In 2008, Mayor Nutter established the Mayor’s Office of Education (MOE) within the Mayor’s Office to work on aspirational goals of increasing the high school graduation rate to 80% by 2015 and raising the rate of Philadelphia residents with a college degree to 36% by 2018 (within 10 years) Currently, the on-time high school graduation rate is 65%, up from 53% in 2007, and the percentage of residents with a 4-year college degree or higher is 25.2%, up from 18% in 2007. The MOE has built networks for communication and collaboration and identified common ground on which all stakeholders, including K-12 schools, the business community, higher education and the non-profit sector can achieve the following key outcomes: to help the School District of Philadelphia (the District) establish financial stability and increase educational outcomes, improve parent and community engagement efforts, provide all Philadelphians access to high-quality educational options and increase the number of youth who graduate from high school ready for post-secondary success. The MOE also works with K-12 schools and area higher education institutions to strengthen the educational pipeline from high school through college completion and to increase the number of Philadelphians with a college degree.

Budget Trends: The City has increased its annual

funding to public education by more than $360 million from FY09 – the first budget of Nutter Administration – to FY15. The Administration and City Council have implemented legislation that contributed more to the District in terms of total dollar increases than in any similar period over the past 30 years. With authorization from the State, the City extended the additional 1% sales tax and passed a $2.00 per pack tax on cigarettes to provide new, recurring revenues

to the District. The City has also increased the District portion of the property tax (FY12), Parking Authority fines (FY12), Use and Occupancy tax (FY13), parking meter rates (FY14), and the City Contribution (FY12 and FY13, FY15, one-time through a borrowing) to generate additional, recurring revenues for the District during recent budget crises. This extraordinary amount of funding has been borne by Philadelphia taxpayers, home owners, and local businesses.

FIVE-YEAR FINANCIAL AND STRATEGIC PLAN FY16-FY20 MOE Since FY11, local funding has made up an increasing share of all District operating revenue, replacing revenue lost from recent cuts to State funding. As a percentage of the District’s total operating revenues, local funding has increased to 47%, the highest percentage in 30 years, with a significant increase since FY11. While these increased dollars were necessary, the funding alone has not been sufficient to allow the schools provide for the safe school environments and necessary curricular and extracurricular activities for Philadelphia youth.

The table below shows the contributions made out of the General Fund to the District and the Community College of Philadelphia. In FY14, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania contributed a one-time additional contribution of $45 million to the District, which was disbursed as a pass through from the General Fund and included in the FY14 actual figure. Funding for the School District in FY15 was almost 87% or $32.1 million higher than FY08’s level.

FY08 Actual FY14 Actual FY15 Current Projection FY16 Proposed Budget FY16-FY15 Change Percent Change FY16-FY15

School District Contribution 37,000,000 114,050,100 69,110,300 69,184,673 74,373 0.1%

Total 61,467,924 140,459,307 96,019,507 99,493,880 3,474,373 3.6% For FY16, the District requested an additional $309 million in recurring funding: $103 million on a recurring basis from the City and $206 million from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. As noted in the District’s FY15-FY19 Five Year Financial Plan released in December 2014, the state portion of the request will increase to $609 million by FY19 while the local portion will grow to $304 million over the same period. This requested funding would be in addition to the revenues generated from the City’s current local tax and non-tax contributions to the District.

The District’s Five Year Financial Plan indicates that the requested funding will be used to close anticipated budget gaps from FY16 to FY19 (due primarily to slow natural growth of revenues and increases in mandated expenditures for pensions and charter schools) and provide critical investments in educational programming, resources, and personnel. This Five Year Plan proposes to meet the FY16 revenue request of the District through a property tax increase to generate approximately $105 million for the District, assuming a July 1, 2015 implementation date. The total tax rate would increase from 1.34% to 1.465%, a 9.3% tax increase.

Performance Trends: Despite very challenging economic circumstances, the 4-year cohort high school graduation rate has increased to 65% in FY14, up from 64% in FY13 and 57% in FY08. Among those graduating within 4 to 6 years, graduation rates have improved from 60% to 70% for the cohort graduating in 2013-2014. The percentage of residents over the age of 25 with a Bachelor’s degree increased from 21% in 2008 to 25.2% in 2014. While progress is being made, it takes time to realize gains in educational attainment. Based on historical trends in educational achievement, the City aims to increase the high school graduation rate to 67% in FY16 (+2%) and to improve the percentage of residents with 4-year college degrees to 26.2% by 2016 (+1%).

Accomplishments & Initiatives

Strengthening K-12 Educational Systems: The Mayor’s

Office of Education and the School Reform Commission work closely together and have a shared commitment to the District’s dual goals of providing a quality education to all Philadelphia students and obtaining fiscal stability in the District’s finances. The Mayor’s Chief Education Officer is included in standing committees on key educational policy issues and is joined by the City’s Finance Director for bi-weekly meetings on the District’s finances, and these efforts will continue through FY16.

