THE FOUNDATION FOCUSES IN THREE AREAS; STUDENT SUCCESS, TEACHING INNOVATION AND COLLEGE AND CAREER READINESS. 0 0 650937 EARLY LITERACY: THE RICHMOND ED FUND INVESTED IN IMPLEMENTING EVIDENCE-BASED EARLY LITERACY INSTRUCTION ACROSS RICHMOND PUBLIC SCHOOLS BY SUPPORTING THE SCIENCE OF READING APPROACH THROUGH UFLI AND PROVIDING ONGOING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FOR ALL K2 TEACHERS, LED BY LITERACY COACHES. AS VIRGINIA TRANSITIONED FROM THE PHONOLOGICAL AWARENESS LITERACY SCREENING (PALS) TO THE VIRGINIA LANGUAGE & LITERACY SCREENING SYSTEM (VALLSS), RICHMOND PUBLIC SCHOOLS ACHIEVED A 14-POINT GROWTH IN EARLY LITERACY OUTCOMES IN FY25. THESE INVESTMENTS STRENGTHEN FOUNDATIONAL READING SKILLS, WHICH ARE CLOSELY LINKED TO LONG-TERM ACADEMIC SUCCESS, GRADUATION RATES, AND WORKFORCE READINESS, REDUCING FUTURE REMEDIATION COSTS, IMPROVING THE RETURN ON PUBLIC EDUCATION INVESTMENTS, AND STRENGTHENING THE REGION'S LONG-TERM TALENT PIPELINE. 85000 RPS200: THE RICHMOND ED FUND CONTINUED SUPPORTING RPS200, AN EXTENDED LEARNING TIME INITIATIVE AIMED AT ACCELERATING ACADEMIC PROGRESS FOR STUDENTS WHO BENEFIT MOST FROM EXTRA INSTRUCTION AND ENRICHMENT. BY INCREASING LEARNING TIME WITHOUT NEEDING SIGNIFICANT NEW INFRASTRUCTURE, THE INITIATIVE MAXIMIZES THE USE OF EXISTING SCHOOL RESOURCES WHILE ACHIEVING NOTABLE ACADEMIC GAINS FOR PARTICIPATING STUDENTS. THIS APPROACH ENHANCES SKILL DEVELOPMENT, ENSURES ON-TIME GRADE PROGRESSION, AND IMPROVES LONG-TERM WORKFORCE READINESS, THEREBY INCREASING THE OVERALL RETURN ON PUBLIC EDUCATION INVESTMENTS AND HELPING BUILD A STRONGER, MORE DEPENDABLE FUTURE WORKFORCE FOR THE RICHMOND REGION. 3943483 RPS LEADS: THE RICHMOND ED FUND SUPPORTED RPS LEADS, A YEARLONG LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM DESIGNED TO PREPARE ASSISTANT PRINCIPALS AND NEW PRINCIPALS TO BECOME HIGHLY EFFECTIVE SCHOOL LEADERS ACROSS RICHMOND PUBLIC SCHOOLS. PARTICIPANTS ENGAGED IN INTENSIVE PROFESSIONAL LEARNING AND COACHING ALIGNED WITH DISTRICT PRIORITIES, RESULTING IN 100% RETENTION OF COHORT MEMBERS AND TWO PROMOTIONS TO EXPANDED LEADERSHIP ROLES. INVESTMENTS IN LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT STRENGTHEN SCHOOL PERFORMANCE, IMPROVE TEACHER RETENTION, AND REDUCE COSTLY LEADERSHIP TURNOVER, ENSURING STRONGER INSTRUCTIONAL ENVIRONMENTS AND INCREASING THE LONG-TERM RETURN ON PUBLIC EDUCATION INVESTMENTS THROUGH MORE STABLE AND EFFECTIVE SCHOOL LEADERSHIP. 4679420 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 24 0 1 3 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 15 15 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 X THE ORGANIZATION 8047808623 301 N 9TH ST 17TH FLOOR RICHMOND VA 23219 KATHY BURCHER BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 DR GENEVIEVE SIEGEL-HAWLEY BOARD MEMBER 3.00 X 0 0 0 MATT CONRAD BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 REV DR EMANUEL HARRIS BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 DR MEGAN HEALY BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 CARLOS HOPKINS BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 DR JOSE MOREY BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 RUPA MURTHY BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 DAVID MILLS CHAIR 5.00 X X 0 0 0 DR THAD WILLIAMSON VICE CHAIR 5.00 X X 0 0 0 WENDY P LEWIS TREASURER 3.00 X X 0 0 0 TRACY BROWER DEPUTY EXEC DIRECTOR-ENDED 2/25 40.00 X 78519 0 1562 TAIKEIN COOPER CEO 40.00 X 136114 0 2921 MARTIN SUTLER VP-STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP & INITIATIVES 40.00 X 0 0 0 214633 0 4483 1 0 0 0 0 4680010 4680010 7528 7528 4687538 0 0 7528 X 252560 50512 101024 101024 28882 5768 11577 11537 803754 739398 41205 23151 11266 1400 6948 2918 17676 16573 1103 7616 3808 3808 2590 1295 1295 71719 65243 3238 3238 4880 4880 EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING 3208074 3208074 PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMEN 384563 336549 14 48000 SPECIAL EVENTS 235735 235735 OTHER 15472 15472 2571 888 1153 530 5047358 4679420 176245 191693 1171314 4228822 2781613 3952927 4228822 106374 742089 106374 742089 X 219830 541074 3626723 2945659 3846553 3486733 3952927 4228822 -359820 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 846273 1170478 1130638 3498402 4680010 11325801 846273 1170478 1130638 3498402 4680010 11325801 6605559 4720242 434 498 941 2163 7528 11564 11337365 0.41630 0.49340 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 X 4687538 0 4687538 0 4687538 5047358 0 5047358 0 5047358 PART X, LINE 2: THE FOUNDATION FOLLOWS THE FASB GUIDANCE FOR HOW UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS SHOULD BE RECOGNIZED, MEASURED, DISCLOSED AND PRESENTED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
