED IN CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE TEACHING, ENSURING THAT WE ACKNOWLEDGE AND VALUE THE CULTURAL BACKGROUNDS, IDENTITIES, AND ANCESTRAL KNOWLEDGE OF EACH STUDENT. STUDENTS AND PS ALUMNI HAVE SHARED THAT PS STAFF SUPPORT HAS HELPED THEM FEEL MORE CONFIDENT, EXPLORE OPPORTUNITIES OUTSIDE OF THEIR "COMFORT ZONE," UNDERSTAND AND PRACTICE HOW TO CREATE AND ACT ON A PLAN TO ACHIEVE GOALS, AND PERSIST IN ACHIEVING THEIR GOALS. 2. LARGE-SCALE PARTNERSHIPS: OUR STRONG SCHOOL AND DISTRICT PARTNERSHIPS ALLOW US TO WORK WITH EACH 6-12 GRADE STUDENT ATTENDING MINNEAPOLIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS (MPS), TOTALING MORE THAN 15,000 STUDENTS. PS IS THE ONLY MPS COMMUNITY PARTNER GIVEN CLASS TIME ON A REGULAR MONTHLY BASIS WITH EACH STUDENT IN EVERY ENGLISH, SPECIAL EDUCATION, AND ENGLISH LEARNER CLASSROOM. FACILITATING THIS LARGE-SCALE OPERATION REQUIRES METICULOUS OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS, A FACET WE HAVE DILIGENTLY DEVELOPED AND HONED. THESE SYSTEMS UNDERPIN OUR ABILITY TO EFFECTIVELY DELIVER PERSONALIZED SUPPORT WHILE MAINTAINING THE SCOPE AND IMPACT THAT COME WITH SERVING A DIVERSE STUDENT POPULATION. 3. RADICAL ACCESS: WHILE OTHER PROGRAMS DO EXIST, BARRIERS TO ACCESS THEM -- TRUST, TIME, TRANSPORTATION, CHILDCARE, MEALS, LANGUAGE, COST, SELECTION CRITERIA, RELEVANCY AND LEARNING DIFFERENCES -- HAVE MADE IT MORE CHALLENGING FOR STUDENTS TO PARTICIPATE. WE BELIEVE DEEPLY IN THE POWER OF DISMANTLING BARRIERS THAT HOLD INEQUITIES IN PLACE -- PERCEIVED AND REAL, SO STUDENTS ARE MORE LIKELY TO SHOW UP AND ABLE TO FULLY PARTICIPATE. *"FOUNDATIONS FOR YOUNG ADULT SUCCESS, A DEVELOPMENTAL FRAMEWORK" BY JENNY NAGAOKA, CAMILLE A. FARRINGTON, STACY B. ERLICH, AND RYAN D. HEATH WITH DAVID W. JOHNSON, SARAH DICKSON, ASHLEY CURETON TURNER, ASHLEY MAYO AND KATHLEEN HAYES AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO CONSORTIUM ON CHICAGO SCHOOL RESEARCH. PROJECT SUCCESS PROGRAMMING POSITIVELY IMPACTS ACADEMIC ENGAGEMENT AND ACHIEVEMENT AND READINESS FOR LIFE, COLLEGE AND CAREER THROUGH OUR WORK IN THREE AREAS: SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL SKILL DEVELOPMENT: PS STUDENTS BUILD AN INTEGRATED IDENTITY WITH SELF-AWARENESS AND REGULATION, KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS, POSITIVE MINDSETS AND CORE VALUES THAT ARE CRITICAL TO THEIR ACADEMIC SUCCESS AND LIFE AND CAREER READINESS. SCHOOL CONNECTEDNESS: STUDENTS ARE MORE LIKELY TO ENGAGE IN HEALTHY BEHAVIORS AND SUCCEED ACADEMICALLY WHEN THEY FEEL CONNECTED TO SCHOOL AND THE ACADEMIC WORK THEY ARE EXPECTED TO DO. PS STUDENTS CONNECT WHAT THEY ARE DOING IN SCHOOL WITH THEIR OWN GOALS AND DREAMS, THEREFORE DEVELOPING A STRONGER COMMITMENT TO LEARNING. DEVELOPMENTAL EXPERIENCE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES: STUDENTS LEARN BETTER AND MORE WHEN THEY HAVE A RICH VARIETY OF OPPORTUNITIES THROUGH WHICH TO GROW AND DEVELOP SKILLS, KNOWLEDGE AND A SENSE OF PURPOSE. PS STUDENTS DEVELOP GREATER COMPETENCY AND THE ABILITY TO MAKE CHOICES ABOUT AND TAKE AN ACTIVE ROLE IN THEIR OWN LIFE PATHS. INDEPENDENT EVALUATIONS BY THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA CENTER FOR APPLIED RESEARCH AND EDUCATIONAL IMPROVEMENT (CAREI) REPORT THAT PROJECT SUCCESS PROGRAMMING HAS A STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER