AUSL OVERVIEW**
Founded in 2001, Academy for Urban School Leadership is a non-profit teacher training and school management organization whose mission is to improve student achievement in Chicago’s high-poverty, chronically failing schools through its disciplined transformation process, built on a foundation of specially trained teachers. In close partnership with Chicago Public Schools (CPS), AUSL primarily operates in low-income neighborhoods on the south and west sides of the city. AUSL began as a teacher training program focused on practice-based learning, similar to a medical residency, where teacher residents spend a full year learning from a mentor teacher in one of AUSL’s training academies. * Mobility Rate is the rate of students transferring into or out of a school. Calculation can be found on page 15. ** Note: The number of schools, teachers and students on this page represent AUSL’s 2012-2013 schools. The data throughout the document represents the 19 schools managed by AUSL in 2011-2012.

INDEPENDENT SUPPORT
The Consortium on Chicago School Research released a summary from their independent research evaluating the effect of turnarounds. The 2012 study concluded that four years after intervention, reformed elementary schools closed the gap to the system average by almost half in reading and two-thirds in mathematics. AUSL schools represent 33% of the sample use in the study. 2011/12 AUSL Progress Report 3
Our proven whole-school turnaround model delivers change by focusing on three strategies for success:
AUSLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S FIVE STEPS STEP 1: School turnaround begins over summer break, including facilities renovation and increased community outreach.
AUSL provides chronically failing schools with the two things they need the most: a fresh start and the right resources to create sustainable improvement. Inside the school, we place a strong leadership team, a speciallytrained faculty, a challenging curriculum, and a nurturing climate conducive for learning. We work closely with parents and community partners to provide students with wrap-around services and support.

Our three strategies for success:
Strategy 1: Create a Fresh Start Research on school reform demonstrates marginal changes at failing schools yield only marginal results. To alter quickly the trajectory of a school which has been failing for years, the school needs a new start, a reboot. To accomplish a wholesale change, AUSL focuses on the following: CLIMATE AND CULTURE
• Consistent school routines for students, including entry into building,
dress code/uniforms, student understanding and compliance with cafeteria noise level, and hallway transitions. BUILDING RENEWAL
•M ajor renovations often made to existing facility in line with CPS capital
improvement plans. •O ur classroom climate and appearance affects how students learn and
how teachers teach. For instance, seats are situated for purposeful learning, “word walls” are easy to read and visible, and daily agendas are posted and follow a consistent configuration across all classrooms. NEW ADULTS IN THE BUILDING
•M ost teachers are trained in the AUSL way via the Chicago Teacher
Residency, reinforcing an aligned school culture and environment. •A ll adults in the building share accountability and are equally committed
to turning the school around.

Our three strategies for success:
Strategy 2: Build Strong Human Capital AUSL builds strong human capital by training new teachers through the Chicago Teacher Residency and providing strong and consistent teacher development for all of the teachers across our schools. CHICAGO TEACHER RESIDENCY
The AUSL Chicago Teacher Residency Program is a year-long program that combines a Master’s Degree and significant, real classroom experience under the guidance of a mentor teacher. Graduates of the program begin their teaching career in an AUSL turnaround school with more than twice the number of hours spent in the classroom than a traditionally trained teacher. They receive significant intensive, individualized practice and coaching. Residents spend four days each week during the school year in an AUSL school in their mentor teachers’ classrooms, observing and practicing the skills and strategies that will make them effective teachers in a turnaround school. The Chicago Teacher Residency model also engages residents in rigorous, graduate-level coursework to earn a Master’s degree with AUSL’s university partner, National Louis University. NETWORK-WIDE TEACHER DEVELOPMENT
AUSL’s Teacher Development Process (TDP) is designed to improve continuously student achievement, teacher effectiveness, and teacher job satisfaction in order to retain the highest quality teachers. The TDP achieves these objectives through four key elements: 1) Professional development based on AUSL’s Signature Strategies, 2) Teacher feedback and evaluation using the Danielson Framework for Teaching, 3) Consistent use of student data to inform teacher practice and assessment, and 4) Active coaching for AUSL teachers.