Advocating for a Full and Fair Funding Formula:MOE

will continue to advocate for a statewide formula for basic education funding. In November 2014, the City hosted a hearing for the Basic Education Funding Commission for a discussion on the need for an education funding formula. Pennsylvania is one of only three states without a statewide funding formula for the distribution basic education funds, and a 15- member Commission of state legislatures was established in 2014 to make recommendations to the General Assembly. City and District representatives, including the Mayor, along with education advocates,

testified on the need for a fair funding formula that accounts for student needs and area wealth, as well as the District’s specific funding challenges relative to other schools in Pennsylvania. The Commission’s recommendations are due in April 2015.

Incentivizing Youth: The Mayor’s Very Impressive

Program (VIP) is in its sixth year of rewarding Philadelphia high school (Archdiocese, Charter, District and Private) students with good attendance records and high Grade Point Averages (GPAs) with tickets to sporting events. Students are selected by their schools on the basis of school attendance and academic performance. Since the program’s inception, over 9,078 tickets have been distributed and more than 90 high schools have participated in the program, with 1,385 students receiving tickets in FY12 and 1,519 students in FY13.

Each June, the Mayor gives awards to around one thousand high achieving and graduating high school seniors, from public and private schools. The event kicks off with a march up Broad Street and culminates with a ceremony in the City Hall courtyard where the

FIVE-YEAR FINANCIAL AND STRATEGIC PLAN FY16-FY20 MOE Mayor’s $5,000 Scholarship for Academic Excellence

and Civic Engagement is awarded, as well as hundreds of other prizes and awards.

Philadelphia Talent Collaborative: Four organizations

partnered to establish a Talent Collaborative, to combine strengths and work strategically to improve educational outcomes and the economic viability in Philadelphia. Two non-profits – Graduate! and Campus Philly – partnered with the City’s PhillyGoes2College and Graduation Coach campaign (described below). In FY16, the City is funding the Talent Collaborative for the first time as a distinct entity, with goals of furthering college attainment for residents, enhance the capacity of young adults to earn family-sustaining wages, and build Philadelphia’s attractiveness to businesses seeking talent. The four organizations will also be resourced to collaborate strategically and consistently to ensure Philadelphians can access all points of the Collaborative as they move through its pipeline. More details on PhillyGoes2College and the Graduation Coach campaign are provided below.

PhillyGoes2College: Launched in 2010,

PhillyGoes2College (PG2C) serves as a crucial, citywide resource for residents of any age who would like to attend college and complete a college degree. The program promotes and supports a college-going culture among citizens by providing high-quality college access information that is current, comprehensive, and accessible. PG2C provides a clearinghouse of quality and vetted resources and sponsors programs that pair college students with high school students to help complete college and scholarship applications. Through workshops, presentations, school visits and large scale college- promoting events, PhillyGoes2College has reached over 30,000 citizens since it began in 2010. The PG2C website, www.phillygoes2college.com, has been accessed more than 200,000 times since its launch, with 5,170 new visits since October 2014. PG2C offers three main citywide events, including Students with a Goal (SWAG) week, Top of the Class, and College Awareness MonthPhillyGoes2College also launched

Connect2College, a new service delivery model in response to the lack of citywide college access services, the cuts of counselors and student success centers, and the low college attainment rates of Philadelphians. PhillyGoes2College is an important strategy to address Mayor Nutter’s goal to double the percentage of Philadelphians who attend and complete college in the next five to ten years and has received the Outstanding Achievement Award from the U.S. Conference of Mayors.

Connect2College: PhillyGoes2College has developed a

comprehensive strategy to address the loss of citywide college-going resources and the low college attainment rates in Philadelphia. PhillyGoes2College’s new initiative, Connect2College, includes a community-based, geographically dispersed model of partnering with existing organizations, as well as a coordinated digital plan. Collaboration is a central element of this strategy and with 17 initial Connect2College Labs and the capacity to bring on more, Philadelphia residents will gain access to on- going support and information on college access in a convenient and familiar place.

The Graduation Coach Campaign: The Graduation

Coach Campaign (Campaign) is a grassroots effort to engage adults in taking on a more robust role in helping young people in their lives graduate from high school, get into college, and plan for a career. Originally housed at the Philadelphia Youth Network, the Campaign was brought under the umbrella of PhillyGoes2College in March 2011. Since September 2010 the Campaign has trained over 6,000 Coaches through 496 workshops. In FY14, 986 coaches were trained through 91 workshops. The Campaign has also implemented a new video campaign allowing for potential coaches to receive Campaign training on their own time. These videos will be available on smart phones, tablets, laptops, desktops, Comcast On Demand, Philly in Focus, and Mind TV, the GCC website, the YouTube channel, social media and partner networks as well. Thirty videos, including 18 tutorials for adults, have been filmed to date, and 15 additional tutorials will be completed by the end of

2015. To date, the videos have been viewed 3,000. MOE anticipates video views to increase to 5,000 by the end of 2015.

In addition, the Campaign implemented a neighborhood-focused grassroots campaign in the Kensington area. This approach will allow Campaign staff to interact with a community that has a low college attainment rate and has individuals who are unlikely to attend and in-person workshop or access training videos online. To date, the Campaign has distributed 16,178 print materials through in-person canvassing efforts, partnerships with 11 schools, 9 local businesses, 4 local health centers, 8 community organizations, 3 churches, 5 nonprofit organizations, and 43 neighborhood events (e.g. block parties, talent shows, cleanups). The resource guide is also shared electronically on Twitter and via the GCC monthly newsletter which goes out to 3,000 coaches.