IMPACT FOR STUDENTS OF COLOR AND FOR STUDENTS FROM SCHOOLS LOCATED IN NEIGHBORHOODS WITH HIGH ECONOMIC DISPARITY. DATA ANALYSIS BY MINNEAPOLIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS PROVES THAT THE MORE STUDENTS PARTICIPATE IN PROJECT SUCCESS' INNOVATIVE EXPERIENCE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES (I.E. "DOSAGE"), THE GREATER THE IMPACT IT HAS ON THEIR ACADEMIC ENGAGEMENT AND ACHIEVEMENT. "PROJECT SUCCESS WORKS. WE SEE STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT POSITIVE GAINS IN ON-TIME GRADUATION RATES, ATTENDANCE AND MOST IMPORTANTLY GRADE POINT AVERAGE, WHICH IS THE GREATEST PREDICTOR OF FUTURE SUCCESS."- ERIC MOORE, FORMER SENIOR ACCOUNTABILITY, RESEARCH AND EQUITY OFFICER, MINNEAPOLIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS ACCORDING TO THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION THE NUMBER OF ADOLESCENTS REPORTING POOR MENTAL HEALTH IS INCREASING. THESE FEELINGS WERE FOUND TO BE MORE COMMON AMONG LGBTQ+ STUDENTS, FEMALE STUDENTS AND STUDENTS ACROSS RACIAL AND ETHNIC GROUPS. BLACK STUDENTS WERE MORE LIKELY TO ATTEMPT SUICIDE THAN STUDENTS OF OTHER RACES AND ETHNICITIES. POOR MENTAL HEALTH CAN IMPACT MANY AREAS OF A TEEN'S LIFE. YOUTH WITH POOR MENTAL HEALTH MAY STRUGGLE WITH SCHOOL AND GRADES, DECISION MAKING, AND THEIR HEALTH. PS PROVIDES YOUNG PEOPLE WITH CARING, ADULT SUPPORT AND OPPORTUNITIES - IN AND OUT OF SCHOOL - THAT HELP THEM DEVELOP THE SKILLS, TOOLS AND EXPERIENCE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES THEY NEED TO PREPARE FOR THE CHALLENGES AHEAD, ENVISION THEIR FUTURE WITH HOPE AND EXPANDING POSSIBILITIES, AND THRIVE IN SCHOOL, WORK AND LIFE. RESEARCHERS HAVE FOUND THAT STUDENTS WHO ARE HIGH IN HOPE HAVE GREATER ACADEMIC SUCCESS, STRONGER FRIENDSHIPS, AND DEMONSTRATE MORE CREATIVITY AND BETTER PROBLEM-SOLVING. THEY ALSO HAVE LOWER LEVELS OF DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY AND ARE LESS LIKELY TO DROP OUT OF SCHOOL. PS IS WORKING HARD TO CONTINUE TO INNOVATE AND ADAPT TO MEET STUDENTS' CHANGING NEEDS, PARTICULARLY FOR OUR STUDENTS OF COLOR, LOW-INCOME STUDENTS AND STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES. THROUGH PS, STUDENTS HOPE, THEY DREAM, THEY FOCUS ON THEIR FUTURES, AND THEY BUILD THE RESILIENCE AND PERSEVERANCE TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS. WHAT'S NEW THIS YEAR: PS IS NOW PARTNERING WITH MPS CONTRACT ALTERNATIVE SCHOOLS TO PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO RECOVER CREDIT NEEDED TO GRADUATE. DURING THE 2022-23 SCHOOL YEAR, 40 STUDENTS EARNED CREDIT THROUGH PS PROGRAMS. IN FEBRUARY 2022, PROJECT SUCCESS LAUNCHED A NEW 3-YEAR STRATEGIC PLAN (2022-2025), WHICH IS GUIDING NEW GROWTH AND EXPANSION ACROSS THE ORGANIZATION. KEY PRIORITIES WITHIN THE PLAN INCLUDE: EXPAND OUR PROGRAM REACH, DEVELOP OUR STRONG TEAM AND CULTURE, BUILD A NEW SUSTAINABLE FINANCIAL MODEL, AND CONTINUOUSLY EVALUATE FOR PROGRAM EVOLUTION. ALONGSIDE THIS STRATEGIC PLAN PROCESS, A TEAM OF PS STAFF AND BOARD WORKED TOGETHER IN OUR I.D.E.A. FRAMEWORK (INCLUSION, DIVERSITY, EQUITY, ACCESS), WITH AN EMPHASIS ON RACIAL EQUITY. PS IS SETTING GOAL WITHIN FOUR AREAS - POLICIES, PARTNERS, PROGRAMS AND PEOPLE - WITH A COMMITMENT TO CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT AND EVALUATION OF OUR EFFORTS.
