In 2006, a group of leaders from various sectors came together with one goal in mind: to improve academic success in the urban core of Greater Cincinnati. More than 300 cross-sector representatives joined the partnership, including school district superintendents, early-childhood educators, non-profit practitioners, business leaders, community and corporate funders, city officials, and university presidents. All these leaders were dedicated to seeing our students succeed. These leaders had no intention of launching a new program, but rather a partnership where they would work together to transform education. They agreed on a common set of goals, outcomes and success indicators, including kindergarten readiness, fourth-grade reading and math scores, graduation rates and college completion. The partnership recognized that aligning their work, setting goals together, and investing in a common vision would fundamentally change the current state of how they approached the larger system of education. The partnership’s work is dedicated to supporting every child, every step of the way, cradle to career. This work is accomplished through: Catalyzing and supporting collaborative action Promoting a culture of continuous improvement Aligning resources to what works The partnership is driven by five shared goals. We work so every child: 1. Is prepared for school 2. Is supported outside of school 3. Succeeds academically 4. Completes some form of postsecondary education or training, and 5. Enters and advances in a meaningful career
