  6. Phase 2: external, mass mediaJanuary 2005 launch

  7. Phase 1 goals Raise awareness Get all RT members on same page Build shared knowledge base Build network of key communicators: RT members and “grasstops” Begin local implementation

  10. Key messages/themes “We must act now (urgency)” “We can do it (build on gains).” “These changes will benefit me.”

  11. An integrated approach Before Elementary School Middle School High School Post Secondary Pre-K After Elementary School Middle School High School Post Secondary Pre-K

  12. Key messages/themes-2 Our best hope for developing a well-educated workforce that keeps our economy prosperous and our communities strong. Ensuring that all Indiana students have the knowledge and skills to succeed in the 21st century economy.

  13. Key messages/themes-3 Providing future generations with real opportunities to earn a living. Learning after high school is a necessity, not an option.

  14. Key messages/themes-4 We’re building on a stronger foundation: • Strong K-12 standards, accountability • From 40th to 17th in U.S. college-going rate • ISTEP+, SAT, NAEP scores up • Improved dropout reporting • Core 40 required • Education Roundtable’s bipartisan consensus

  15. Key messages/themes-5 Hoosiers support this agenda: • 81% favor mandatory kindergarten • 60% favor 8th grade Algebra • Two-thirds* favor Core 40 • About two-thirds* say standards have helped improve schools some or a lot • Over half* think ISTEP+ has improved schools some or a lot • More than 7 in 10 think ISTEP+ holds schools accountable for achievement * Of those who’ve heard of standards or ISTEP+

  16. Key messages/themes-6 Indiana: The Learning State, not just the Hoosier state We need to start treating PK, ES, MS, HS and college as levels of a total learning system, not separate parts If you learn, you can earn. If you don’t you can’t. It’s that simple.

  17. Of every 100 Indiana 9th graders… 68 graduate from high school 41 enter college About 40% of these college freshman need remediation 31 are still enrolled as sophomores 21 graduate within 6 years

  18. Why this matters Students who graduate from college are likely to earn $1 million more over their careers If only 10,000 more students earned a degree a year, $250 million would be added to our economy Every $1 invested in high-quality early education saves $7.16 in welfare, crime, ed costs

  19. Phase 1 priorities Now to October 2004: • General brochure • Media kit and outreach • Conference presentations • RT member Web sites, listservs, publications • Stakeholder meetings • Cabinet coordination • Reinvent ICPAC (I-Learn) • Media and message training for RT organizations
