Focus on eliminating locally defined disparities | Use local data to identify inequalities in student achievement and prioritize efforts to improve student outcomes. Develop a culture of continuous improvement | Use local data, community expertise and national research to identify areas for constant, disciplined improvement. Leverage existing assets | Build on and align existing community resources to maximize impact of the work.

- 20. WHAT IS A COLLABORATIVE ACTION NETWORK? 8/15/2016 20 • Data is put to work in Collaborative Action Networks (CANs) — the engine behind collective impact. • A CAN is a group of people comprised of experts, practitioners, and providers who convene around a specific educational outcome and indicator. • The CAN is intended to serve as a learning community for network members who identify and share best practices, develop local solutions, and commit to engaging in continuous improvement processes within their own programs, institutions, and the CAN.
- 21. WHAT IS A COLLABORATIVE ACTION NETWORK? 8/15/2016 21 • This group will collectively create a charter, or a document that describes how the members will work together and hold each other accountable to shared measurements and action and the Geneva 2020 partnership as a whole. • Following the charter, an action plan that is informed by local data, local expertise, and national research is created and implemented. The plan will be monitored and improved over time using data and continuous improvement. The process of collaborative action is shown in the diagram to the right.

Editor's Notes
- Greg Baker’s report: AP tests/LEAP program (data would be great) Graduation Rate (2016 and 2017) Anything else new?
- Similar to last year: A focus on building your high school resume (AP and extracurriculars, work, internships), a college tour, residential education workshop, discussion of different types of colleges (college app), and a HWS student-led panel,
- The road to becoming a full Strive Together member. Why are we working so hard for this? The resources! The proven path to follow! Avoiding other’s mistakes!
- We have completed ALL the Exploring category. Now we are flying into Emerging.
- Harlam has also just been added—and they were a huge help when doing the assessment.
- Cradle to Career. Pivoting away from a NY-focused effort. Pushing all of the NY partnerships to become Strive Together members. Will continue to work with those established partnerships, like Geneva 2020, though meetings and general support, but it’s not the same level as we had previously. Glad we had it when we did!
- The road to becoming a full Strive Together member. Why are we working so hard for this? The resources! The proven path to follow! Avoiding other’s mistakes!
- Here is the basic outline. We are looking at between 20-30 pages total. Full color. The data is still the more difficult part. But we are getting there. I’m shooting for October, but if there is a hold-up, it will be data related. Important this is solid. We may go to Web based reports after this one (or do Web-based with smaller printed reports or pamphlets. Something to work out for next year.
- Great examples to work off of and to borrow from. Albany, Red Wing MN, Norwalk, VA. Great help in determining which data points we should use (we are all working off of similar outlines) and how to present.
- Again– just lots of good ideas that we will be able to jump off from.
- More brainstorming from StriveTogether examples. I plan to call some of the ones that I lived the most and get any tips or suggestions.
- Can not rush this piece. Time and time again I’ve heard from Strive Together and other partnerships that you must have the baseline report done. Then the data collected. Then the CAN can be brought together. Follow the plan to find success. Others have failed by starting too many CANs far too quickly.
- Literacy—most data. Then STEaM— Then Graduation Rate Who should serve on these?
- If there is time: Ask if there is any Geneva 2020 partner work anyone would like to share.
- COLLABORATION with SPECIFIC GOALS in mind…. These logos are just a small sample of what we represent by our participation here today. We are a part of something exciting, and collectively we are expressing a desire to learn what needs to be done to support long term success for Geneva’s youth.