EXPANDED 4A IN SCHEDULE O	IN-CLASS WORKSHOPS: THE FOUNDATION OF OUR CURRICULAR MODEL IS OUR IN-CLASS GOAL-SETTING WORKSHOP. THROUGH WORKSHOPS, PROJECT SUCCESS SERVES THE ENTIRE STUDENT BODY IN EVERY PARTNER SCHOOL, RATHER THAN A SMALL SLICE OF THE POPULATION. FACILITATORS LEAD MONTHLY GOAL-SETTING WORKSHOPS IN EVERY ENGLISH/LANGUAGE ARTS, SPECIAL EDUCATION (SPED) AND ENGLISH LEARNER (EL) CLASSROOM FOR EACH STUDENT (THERE ARE NO SELECTION CRITERIA). THEY PROVIDE TIME AND SPACE FOR FACILITATED DISCUSSION AND EXPLORATION TO HELP STUDENTS DISCOVER WHO THEY ARE AND WHAT THEY WANT OUT OF LIFE SO THEY CAN BUILD THE CONNECTION BETWEEN ACADEMIC PERSISTENCE NOW AND SUCCESS IN MEETING THEIR GOALS IN THE FUTURE. EACH PS FACILITATOR REGULARLY TRAINS IN CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE TEACHING, ENSURING THAT WE ACKNOWLEDGE AND VALUE THE CULTURAL BACKGROUNDS, IDENTITIES, AND ANCESTRAL KNOWLEDGE THAT EACH STUDENT AND THEIR FAMILY BRINGS TO OUR COMMUNITY. THROUGH PS, STUDENT VOICE AND POWER ARE ELEVATED, AND OUR TEACHING STRATEGIES ARE PROVEN TO TEACHERS, IMPROVING CLASSROOM CLIMATE. STUDENTS DEEPEN THEIR RELATIONSHIPS AND FEEL SEEN, VALUED, AND HEARD. THROUGH THE TRUST WE BUILD WITH STUDENTS, WE HEAR FROM THEM EVERY DAY ABOUT THEIR NEEDS, GOALS, AND DREAMS. WE ARE THE ONLY PROGRAM THAT COMES TO EVERY ENGLISH, SPED AND EL CLASSROOM, EVERY MONTH FOR EACH 6-12 GRADE STUDENT IN MPS. THROUGHOUT ALL GRADES, OUR CLASSROOM WORKSHOPS ARE REGULARLY ADAPTED TO MEET THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF THE CLASSROOM, A GROUP OF STUDENTS, AND INDIVIDUAL AND CULTURAL LEARNING STYLES, AND ARE CONTINUOUSLY EVALUATED FOR QUALITY AND EFFECTIVENESS. DURING THE 2022-23 SCHOOL YEAR, PS DELIVERED MONTHLY WORKSHOPS TO STUDENTS IN MPS IN-PERSON AND VIRTUAL CLASSROOMS - MORE THAN 4,000 WORKSHOPS DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR. TEACHERS SHARED THAT PS WORKSHOPS CLASSROOMS WERE A BOOST IN STUDENT ENGAGEMENT AND ALLOWED TEACHERS TO SEE STUDENTS IN NEWS WAYS.
EXPANDED 4B IN SCHEDULE O	ARTS - PROFESSIONAL THEATER EXPERIENCES FOR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES: RESEARCH HAS SHOWN IMPRESSIVE BENEFITS OF ARTS EDUCATION ON ENTIRE SCHOOL CULTURE - ESPECIALLY STUDENT MOTIVATION, ATTITUDES, AND ATTENDANCE. NUMEROUS REPORTS DISCUSS THE WAYS THAT INCREASED ACCESS AND INVOLVEMENT IN THE ARTS ENCOURAGE STUDENTS TO STAY IN SCHOOL, AND SUCCEED IN SCHOOL, WORK AND LIFE. UNFORTUNATELY, IN MINNESOTA, THERE IS A "DONUT EFFECT" TO THE ACCESS OF ARTS EDUCATION OFFERINGS WHERE INNER CITY SCHOOLS AND RURAL SCHOOLS REPORT LESS ACCESS, AND SCHOOLS IN THE SUBURBAN RING TEND TO REPORT OFFERING BETTER ACCESS. THIS "DONUT" DISPROPORTIONATELY AFFECTS STUDENTS AND FAMILIES OF COLOR, INDIGENOUS STUDENTS AND FAMILIES, OR LOW-INCOME FAMILIES. PROJECT SUCCESS THOUGHTFULLY SELECTS PRODUCTIONS WITH OUR 50+ THEATER PARTNERS, MATCHING SHOW CONTENT TO THE CURRICULUM IN OUR WORKSHOPS. WE EMPHASIZE THE CULTURAL RELEVANCE OF THE PRODUCTION TO ENSURE THAT STUDENTS SEE THEMSELVES REFLECTED ON STAGE. PS PROGRAM STAFF COORDINATE PRODUCTION SELECTION, OBTAINING TICKETS AT NO COST THROUGH THEATER PARTNERS, SENDING INVITATIONS TO EACH STUDENT (OFFERED IN 4 LANGUAGES), PROVIDING ONLINE GUIDES, TAKING RESERVATIONS, CONTACTING FAMILIES IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGES, OFFERING