Goal 2: Increase to 85% the number of children ages 5 through 18 who possess at least three of the following Developmental Assets: 1. Positive, responsible adult role models; 2. involvement of the local community in projects; 3. Service to others; 4. effective peer relationships; and 5. time spent in creative activities, for children enrolled in the Mentoring Academy, as measured by the Developmental Assets Profile (a standardized test for measuring the number of assets a child has). Baseline: 79% of children in the Mentoring Academy are building at least 3 assets. 5-8 year old will be rated by staff. 9-18 year old will self-administer test. Result: We measured the pre/post test results of the Developmental Assets Profile and found that the post-tests indicate that 89% of children enrolled in Youth Guidance are building or possess at least three of the five assets listed above. Goal 3: Increase the minimum amount of time a child spends in the Mentoring Academy from an average of 1.84 hours per week to 2.5 hours per week over a 48 week period annually for 80% of enrolled children, as measured by time and attendance records. Baseline: 1.84 hours per week. Result: Our overall average of mentoring hours per week has risen to 2.5 hours per week per child. Our average mentoring hours per week for middle schoolchildren is 5.5 hours per week. This goal is being met. Tutoring Achievements: Through a grant from PNC we developed a partnership with Miss B's Learning Bees, to provide extended learning opportunities through academic enrichment for our students. These included diagnostics, development of an Individual Academic Plan, and year end evaluation. The report submitted from Miss B's indicated that we provided services for a total of 47 students in grades K-12. Results indicated that 89% of those students made between 25-40% learning gains on locally created benchmark assessments. -49- 62 49- 62
