With funding from The James Irvine Foundation, BtG partnerships focus on firstgeneration college students, students of color, and low-income students who face substantial barriers in meeting their educational goals.  \nThis series explores the experiences of two California partnerships that joined the Bridging the Gap initiative in 2016: one in Long Beach and the other in the Salinas Valley.

We attempt to answer the question: How have two distinct regional education partnerships worked across systems to increase college readiness for broad populations of students?  \nThe BtG initiative coincided with policy reforms at the state and system levels to transform curricular and assessment practices in the K-12 schools, basic skills and developmental education at the California Community Colleges, and remedial and general education at the California State University.* Due to these and other reforms within the systems, working across systems increasingly became an immediate and practical need for those seeking to improve student transitions from high school to postsecondary education. During BtG, the partners adapted to the reforms within their own systems and worked with those in the other systems to understand the impacts on their practices. Their efforts testify to the importance of, and  \n* The K‐12 schools were continuing the implementation of new state standards and assessments and adapting to anew accountability system that includes a college and career readiness indicator. The CCCs were revamping basic skills education under AB 705 (Irwin, 2017) and implementing a Guided Pathways initiative, as well as several other reforms. The CSU was implementing Graduation Initiative 2025 and transforming development education and general education under the Chancellor’s Office’s Executive Orders 1100 and 1110.  \nchallenges inherent in, working across systems to support students’ educational and career goals from high school to and through college.  \nThe Long Beach initiative leveraged its decades-long education partnership between the City, the school district, Long Beach Community College (LBCC) and California State University Long Beach (CSULB) to develop a coherent cross-system approach to offering dual enrollment courses, pilot and implement new career exploration tools, and develop a data warehouse. The partnership prioritized dual enrollment as a key element of its college and career readiness strategy. LBCC increased dual enrollment opportunities in six-industry related pathways, and CSULB developed one course in Ethnic Studies targeting underrepresented students who may not consider themselves college-bound, and another in mathematic thinking for high school students not planning to pursue STEM majors. Partners supported these efforts with coordinated messaging and outreach to students and parents, and professional development for faculty who teach dual enrollment courses. Most interviewees described this approach as a key strength of the Long Beach partnership.  \nThe Salinas Valley BtG initiative faced a different set of imperatives given the region’s broad geographic footprint and limited collaborations among partners prior to BtG. Partners focused primarily on increasing the number of high school students who complete dual enrollm","cbCaij2DGqZiU1Fe","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaij2DGqZiU1Fe","pdf",228269,"English","# Executive Summary: Bridging the Gap\n## Purpose and Funding\n## Two California Partnerships (Long Beach and Salinas Valley)\n## Five Principles of Practice\n## Further Reading in the Bridging the Gap Series","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of Bridging the Gap (BtG)?\",\"answer\":\"BtG supports successful student transitions from high school to postsecondary through cross-system education partnerships.\"},{\"question\":\"Which student groups does BtG prioritize?\",\"answer\":\"BtG prioritizes first-generation college students, students of color, and low-income students who face substantial barriers to meeting educational goals.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the five principles of practice identified in the report?\",\"answer\":\"The principles are: center students and equity implications; share and use data; engage and support leaders at top and middle levels; work across institutions to improve connections; and work within each institution to institutionalize and sustain the work.\"}]","Bridging the Gap - Executive Summary - July 2019 | PDF",1792047554]