Our three strategies for success:
Strategy 3: Execute Data-Driven Instruction AUSL has developed a performance management system to track, analyze, and refine our work from the individual student to the school level. Data-driven instruction allows our teachers to develop individual learning plans for each of their students. This approach ensures that every student is learning the critical thinking skills needed for college and/or career. We continuously evaluate and improve our approaches based on clear metrics, transparency, and a relentless focus on student academic achievement and positive culture and climate. AUSL’s results prove that we create better schools by accelerating student academic achievement and creating safer school environments. The following pages provide a deep look into our elementary and high schools. ACADEMIC HIGHLIGHTS
* AUSL turnaround elementary schools outpaced district growth by more than double for the sixth consecutive year in 2012. Additionally, in most cases, AUSL’s turnaround elementary schools post more than double the ISAT gains of their non-AUSL nearby neighborhood schools. * 80% of AUSL turnaround elementary schools have moved from a Level 3 to a Level 2 school. These Levels are based on the school’s score on the CPS Performance Policy. Level 3 is the lowest rating and Level 2 is the middle rating. * AUSL’s Chicago Academy High School, a teacher training site, ranks in the top 15 high schools in the district. CLIMATE AND CULTURE HIGHLIGHTS
* 100% of our schools increased their student attendance rates since AUSL’s management. * According to the 2012 AUSL Family Satisfaction Survey, on average 90% of families would strongly recommend AUSL turnaround elementary schools to others and 87% of families feel that improvements in their AUSL turnaround elementary school made their community a better place.

AUSL Scorecards
About the Elementary School Scorecards ISAT Composite: Growth vs. Similar Neighborhood Schools since AUSL Management shows the percentage point change from the year prior to AUSLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s management through 2012. Comparable neighborhood schools were selected based on the following criteria: Distance; Enrollment; Mobility; %African American; %Hispanic; %ELL; %SPED; %FRL; Grade 3 ISAT.
This graph shows the percent of students meeting or exceeding state standards: ISAT Composite at our AUSL school compared to the Chicago Public School District and the Comparable Schools shown in the ISAT graph to the left.
The Illinois Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) is an annual assessment administered every spring. It is composed of three tests (Reading, Mathematics, and Science) which measure individual student achievement relative to the Illinois Learning Standards. Students in grades 3 through 8 take the reading and mathematics subtests. The science subtest is only administered to students in grades 4 and 7. The Composite Score which is used here is reported as a percent of all valid subtests (Reading, Mathematics and Science) where students received a meet or exceed level designation.(1)
NWEA (Northwest Evaluation Association) is a non-profit that created MAP assessments, a nationally normed formative testing system that responds dynamically to the child.(2)
MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) assessments are adaptive achievement tests that are taken on a computer.(3)
Average NWEA RIT Score by Grade demonstrates how each grade, on average, performed in Reading and Math versus the National Average by grade. The RIT Scale is a curriculum scale that uses individual item difficulty values to estimate student achievement.(4) For example Morton 5th graders, on average, surpass the national average RIT score in both reading and math.
14 2011/12 AUSL Progress Report
Turnarounds Schools: Turning around a school is one approach that Chicago Public Schools (CPS) uses to improve neighborhood schools that have been failing for many years. AUSL takes over the management of a turnaround school at the request of CPS. The school remains a public neighborhood school.
Training Academies: Training Academies are neighborhood schools in which residents from the Chicago Teacher Residency are trained. These schools are not turnarounds but were opened with the purpose of developing highly effective teachers for the challenging urban environment.
The Illinois State Board of Education defines mobility as: Represents the year AUSL began managing the school either as a turnaround or a training academy.
The count of students who transfer-in and transfer-out of the school beginning with the first school day in October and continuing through the last day of the regular school year. A transfer-in is each instance in which a student is added to the enrollment roster of the school. A transfer-out is each instance in which a student is removed from the enrollment roster of the school for whatever reason. The formula used to calculate the mobility is as follows: (Transfers In + Transfers Out)/Average Daily Enrollment)*100 = Mobility Rate(5)
Attendance represents the attendance rate for the 2011-2012 school year.
Free and Reduced Lunch represents the percent of students that qualify for free or reduced-price meals.
Student enrollment on the 20th day of the 2012-2013 school year based on CPS data.
Education Support Personnel are the adults in the building beyond teachers that support the educational program.

