Piedmont Housing Alliance announces its partnership with Capital One to help provide residents in the Thomas Jefferson Planning District with free housing and financial counseling services. A recent $10,000 grant from Capital One will support Housing Counseling and Asset-Building for low-income families in this high-cost housing area. “Capital One’s consistent support of our core housing counseling services is incredibly important to this community,” said Karen Reifenberger, chief operating officer. “We are very grateful for their continued shared interest in financially strong families. The funding will enable us to work with clients to improve their rental or credit situation, purchase a home, and avoid foreclosure, while connecting them with asset-building resources such as down payment assistance for home ownership and the Virginia Individual Development Account (VIDA) matched savings program.” Specifically, the grant supports Piedmont Housing Alliance’s Housing Counseling program that helps clients with very low to moderate incomes to maintain or improve their housing within a budget that also can support other basic needs and improve family economic stability. Certified housing counselors educate and coach clients on financial management, credit improvement, home purchase, and foreclosure prevention. The program, which serves approximately 300 new clients in one-on-one counseling and education each year in addition to ongoing clients, improves families’ lives and builds a stronger community by helping families get control of their household budget, walking them through the steps of becoming first time home buyers, keeping them from foreclosure, and securing a more stable financial future. Piedmont Housing Alliance is an affordable housing non-profit working in the city of Charlottesville and

Albemarle, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, and Nelson counties. The mission of Piedmont Housing is to create housing opportunities and build community through education, lending, and development. Piedmont Housing is a HUD-certified housing counseling agency, state-certified Community Housing Development Organization, and US Treasury certified Community Development Financial Institution.

Albemarle County Public Schools The Albemarle County Public School Division’s strategic plan lists one goal—to have every student graduate having actively mastered the lifelong-learning skills they need to suc-

ceed as 21st century learners, workers and citizens. This past year, the division’s ontime graduation rate reached 94.3 percent, higher than the statewide rate for every one of the nation’s 50 states. Nearly seven out of ten graduates received Advanced Studies Diplomas, well above the 50 percent rate for all school divisions across the Commonwealth. The drop-out rate for Albemarle County public school students was 2.3 percent, less than one-half of the 5.2 percent statewide rate and far below the most recently reported national rate of seven percent. The foundation for this consistent outperformance by local students can be found in a 2015 national survey by Niche, an education assessment organization. Each year, Niche evaluates more than 100,000 public and private schools and school divisions across the country. The evaluation includes a comprehensive analysis of perfor-

Top Two Percent of Nation In 2015, Albemarle County Public Schools placed within the top two percent of all school divisions in the United States. In three categories, academics, educational outcomes and teaching, the division earned an A+ rating and in four other areas, administration & policies, extracurricular programs, sports & fitness and culture & diversity programs, the division received an A rating. In a companion study, all three of the division’s comprehensive high schools were ranked within the top five percent of all high schools in the nation. The pathway to these results at the high school level is formed at the very earliest grades based upon five objectives adopted by the School Board. They include engaging every student, implementing balanced assessments of student learning, improving achievement by improving opportunities, establishing and expanding partnerships with the business community and other organizations, and optimizing the value and impact of all resources. Student engagement regularly is addressed through the use of the most innovative technologies and instructional methods in the classroom to empower students to complete self-designed projects. This hands-on approach to learning emphasizes not only the acquisition of knowledge but its application. Students develop problem-solving skills in such areas as creativity, critical thinking, collaboration and communication. One such example at the end of the 2015-16 school year involved middle school students who volunteered to

design, develop and complete a project in which a weather balloon soared to more than 100,000 feet to collect data and photograph the earth’s curvature. Balanced assessments represent a forceful step away from rote learning and evaluate students on the basis of the skills they bring to a project, whether printing out components on a 3D printer to assemble an invention, recreating an historical artifact to develop a deeper understanding of history, science or literature or writing and performing an original musical or dramatic piece. The division’s commitment to eliminating opportunity gaps among students resulted in its becoming one of the first public school divisions in the nation to adopt a plan to eliminate the digital divide for all school families. Re-purposing its FCC-allocated spectrum, the division is providing free broadband access to the homes of students who have not previously had such access, often because of their geographic location. Within a short period of time, all students will be able to fully access the Internet at home for their academic research and to further their project-based learning needs. Through its three high school academies for Math, Engineering & Science, Health & Medical Sciences and Environmental Studies, the division is building strong connections with local businesses and service organizations, more closely aligning curriculum with the county and nation’s professional requirements.