TRANSPORTATION AND CHILD-CARE AND MORE. ALL STUDENTS PS SERVES AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE INVITED TO ATTEND AT LEAST 80 PROFESSIONAL ARTS EXPERIENCES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. OUR THEATER EXPERIENCES AND THEATER FIELD TRIPS (DURING THE SCHOOL DAY) ARE MANAGED BY OUR PROGRAM MANAGER FOR THEATER EXPERIENCES, WHO MANAGES EACH PROFESSIONAL THEATER PARTNER RELATIONSHIP, COORDINATES OFFERINGS WITH PARTNER TEACHERS, AND WORKS WITH A TEAM TO FACILITATE THE STUDENT/FAMILY EXPERIENCE. THE TEAM INCLUDES PROGRAM COORDINATORS, AND A THEATER CURRICULUM ASSOCIATE WHO RESEARCHES EACH PRODUCTION, BUILDS CURRICULUM AND ONLINE GUIDES, AND WORKS WITH WORKSHOP AND OTHER PROGRAM STAFF TO INVITE AND PREPARE STUDENTS FOR EACH EXPERIENCE. PROJECT SUCCESS' CLASSROOM WORKSHOP THEMES ARE TIED INTO THE PLAYS TO WHICH THE STUDENTS ARE INVITED. THESE DISCUSSIONS AND EVENTS ENABLE PROJECT SUCCESS STAFF TO CONTINUE TO ADJUST THE THEATER EXPERIENCES AND CLASSROOM WORKSHOPS TO THE NEEDS AND INTERESTS OF THE PARTICIPANTS AND ALLOW OUR TEACHER PARTNERS TO CAPITALIZE ON ENGAGING EXPERIENCES THAT HELP STUDENTS CONNECT WITH THEIR ACADEMIC WORK. THROUGH PROJECT SUCCESS, STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES - MANY OF WHOM WOULD NOT OTHERWISE HAVE THE MEANS TO EXPERIENCE THE TWIN CITIES' VIBRANT ARTS COMMUNITY - ATTEND DIVERSE THEATER PERFORMANCES TOGETHER, ENRICHING THEIR SHARED FAMILY AND SCHOOL COMMUNITY EXPERIENCES AND INCREASING OPPORTUNITIES FOR BONDING INTERACTIONS, WHICH CAN LEAD TO MORE POSITIVE FAMILY AND SCHOOL RELATIONSHIPS AND GREATER HOME/PEER SUPPORT FOR YOUTH - SHOWN TO HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT. DURING THE 2022-23 SCHOOL YEAR, PROJECT SUCCESS PROVIDED THE OPPORTUNITY FOR MORE THAN 7,000 STUDENTS AND FAMILY MEMBERS TO ATTEND LIVE PERFORMANCES THROUGH PS HANDPICKED THEATER OPPORTUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. MORE THAN 4,000 STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN FIELD TRIPS TO PROFESSIONAL THEATER PERFORMANCES DURING THE SCHOOL DAY AND 400 STUDENTS ENGAGED IN OUR THEATER RESIDENCY PROGRAM - WHERE WE FACILITATE CONNECTION AND CURRICULUM BETWEEN OUR PARTNER THEATERS WITH OUR STUDENTS AND TEACHERS IN MEANINGFUL WAYS. SCHOOL MUSICALS: MIDDLE SCHOOL IS A CRITICAL TIME FOR STUDENTS TO BUILD THEIR CONFIDENCE AND BELIEF IN THEIR ABILITY TO SUCCEED, AND BOLSTER THEIR SENSE OF BELONGING. SCHOOLS ARE EXPERIENCING DWINDLING RESOURCES ALLOCATED FOR PROVIDING QUALITY ARTS PROGRAMMING FOR STUDENTS, WHICH HAS SHOWN TO IMPROVE STUDENT CONFIDENCE AND ACHIEVEMENT. PROJECT SUCCESS OFFERS STUDENTS OPPORTUNITIES TO PARTICIPATE IN AN ANNUAL SCHOOL MUSICAL, WHICH HELPS STUDENTS BUILD THE PERSEVERANCE, CONFIDENCE AND SKILLS THAT ARE NEEDED TO PUT ON A HIGH-QUALITY PRODUCTION, EXPERIENCE SUCCESS, AND DEVELOP PEER AND COMMUNITY SUPPORT. PROJECT SUCCESS COORDINATES THE ENTIRE PRODUCTION. STUDENTS WORK IN FRONT OF AND BEHIND THE SCENES, INTERACTING DIRECTLY WITH PROFESSIONAL ARTISTS AND QUALITY EQUIPMENT. THEY REHEARSE EVERY DAY AFTER SCHOOL FOR EIGHT WEEKS, CULMINATING IN SCHOOL AND PUBLIC PERFORMANCES FOR HUNDREDS OF AUDIENCE MEMBERS. PROJECT SUCCESS STAFF INCORPORATE OUR CURRICULUM GOALS INTO EACH REHEARSAL TO HELP STUDENTS UNDERSTAND THE RELEVANCE OF THE ACTIVITIES TO THEIR DAILY LIVES. THE