Citywide College Financing Campaign: The MOE

convenes the College Completion Committee which includes 10-12 “retention officers” from area colleges and universities and senior leadership from the District who meet each month to review institutional data on graduation rates and discuss strategies for increasing the number of Philadelphians graduating from their institutions. Lack of financial resources is one of the primary factors for students not completing on time. Therefore, as part of the Financing College Campaign, colleges and universities have increased outreach efforts to assist families in completing their financial aid packages. Since MOE has been organizing citywide Financing College Campaigns, there has been a 21.7% increase in the number of students who completed the Free Application for Federal Student Aid through January 1, 2014 (most recent report available).

Moreover, the Mayor’s Council for College and Career Success – comprised of leaders from government, K- 12 and higher education, employers, foundations and youth-focused community organizations – organizes

and leads city-wide efforts to achieve the Mayor’s education goals. Major areas of focus for this Council are youth workforce development, dropout prevention, and college readiness.

Community College of Philadelphia: The Nutter

administration is focused on increasing the high school and college graduation rates, continuing to strengthen the K-through-16 pipeline and developing a local labor force for the 21st Century. A vital partner in that work is the Community College of Philadelphia (CCP). With 37,658 students, CCP is the largest institution of higher education in Philadelphia and the sixth largest in the state. The Mayor demonstrated his commitment to Community College’s success by joining the Board in October 2012. The MOE is working with CCP to ensure that students who enroll into the college complete their educational goals. The completion rates for degree and certificate programs are low compared to community colleges in other large urban areas. Through an initiative of the national organization Complete College America, MOE is leading a team of CCP administrators to develop strategies for increasing persistence and completion. In the fall of 2014, CCP launched a pilot program “Complete with 15” which provided incentives for students to complete their associate’s degree in four semesters. The team decided to focus its attention on providing more guided pathways for students to navigate the institution. Pathways will include prescribed course plans, structured academic advising, accelerated completion of developmental coursework and improved articulation with transfer programs and courses. In support of the recent proposal to offer free tuition to community college students, the team is strengthening articulation agreements to improve transfer rates to four-year institutions. Also joining this team are four-year institutional partners Temple, Drexel and the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education. In FY16, the City will provide $30.3 million

to CCP, a $3.4 million or 12.6% increase above FY15 levels, to keep tuition affordable.

College Completion Initiative “Fifteen to Finish”: The Fifteen to Finish Campaign encourages students

FIVE-YEAR FINANCIAL AND STRATEGIC PLAN FY16-FY20 MOE attending or planning to attend college to take 15

credits per semester to graduate on time. The on-time completion campaign will involve a comprehensive communications campaign featuring the Mayor, college presidents, other elected officials and dignitaries, promoting strong messages about the need to complete a degree once started. The campaign will develop a website to direct students to institutional completion initiatives such as CCP’s “Complete with 15” or Temple’s “Fly in 4”, multimedia communications strategies utilizing traditional radio and television promotional messages as well as social media, posters, and other promotional materials. College students will be recruited to help students prepare a graduation plan prior to matriculation to their postsecondary institution. The goal is to reach every college-bound student prior to starting their college career. The estimated cost for the marketing campaign is $50,000 and college student mentoring is $25,000 ($2,500 at 10 institutions).

Providing Important Supplies for Students: In

September 2013, Mayor Nutter launched the Philadelphia Education Supplies Fund, a new fundraising campaign to provide funds to schools within the City in order to purchase consumable supplemental classroom supplies, including workbooks, paper, pens and pencils. This fund was created to alleviate some of the hardships being experienced by high-poverty schools. Under the stated criteria, schools with at least a 50% free and reduced price lunch population were eligible to apply, and those with more than 75% free and reduced price lunches will receive greater amounts, in each case based on enrollment. The City has contributed $200,000 to the Fund in FY15 and intends to do the same for at least the next four years. Over $540,000 was raised for the fund and 255 schools will receive funds, including 209 School District of Philadelphia operated schools, 20 charters, 13 Archdiocesan and 13 independent/private schools.

US2020 and STEMcityPHL: In May 2014, Philadelphia

was announced as one of seven winning cities of the US2020 City Competition, a national competition to encourage mentoring in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). This initiative has since launched an online STEM resource center (STEMcityPHL.org) and established a coalition of over 125 organizations.