Bond Referendum In recent years, the school division has increased its operational efficiencies through such innovative initiatives as energy conservation measures that have generated hundreds of thousands

of dollars in cost avoidance, new contracting guidelines that have reduced expenditures by nearly a quarter-million dollars and consolidated bus routes that have lowered fuel costs by millions of dollars. In a school division continuing to add students as the result of the county’s sustained growth pattern, nearly one-third of all Albemarle County Public School students currently attend over-crowded schools. If there are no additions to the current capacity of schools, in a few years, that percentage will exceed 50 percent. In the summer of 2016, the School Board requested the Board of Supervisors approve a school bond referendum for the November 2016 ballot to finance a series of projects that would benefit every school in the division and reduce over-crowded conditions. If the bond referendum is approved by the voters and the Board of Supervisors, it would lower the financing and administrative costs of these capital projects by more than $1 million compared to the current public borrowing method.

schools, and eleven elementary schools. Additionally, the division operates a regional career and technical center, a regional governor’s school, a regional special education program and a regional Head Start program. Currently the division employs approximately 900 teachers and offers advanced curriculum in language arts, science, foreign language, mathematics, social studies, physical education, and fine arts with college credit available. The schools offer a program for gifted and talented students in the areas of language arts, mathematics, art, music, and drama as well as education programs in agriculture, business, family and consumer sciences, technology, trade and industry. Extensive media services and connections to the Internet are provided to all students and personnel. Summer school enrichment and remedial programs are available as well as special education programs to provide a continuum of services for students with special needs.

dle School (7-8) and Charlottesville High School (9-12). As of October 2015, enrollment for preK-12 was 4,379 students. Neighborhood schools with a global orientation expose students to diverse experiences, viewpoints, and opportunities—preparing them not only for post-secondary education but for life. Small class sizes promote individual attention in a collaborative climate. With extraordinary fine arts, the latest STEM technologies, a computer for every student, and more, the City schools are White House-certified to be “future-ready” and a charter member of the League of Innovative Schools. Charlottesville City Schools is known for its commitment to the fine arts. Just this year, the CHS Orchestra and both the Buford Middle School Band and Orchestra all earned Grand Champion in statewide or multi-state competitions. Art and music begins in the elementary schools, and fourth-graders even participate in a year-long dance program with the Richmond Ballet. From fifth grade on, students can be active in art, band, choir, orchestra, theatre, and special programs such as dance or step teams. Students also learn about the arts through regular field trips to live performances as well as school visits from guest artists and authors. New science and engineering labs at Buford Middle School and Charlottesville High School support innovative STEM education. Buford’s science and engineering program is a cutting-edge collaboration between the University of Virginia’s Curry School of Education and School of Engineering and Applied Science, the Smithsonian Institution, and other area school divisions. CHS offers every possible AP class in computer science, engineering, math, and science, and the school’s science club regularly wins honors in state and international competitions. In the 2016-17 school year, “iSTEM” teachers will work in all the Charlottesville schools—even at the elementary level—to lay a strong, handson foundation for science, technology, engineering, and math. The Charlottesville schools are part of their community and the world! In the past year, CCS students won acclaim in art, athletics, debate, engineering, geography, history, math, music, science, and writing—and that’s simply the list from Buford Middle School! Students begin studying Spanish in first grade, and by the time they attend CHS, they can choose from Chinese, French, German, Latin, Spanish, and even American Sign Language.

Madison County Public Schools Pride. In all, Madison is known not so much by “schools” as by educational families—students surrounded by caring, thoughtful parents and community members who expect graduates to have earned a top-notch education. Our students attend Virginia’s and the nation’s top schools and enter the workforce exceptionally well prepared. This great feat is accomplished by a caring community centered on what we call “Madison Pride”—the drive to provide children an absolutely remarkable education and a plethora of opportunities. Schools. For nearly two decades, student enrollment has hovered around 2,000 students in four schools: Madison Primary School (PK-2), Waverly Yowell Elementary School (3-5), William H.

Madison County Public Schools (MCPS), a student-centered and community-supported school division, insures a superior education in a changing world. Our vision is to build on excellence to exceed community expectations—to be the best. In Madison, we are proud of excellent schools, which focus on traditional methods and progressive programs in our never-ending cycle of improvement. This is why we are regarded as a superior school division in the Commonwealth. We are committed to helping students acquire the strong values to deal effectively with important intellectual, ethical, and social problems. Responding to community, parent, and workforce expectations, MCPS aims to educate children to be prepared for good citizenry and life-long learning. Twenty-first century skills require that tomorrow’s workforce be adept at technology, excellent communicators, responsible employees, and physically fit and active. To this end, we want every secondary student to take Dual Enrollment, Advanced Placement, or earn an Industry Certification prior to graduation as well as a foreign language. And, we encourage all students to be scholar-athletes or scholar-performers. MCPS embraces the notion of global awareness. We aim to provide world awareness through foreign language, current events, classes in culture and diversity, as well as K-12 division wide studies on a central question. We support enrichment experiences for all students to engage them with the world beyond Madison and by developing national and international con-

nections through virtual exchanges with national and international sister schools. We fully support the incorporation of cultures and current events of local, national and international communities at every grade level. Equally, we support the notion of community citizenry and awareness. MCPS embraces our local community that is rich in history and tradition. Our landscape boasts preeminent countryside—mountain life and flatlands, rich with agriculture, viniculture, forestry, and pastureland. We expect students to know our Madison community and natural wealth as we encourage field trips, community service projects and service learning. In our preeminent countryside, students have the opportunity to experience and learn from our amazing location.
