2 Statements & Search Criteria Mission Statement UP Education Network (formerly Unlocking Potential Inc.) is one of the few school management organizations in the country successfully tackling the challenges of in-district school turnaround. Our mission is to rapidly transform chronically underperforming district schools into extraordinary schools that sustain high achievement over time. Our work is helping students from Massachusetts s historically underserved communities acquire the knowledge, skills, and strength of character necessary to succeed on the path to college. Background Statement UP Education Network was founded by Scott Given and Yutaka Tamura in 21, and the organization s launch had roots in their experience spearheading the transformation of Excel Academy Charter School in East Boston, MA. From 25-28, under their leadership, Excel Academy was transformed from an underperforming school into the highest-performing public middle school in the state. The motivating challenge of UP Education Network is to replicate and scale the success found at high-performing charter schools while operating within a district context. Impact Statement UP Academies are creating life-enhancing opportunities for the 2,6 students that we serve across our five district elementary and middle schools in Boston and Lawrence, Massachusetts. We are excited to launch a new UP Academy in Springfield in summer 216. Beyond the scope of this direct impact, we seek to drive a broader discussion on the challenging but necessary work of school turnaround. Our instructional practices borrow elements from high performing charter schools, and student growth at our existing UP Academies demonstrate the transferability of these practices to district settings. In bridging together the charter and district ecosystems, we are helping ensure that innovations in one sector are not isolated. As we rapidly grow our network, we seek to serve as school restart proof points that the same level of success our existing UP Academies have achieved can be replicated on a larger scale. Further, in addressing the turnaround of clusters of low-performing schools, we believe that our organization can contribute to tangible short-term and long-term social and economic improvements in the neighborhoods and communities that we serve. Needs Statement We leverage and need philanthropic resources for two purposes. First, these resources are used to restart additional schools. The launch of a new UP Academy requires a one-time investment of approximately $1,, during the 12 months prior to the school's opening, and the vast majority of these dollars are covered by philanthropy. (After beginning operations, every UP school is designed to self-sustain its core operating functions without ongoing private funding.) Second, we utilize philanthropy, in combination with a fee paid by each of our schools out of their public dollar allocation, to cover the network office expense of managing and supporting our operating schools. The network office supports the talent, academic, facilities, financial, technological, and other operational needs of our schools. As we scale, the share of school support costs covered by management fees from our schools will increase and thus our need for philanthropy to cover school support expenses will decrease. Based on the significant gains our scholars have made, we are encouraged and eager to bring the UP Academy model to additional schools and communities in the state. We intend to continue penetrating the Massachusetts market, aiming to impact nearly 1, students by 22. 2
3 CEO/Executive Director Statement In 29, U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan gave a rousing call to action for everyone who cares about public education to take on the toughest assignment of all and get in the business of turning around our lowest performing schools. To date, the vast majority of high quality school management organizations have shied away from district- and state-level opportunities to transform chronically underperforming schools. UP Education Network fills this urgent need as a unique partner to the school districts and cities, restarting district-identified underperforming schools under UP management but with local school district oversight. Service Categories Elementary & Secondary Schools Geographic Areas Served UP Education Network currently manages five schools in Boston and Lawrence, Massachusetts, serving 2,6 students in grades K-8. We are excited to open a new UP Academy in Springfield in summer 216. Please review online profile for full list of selected areas served. 3
4 Programs (1) School Restart Description To support the launch of a new restart school, we: Budget 17 (1) design extraordinary, financially sustainable schools; (2) prepare our schools future leaders; (3) attract and hire world class talent; (4) ensure the operational readiness of our schools; and (5) build strong relations with respective districts and other stakeholders. Through successful execution of these five pre-launch activities, and with a one-time investment of approximately $1,,, we are able to transform chronically underperforming schools into extraordinary schools that will sustain their operations on public funds. Category Education, General/Other Elementary & Secondary Education Population Served Children and Youth ( - 19 years),, Program Short Term Success In fall 213, the John P. Holland was one of four Massachusetts schools to be placed into Level 5, the most serious category in Massachusetts' accountability system. As a result, the Commonwealth appointed UP Education Network to become the receiver of the Holland. In August 214, we restarted the Holland as UP Academy Holland, opening our doors to approximately 72 K1-5 students in the Bowdoin-Geneva neighborhood of Boston. Program Long term Success By transforming chronically underperforming district schools into extraordinary schools, UP Education Network will ensure that some of the hardest-to-serve students in Massachusetts will acquire the knowledge, skills and strength of character necessary to succeed on the path to college and to achieve their full potential. Over time, by transforming multiple schools within respective urban districts, we will set a new bar for excellence within the district context and demonstrate best educational practices, leading toward the eventual elimination of struggling schools in the communities we serve. 4
5 Program Success Monitored By Prior to UP s management, the schools we are invited to restart typically have student proficiency rates of less than 25% in math and English Language Arts (ELA), often times even in the low double-digits. Each UP school has established a series of quantitative goals following their respective launches: after one year of our management at a given restart school, we aim for 45% of students to be proficient in math and 45% of students to be proficient in ELA. After four years of our management, we aim for 75% of our students to be proficient in math and 75% of our students to be proficient in ELA. Examples of Program Success (2) School Management & Support Description Upon school launch, we undertake five separate support activities: Budget 24 (1) stimulate innovation and share best practices; (2) support school leaders and manage school quality; (3) strengthen, develop, and retain talent; (4) deliver high-quality academic and operational home office services; and (5) manage district, governance, and other external relations.