SCHOOLS ENTHUSIASTICALLY PROVIDE THE SPACE FOR REHEARSAL AND PERFORMANCE, AND PROJECT SUCCESS COVERS ALL OTHER EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH THE PRODUCTION. PUTTING ON A VERY PROFESSIONAL AND SUCCESSFUL THEATER PERFORMANCE CONTRIBUTES TO YOUNG PEOPLE'S SKILLS AND SELF-ESTEEM, AND GIVES THEM OPPORTUNITIES FOR REAL-WORLD APPLICATION OF SKILLS LEARNED IN THE CLASSROOM. PROJECT SUCCESS PRODUCED TWO MIDDLE SCHOOL MUSICALS WITH 159 STUDENTS FROM OCTOBER 2022 THROUGH MARCH 2023, AT SANFORD AND NORTHEAST MIDDLE SCHOOLS. ANALYSIS OF PROJECT SUCCESS PARTICIPATION DATA BY THE MINNEAPOLIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS DEPARTMENT OF RESEARCH, EVALUATION AND ASSESSMENT SHOWS THAT: MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS WHO PARTICIPATE IN A PROJECT SUCCESS-PRODUCED MUSICAL (8 WEEKS OF DAILY REHEARSALS AFTER SCHOOL, CULMINATING IN PERFORMANCES FOR THEIR PEERS AND THE COMMUNITY) SHOW A 6% AVERAGE INCREASE IN GPA (20% AFTER 3 YEARS). AFRICAN AMERICAN AND LATINO MALE STUDENTS THAT DO BOTH THE MUSICAL AND 4 COLLEGE VISITS HAVE UP TO A 26% INCREASE IN GPA OVER FOUR YEARS GREATER THAN THOSE WHO DID NOT PARTICIPATE.
EXPANDED 4C IN SCHEDULE O	EXPEDITIONS - COLLEGE AND CAREER TOURS: USING OUR PROVEN CURRICULUM, WE DESIGN OUR COLLEGE TOURS TO EMPOWER STUDENTS THINK CRITICALLY ABOUT THEIR POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION OPTIONS, OPEN NEW DOORS FOR THEIR FUTURE, AND CREATE ACTIONABLE PLANS TO ACHIEVE THEIR DREAMS. OUR COLLEGE AND CAREER TOURS IGNITE NEW CAREER POSSIBILITIES FOR STUDENTS AS THEY EXPLORE THEIR FUTURE OPTIONS AND CONNECT WITH REAL LIFE PROFESSIONALS TO DEEPEN THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF VARIOUS CAREER FIELDS AND THE EDUCATION AND TRAINING NEEDED TO PURSUE THEM. PS ORGANIZES AND HOSTS STATE AND NATIONAL TOURS TO AN AVERAGE OF 20 COLLEGES CAMPUSES ANNUALLY, INCLUDING A WIDE DIVERSITY OF COLLEGES (4 YEAR, 2 YEAR, HBCU, TRIBAL, TRADE- SPECIFIC), OUR CURRICULUM INCLUDES AN INTENTIONAL LOOK AT NOT JUST THE POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION INSTITUTION, BUT ALSO ALLOW TIME AND SPACE FOR STUDENTS TO THINK CRITICALLY ABOUT WHAT THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD OFFERS ITS COMMUNITY - TO SEE BEYOND THE ACADEMICS. WE OFFER IN-STATE TOURS AT NO CHARGE AND SCHOLARSHIPS ARE OFFERED TO STUDENTS WHO DO NOT HAVE THE MEANS TO PAY FOR THE COST OF OUT-OF-STATE TOURS. OFFERED ON NON-SCHOOL DAYS, TRANSPORTATION, FOOD, AND MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED. PS ALSO OFFERS COLLEGE TOURS AS SCHOOL-DAY FIELD TRIPS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH MPS HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS. PROJECT SUCCESS COLLEGE AND CAREER TOURS VISITED BOTH COLLEGES AND A VARIETY OF WORKPLACES TO EXPLORE CAREERS IN HEALTHCARE, ENTREPRENEURSHIP, COSMETOLOGY, PERFORMING ARTS AND CULINARY ARTS. HANDS-ON, BEHIND-THE-SCENES TOURS OF PROFESSIONAL WORKPLACES ALLOWS STUDENTS TO IMAGINE THEMSELVES IN THAT SPACE. THIS PROGRAMMING CONNECTS OUR PROGRAMS THROUGH THE PROJECT SUCCESS INSTITUTE (SEE LINE 4D) AND OUR COLLEGE TOURS TO DEEPEN THE IMPACT OF OUR DIVERSE PROGRAMS FOR STUDENTS. DURING THE 2022-23 SCHOOL YEAR, MORE THAN 400 STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN MORE THAN 16 PS IN-PERSON COLLEGE AND CAREER