12 Indicators of Success
  • Senior level business/civic/education partnership
    is established to use these 12 best practices to
    develop a community career academy master plan.
  • Regional economic and workforce projections are
    used to prioritize career academy selection
    within the master plan and employer/educator
    councils are formed to match employee demand with
    education supply.
  • Community seeks out or develops academically
    rigorous advanced CTE offerings and programs of
    study, following duideli9nes set forth in Perkins
    IV.
  • Community employs career cluster entrepreneurs to
    rally and align business support.
  • Career academy evaluations support continuous
    improvement.
  • District centralizes all programs likely to
    involve business (magnet, Choice, small learning
    communities, career academies and CTE Operations)
    under one leader/department.

  • Perkins, SLC, and grant funding are channeled
    toward launching new career academies.
  • Community looks to identify and collaborate with
    a growing list of state and national career
    academies.
  • Community develops a career academy marketing
    plan to build awareness and support among
    parents, students and business and within the
    education community, and, gathers date to support
    the plan.
  • Business leaders representing each prioritized
    career cluster constitute on going business

    academies.

    career academy essentials.

    grant supported the creation of a district-wide
    system where nearly all students learn in small
    learning communities, the majority of which have
    career themes
  • Because all students learn in Career Academies,
    the following table on the following slides shows

The New Economic Development Reality
  • Recognize that a skilled workforce has become
    more important than land and buildings
  • Availability of a skilled workforce leads in
    three of four factors influencing growth (next
    slide)
  • Legacy costs or cost of place tops a fourth
    growth category High school non-completion
    (260,000 lifetime per dropout) is a huge factor
    in legacy of place costs -- more later on this
  • Adding just 20 skilled aerospace workers, each
    paid 50,000 per year, at a facility in Northwest
    Florida, adds business taxes of 172,000,
    2,020,000 in employee compensation, 7,717,500
    in business activity generated according to Haas
    Center in Pensacola, Fl
