In an effort to improve a post-secondary-going culture, the BGCMC has agreed to fund the PeerForward program in Martin County in addition to paying a $4,500 advisor stipend at each of our three comprehensive high schools and a $500 PeerLeader stipend to each of the student leaders (8 per high school). Student leaders will be trained on how to lead peers to identify a plan for after high school, and the steps it takes to get there. Peer Leaders will be trained in specific metric identification and will utilize a monitoring software (with the support of the advisor) to set and measure realistic goals for their respective school site. The main objective is to capture the current percent of seniors who have not identified a plan for life after graduation and to support those students through the PeerForward program. With the support of the BGCMC, PeerForward will unleash the power of the most influential high school students to help bolster a schoolwide post-secondary culture so all students will graduate college & career prepared.

At this time, investigations are done on paper and stored in the District's Professional Standard's drive via individual claim file. A much more secure and robust program is needed for Employee Relations for an agile system that will allow staff to document any type of concern in a fast and easy workflow. Investigations will have workflow provided to add additional investigators or legal advisors (with the addition of Safety and Security we will have options for other investigators to work simultaneously). HRAcuity has robust data and analytics to be able to gather case data, provide custom reporting, and use dashboards to give users access to data that is accurate and up-to-date. The platform provides "Speakfully" a configurable intake for employees to submit issues or requests to professional standards. This platform provides a structured approach for the investigation team utilizing industry standards and best practices. It also includes Title IX reporting, review, and action as well as ADA reporting to capture doctors' notes and ensure each case is actioned. This data-driven approach helps identify trends and recurring issues, allowing organizations to take proactive measures to mitigate potential risks before they escalate. o Risk Assessment: By categorizing and analyzing employee relations cases, HR Acuity can help organizations identify areas of higher risk. This enables HR teams to allocate resources more strategically to address potential issues that could have a larger impact on the organization's reputation and bottom line. o Documentation and Accountability: The platform ensures that all interactions, investigations, and actions are thoroughly documented. This documentation can be valuable in demonstrating a commitment to addressing workplace issues properly, which can be crucial in legal and compliance matters. o Training and Education: HR Acuity provides resources and training to HR professionals on best practices in handling employee relations matters. Better-trained HR teams are more equipped to identify, address, and prevent issues that could lead to potential risks. o Reduced Response Times: The platform's automation and workflow features can speed up the process of conducting investigations and resolving issues. This reduces the time it takes to address potential risks and minimizes the window for those risks to escalate. Neighboring Districts are also utilizing this program, both Palm Beach County School District and most recently St. Lucie County School District (piggybacking the same solicitation) have begun using this HR Technology Platform to securely house, track cases and compliance and as well as provide robust data analytics to be able to ensure streamlined Professional Standards investigations. The P. O. for this service is included in this Board Agenda and will be in Purchasing Agenda item approvals.

Martin County School District has been awarded this competitive grant during the 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 school years. This will be our third year applying for these funds, and our project is designed to expand the work already accomplished through our "Ignite the Enterprise" project. This year's grant application sets out to expand the teaching and learning of entrepreneurial mind and skill sets across the entire Jensen Beach High School campus as well as JBHS feeder pattern schools, in addition to building opportunities for entrepreneurial opportunities across our CTE curriculum district-wide. Our goal for these funds is to continue to ignite and cultivate entrepreneurial mindsets and entrepreneurial capabilities. The grant includes the purchase of Entrepreneurship Across the Curriculum, unChartered Learning programs, field trips, travel, and equipment and supplies to design, create, and market prototypes. Martin County School District submitted the draft project application to the DOE, pending board approval, as the announcement of the grant and deadline for submission was outside of our Board meeting deadlines. If awarded, these funds will be used to expand the Ignite the Enterprise project into more areas, with a culminating "Pitch Event" with Business Development, the Council of Chambers, and other industry partner collaborations.

At the high school level, this translates into every student graduating on time with their cohort AND being college/career ready and capable. As a collaborative partner in helping MCSD achieve this mission, the Boys & Girls Club of Martin County launched the PeerForward program at Jensen Beach High School, Martin County High School, and South Fork High School. This peer-to-peer approach brings awareness to higher education and post-secondary opportunities which transform the lives of our young people by connecting them to people who can help them navigate the essential steps for success in post-secondary endeavors. PeerForward unleashes the power of positive peer persuasion to boost post-secondary preparation, enrollment, and sustained success. PeerLeaders mobilize friends and classmates to realize their true college and career potential. Students from JBHS, MCHS, and SFHS who attended PeerForward's summer workshop at Cal State Los Angeles this summer will present to the school board. These PeerLeaders are energized and empowered to help their fellow students establish and reach their post-secondary goals. Our PeerLeaders and PeerAdvisors are committed to fostering a school culture where every student becomes a graduate and is ready for life after high school. The student-created presentation can be viewed here . PeerForward builds a peer-led-path to higher education and careers.