TOURS TO A VARIETY OF CAMPUSES. IN ADDITION TO THE IN-PERSON TOURS, PS PROVIDED A PRE-RECORDED ADMISSIONS AND WORKPLACE CHATS LIBRARY ON OUR WEBSITE, AVAILABLE AT ANY TIME AS WELL AS OUR COLLEGE CONVERSATIONS PODCAST, WHICH INCLUDES MORE THAN 32 INTERVIEWS WITH MPS STUDENTS AND ALUMNI, AND EXPERTS ON COLLEGE-RELATED TOPICS DESIGNED TO INFORM STUDENTS' DECISION-MAKING PROCESS. PS ALSO HOSTED IN-PERSON AND VIRTUAL WORKSHOPS OVER SPRING BREAK, COVERING TOPICS ON HOW TO FINANCE POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION, THRIVE ACADEMICALLY, AND CONNECT WITH OTHERS TO BUILD COMMUNITY. ANALYSIS OF PROJECT SUCCESS PARTICIPATION DATA BY THE MINNEAPOLIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS DEPARTMENT OF RESEARCH, EVALUATION AND ASSESSMENT SHOWS THAT: 67% OF ALL STUDENTS WHO ATTEND PROJECT SUCCESS COLLEGE TOURS ARE MORE LIKELY TO GRADUATE ON TIME THAN STUDENTS WHO DO NOT PARTICIPATE. HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WHO PARTICIPATE IN AT LEAST ONE PROJECT SUCCESS COLLEGE TOUR SHOW AN INCREASE OF 2% IN GRADUATION RATES ACROSS ALL POPULATIONS. AFRICAN-AMERICAN AND LATINO STUDENTS WHO PARTICIPATE IN A COLLEGE TOUR SHOW A 5% AVERAGE INCREASE IN GRADE POINT AVERAGE (GPA), OR 21% AFTER 4 YEARS, GREATER THAN THOSE THAT DID NOT PARTICIPATE. EXPEDITIONS - OUTDOOR AND WILDERNESS ADVENTURES: EACH SCHOOL YEAR, PROJECT SUCCESS OFFERS OUTDOOR AND STEM EXPERIENCE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES AIMED TO INTRODUCE OUR STUDENTS TO THE NATURE IN THEIR OWN "BACKYARDS", BUILD SUPPORTIVE PEER AND ADULT RELATIONSHIPS AND SENSE OF BELONGING, AND SEE THEMSELVES IN STEM-RELATED CAREER FIELDS. FOR EXAMPLE, RIVER AND OUTDOOR ADVENTURE FIELD TRIP DAYS ARE DESIGNED TO HELP SIXTH GRADE STUDENTS TRANSITION SUCCESSFULLY INTO MIDDLE SCHOOL. FAMILY OUTDOOR ADVENTURE DAYS ARE DESIGNED TO INSPIRE STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES TO GET TO KNOW THE VAST URBAN PARK SYSTEM IN THE TWIN CITIES AND LEARN MORE WAYS TO INTERACT WITH NATURE. FINALLY, SCIENCE FUSION IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SCIENCE MUSEUM OF MINNESOTA INVITES STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE DIVERSE PEOPLE WORKING IN THE SCIENCES. EACH SUMMER, PROJECT SUCCESS KEEPS INSPIRING STUDENTS BY OFFERING A VERY SPECIAL ANNUAL CANOE TRIP TO THE BOUNDARY WATERS CANOE AREA WILDERNESS (BWCA) IN NORTHERN MINNESOTA. SINCE 1999, PROJECT SUCCESS HAS TAKEN MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS ON THIS SUMMER CANOE ADVENTURE FOR SEVEN FULL DAYS. DURING THE WEEK, CAMPERS LEARN TO WORK TOGETHER TO PADDLE AND PORTAGE CANOES, SET UP AND BREAK DOWN CAMP, COOK THEIR OWN FOOD, CLEAN UP WITHOUT MAKING AN IMPACT ON THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT, AND SPEND EVERY EVENING REFLECTING AS A GROUP ON THE ACTIVITIES OF THE DAY AND THE PLAN FOR THE NEXT DAY. THIS ACTIVITY TAKES EVERYTHING WE TEACH DURING OUR IN-CLASS PROJECT SUCCESS WORKSHOPS AND HELPS STUDENTS APPLY THAT KNOWLEDGE IN A REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCE. THEY DEVELOP POSITIVE BEHAVIORS AND SKILLS, SUCH AS GOAL-SETTING, LEADERSHIP, TEAMWORK, AND COMMUNICATION SKILLS BUILDING GRIT, CONFIDENCE AND RESPECT FOR THE AWESOME BEAUTY OF THE WILDERNESS AND A SIMPLE WAY OF LIFE. PS HAS ALSO ADDED A TRIP TO THE APOSTLE