About the High School Scorecards
ACT Test: Growth vs. Similar Neighborhood Schools since AUSL Management shows the percentage point change from the year prior to AUSLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s management to 2012. Comparable neighborhood schools were selected based on the following criteria: Distance; Enrollment; Mobility; %African American; %Hispanic; %ELL; %SPED; %FRL; Freshman EXPLORE.
The ACT Test is a curriculum- and standards-based educational and career planning tool that assesses studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; academic readiness for college.(1) This graph shows how our schools have performed versus the Chicago Public School District and the average of the comparable neighborhood schools.
ACT Explore to ACT Test Composite Scaled Score Growth shows the average growth between the EXPLORE test administered in the fall of 9th grade year and ACT test administered the spring of 11th grade year.
ACT Test Percent of Students Making College Readiness Benchmarks are the percent of students who meet the college readiness benchmarks are those that are 50% likely to earn a B or better in the corresponding introductory college class.(2)
46 2011/12 AUSL Progress Report
The Illinois State Board of Education defines mobility as: The count of students who transfer-in and transfer-out of the school beginning with the first school day in October and continuing through the last day of the regular school year. A transfer-in is each instance in which a student is added to the enrollment roster of the school.
Turnarounds Schools: Turning around a school is one approach that Chicago Public Schools (CPS) uses to improve neighborhood schools that have been failing for many years. AUSL takes over the management of a turnaround school at the request of CPS. The school remains a public neighborhood school.
Training Academies: Training Academies are neighborhood schools in which residents from the Chicago Teacher Residency are trained. These schools are not turnarounds but were opened with the purpose of developing highly effective teachers for the challenging urban environment.
A transfer-out is each instance in which a student is removed from the enrollment roster of the school for whatever reason. Represents the year AUSL began managing the school either as a turnaround or a training academy.
The formula use to calculate the mobility is as follows: (Transfers In + Transfers Out)/Average Daily Enrollment)*100 = Mobility Rate(3)
Attendance represents the attendance rate for the 2011-2012 school year.
Free and Reduced Lunch represents the percent of students that qualify for free or reduced-price meals.
Freshman on Track is % of first-time freshman students that accumulated at least five course credits and failed no more than one semester course in a core subject (English, math, social science, or science) during the school year.(4)
The One-Year Drop Out Rate is the percent of students enrolled in grades nine through twelve at any time during a school year who dropped out during that year.(5)
Student enrollment on the 20th day of the 2012-2013 school year based on CPS data.
The five-year cohort graduation rate follows a group of students who enter Chicago Public Schools (CPS) as freshmen and calculates the percent of these students who graduate within five years after their freshman year.(6)
Students that enrolled in a postsecondary institution prior to Nov 1 following graduation.(7)

Appendix
Public-Private Partnership AUSL’s public-private partnership with Chicago Public Schools demonstrates an innovative model for urban education reform, a model that is proving effective in revitalizing failed schools. Longitudinal studies of children growing up in resource-poor areas, such as the neighborhoods in which AUSL schools are located, consistently reveal that these students are at high-risk of education underachievement as early as first grade. AUSL raises substantial funding from foundations, corporations, government agencies, and committed individuals to provide our students with the extra support structures above and beyond the resources CPS provides to each school for operation they need to be successful. These program services range from teacher coaches to afterschool programming and everything in between. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel has described the AUSL model as “a good return on taxpayer investment,” going on to say that “with AUSL, I get every dollar back.”

2011/12 AUSL Progress Report 61
AUSL recognizes that a child’s development and learning do not, and should not, begin and end when they walk through the doors of the school. In addition to forming strong relationships with parents and community members, AUSL establishes partnerships with many community-based organizations and local agencies that provide vital in-school and out-of-school services to our students. From tutoring to fine arts programming, AUSL’s partners offer our students an incredible range of life experiences to support their continuous growth.
