Saint Joseph Ballet uses a number of assessment tools to track the outcomes of its programming which include: attendance monitoring, report card collections, parent questionnaires, and regular meetings which include students, parents, faculty members and program staff. Saint Joseph Ballet provides a safe, after-school environment for Santa Ana youth with limited means, helping them pave a collegiate path and become productive citizens. Saint Joseph Ballet's registration form collects demographic information to ensure it is serving low-income residents of Santa Ana. Roll is taken daily, and on a bi-monthly basis, Saint Joseph Ballet configures an attendance percentage for each student. This information is made available to the student who, if necessary, may take make-up classes to improve it. Each cycle, or every eight weeks, the attendance is configured and students are required to have at least a 70% attendance for that eight week period. Saint Joseph Ballet's student database maintains vital information on each program participant. Twice a year (August and January) report cards are collected from each student, grade point averages (GPA) tabulated and results recorded in this database. The Academic Manager then reviews GPAs and report cards to determine which students require one- on-one tutoring assistance, monitor student progress throughout the year, and schedule family intervention sessions if significant drops in student performances are noted. By closely monitoring students' academic performance, Saint Joseph Ballet can provide necessary academic assistance to students and ensure that they pursue a collegiate path. Field trip participation, family services programming and summer camp attendance is also tracked. Exhibit A-1 Page 3 of 3