ISLANDS, SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR STUDENTS WHO NEED MORE SUPPORT TO ENJOY A MULTI-DAY OUTDOOR EXPERIENCE. DURING THE 2022-23 SCHOOL YEAR, PROJECT SUCCESS PROVIDED AN UNPRECEDENTED NUMBER OF OUTDOOR EXPERIENCES FOR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES, INCLUDING BWCA TRIPS FOR 220 STUDENTS, APOSTLE ISLANDS ADVENTURE FOR 12 STUDENTS, OUTDOOR ADVENTURE DAYS - BOTH DURING AND OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL TIME - FOR 800 STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES, AND ACCESS TO THE SCIENCE CAREER DAYS AT THE MN SCIENCE MUSEUM FOR 150 STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES. EXPEDITIONS - GLOBAL EXPERIENCES: EDUCATIONAL TRAVEL IS A PROVEN WAY TO HAVE A LASTING IMPACT ON STUDENTS AND THEIR SUCCESS. YOUNG PEOPLE BETWEEN THE AGES OF 12 AND 18 WHO TRAVEL OUTSIDE OF THE REGION WHERE THEY LIVE DO BETTER IN SCHOOL, AND AS ADULTS, HAVE HIGHER EARNING POTENTIAL AND ANNUAL INCOME THAN NON-TRAVELERS. MULTICULTURAL LEARNING IS ALSO PROVEN TO FACILITATE CREATIVITY THROUGH COMPLEX PROBLEM SOLVING AND INCREASED AWARENESS - IT HELPS TO OPEN STUDENTS' MINDS TO OTHER IDEAS AND WAYS OF THINKING. PS HAS BEEN BRINGING STUDENTS ON GLOBAL EXPERIENCES SINCE 2016. BY VISITING GLOBAL CITIES, STUDENTS GAIN A GREATER UNDERSTANDING OF THEMSELVES AS GLOBAL CITIZENS AND LEARN ABOUT OTHER CULTURES AND HISTORIES. OVER THE LAST 6 YEARS, PS HAS BROUGHT MORE THAN 400 STUDENTS TO MEXICO CITY, LONDON, PARIS, WASHINGTON DC, BOSTON, WHERE STUDENTS DISCOVERED CULTURE, ART, LANGUAGE AND GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP AND LEADERSHIP. STUDENTS VISIT CULTURAL INSTITUTIONS SUCH AS THE SMITHSONIAN NATIONAL MUSEUM OF AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY AND CULTURE (NMAAHC), AND COLLEGE CAMPUSES, INCLUDING HOWARD, HARVARD AND BOSTON UNIVERSITY AND WILL MEET WITH GLOBAL EDUCATION FACULTY AND STUDENTS. ULTIMATELY, PROJECT SUCCESS SEEKS TO CREATE MORE GLOBAL EDUCATION EXPERIENCES THAT BROADEN STUDENTS' PERSPECTIVES, OPEN NEW DOORS OF POSSIBILITY FOR THEM AND PREPARE THEM TO BE CITIZENS OF THE WORLD. THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC HAD A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON OUR GLOBAL EXPERIENCES PROGRAM, REQUIRING PROJECT SUCCESS TO CANCEL THREE ADDITIONAL GLOBAL LEADERSHIP TOURS FOR 80 MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO MEXICO AND WASHINGTON D.C. IN 2020. IN RESPONSE, STAFF CREATED VIRTUAL ALTERNATIVES THAT INCLUDED SAFARI TRIPS IN KENYA, COOKING CLASSES IN COLUMBIA, A TOUR OF ANTARCTICA, AND A PEN PAL PROGRAM CONNECTING MPS STUDENTS WITH STUDENTS ALL OVER THE WORLD. DURING THE 2022-23 SCHOOL YEAR, PS PROVIDED ONE IN-PERSON GLOBAL EXPERIENCE OPPORTUNITIES IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS, EXPLORING IDENTITY, HISTORY AND MOTIVATION FOR STUDENTS FROM EACH MPS HIGH SCHOOL ON A TRIP TO VISIT THE NMAAC AND HOWARD UNIVERSITY. PS ALSO PROVIDED PEN PAL CONNECTIONS FOR 50 MPS STUDENTS WITH STUDENTS IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC.
EXPANDED 4D IN SCHEDULE O	PROJECT SUCCESS INSTITUTE: THE INSTITUTE WAS BUILT ON THE REALITY THAT FOR TODAY'S STUDENTS TO STAY IN SCHOOL AND PREPARE FOR POST-SECONDARY SUCCESS, MORE RESOURCES AND SUPPORT IS NEEDED-ESPECIALLY LOW-INCOME STUDENTS AND STUDENTS OF COLOR WHICH MAKE UP 65% OF THE MINNEAPOLIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS STUDENT POPULATION. STUDENTS NEED TO EXPLORE CAREER OPPORTUNITIES, TO DEVELOP HARD COMPETENCIES, LIFE AND SOFT SKILLS, VISIT COLLEGES AND WORKPLACES FIRST-HAND TO FOR RESEARCH AND SELECTION, AND INTEGRATE ALL THESE ELEMENTS INTO A PRACTICAL PLAN AS THEY MAKE POST-SECONDARY PLANS. STUDENTS ARE FACING FEWER CAREER-PLANNING AND INDEPENDENT LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES DUE TO DECLINING FUNDING AND ACCESS TO GUIDANCE COUNSELORS AND COURSES LIKE FINANCIAL LITERACY - IN FACT, MINNESOTA'S STUDENT-TO-COUNSELOR RATION RANKS 48TH IN THE NATION. IN SEPTEMBER 2018 - AFTER A YEAR OF PILOT TESTING - PROJECT SUCCESS LAUNCHED NEW PROGRAMS AT THE PROJECT SUCCESS INSTITUTE, OFFERING MINNEAPOLIS HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WORKSHOPS AND 10-WEEK COURSES TO EARN CERTIFICATES IN VARIOUS FOCUS AREAS. STUDENTS SPEND 2 HOURS/WEEK OVER A 10-WEEK COURSE LEARNING PORTABLE SKILLS, KNOWLEDGE AND CONFIDENCE FOR LIFE AND VARIOUS CAREERS AFTER HIGH SCHOOL. PS OFFERS THREE TRIMESTERS OF FREE COURSES FOR UP TO 300 STUDENTS PER YEAR. CURRENT COURSE OFFERINGS INCLUDE CODING, COOKING OR BAKING, MONEY MANAGEMENT AND BIKE TECH BY PROJECT SUCCESS, AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP BY GIRLS WITH IMPACT, OFFERED VIRTUALLY AND HOSTED BY PS. ALL PS COURSES OCCUR AT THE INSTITUTE LOCATED AT PS HEADQUARTERS. COURSES ARE LED BY PROFESSIONAL INSTRUCTORS, WITH SUPPORT FROM VOLUNTEER MENTORS. FREE SHUTTLE TRANSPORTATION IS PROVIDED FOR ALL STUDENTS, AND ADDITIONAL 1:1 SUPPORT IS AVAILABLE FOR ANY STUDENT. STUDENTS COMPLETE THE PROGRAM WITH A BROADER SENSE OF THE OCCUPATIONS AND LIFESTYLES AVAILABLE TO THEM, AND SKILLS NEEDED TO SUCCEED IN POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION AND THE WORKPLACE. SEVERAL ASPECTS OF THE INSTITUTE DISTINGUISH IT FROM OTHER PROGRAMS. FIRST, PROGRAMMING HAPPENS OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL TIME WHEN SCHOOL-BASED COLLEGE AND CAREER CENTERS ARE CLOSED. SECOND, BECAUSE PROJECT SUCCESS IS SO STRONGLY EMBEDDED IN THE SCHOOLS, WE ARE AWARE OF NEEDS AND POSSIBILITIES THAT CAN HAVE AN IMMEDIATE IMPACT. AND THIRD, WHILE OTHER PROGRAMS ARE AVAILABLE IN OUR COMMUNITY, STUDENTS HAVE SHARED THAT BARRIERS TO ACCESS THE PROGRAMS - INCLUDING TIME, TRANSPORTATION, COST AND RELEVANCY - HAVE MADE IT MORE CHALLENGING FOR THEM TO PARTICIPATE. BECAUSE OF OUR LONG-TERM, TRUSTING RELATIONSHIP WITH STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES, OUR PROVEN METHODOLOGY IN EXPERIENCE LEARNING, AND OUR EXPERTISE IN PROVIDING PROGRAMS AT A LARGE SCALE SUCCESSFULLY ADDRESSING BOTH ACCESS AND EQUITY, OUR STUDENTS ARE MORE LIKELY TO PARTICIPATE. THEY HAVE TOLD US AS MUCH. DURING THE 2022-23 SCHOOL YEAR, 178 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS DEVELOPED SKILLS, KNOWLEDGE, AND CAREER- AND LIFE-READINESS THROUGH EARNING CERTIFICATES IN CODING, COOKING, MONEY MANAGEMENT, ENTREPRENEURSHIP, AND BIKE TECH. STUDENTS FROM EVERY MPS HIGH SCHOOL PARTICIPATED. FOR THE FIRST TIME, SOME COOKING CLASSES WERE TAUGHT BY LOCAL AND NATIONAL CELEBRITY CHEFS AND PS PARTNERED WITH GIRLS WITH IMPACT TO OFFER THEIR HARVARD-DESIGNED ONLINE CLASS WHICH ENCOURAGED 28 STUDENTS TO LEARN HOW TO TURN THEIR PASSION INTO ENTREPRENEURSHIP, CULMINATING IN A MINI-MBA.
