  • Pittsburgh Public Schools Assignment

    Pittsburgh Public Schools Assignment

    Pittsburgh Public Schools Assignment Jennifer Cai John Cusick Anuj Desai Zhenzhen Weng 21-393: OR II December 2014 Introduction Public schools are crucial players in the development of youth, providing equal access to educational opportunities and preparing them to be responsible citizens. 90% of school students in the United States attend public schools. There are approximately 3.1 million teachers and 49.8 million students in public schools as of fall 2014; giving an average student-to-teacher ratio of 16.1. Countless studies have shown that students learn more effectively in smaller classes. Barriers to education exist in the form of transportation. Attendance is one of the most important factors determining a child's academic achievement. Poor school performance and higher dropout rates are correlated with absenteeism. Getting to school is difficult when students do not have reliable transportation options. In addition, if a child is not eligible for school-provided transportation and has to walk to school, the route to school may be hazardous, especially for younger children. Pittsburgh Public Schools, the public school district of Pittsburgh, is the largest school district in Allegheny County and the second largest in the state of Pennsylvania. Currently 54 schools serve approximately 25,000 students in Kindergarten through Grade 12. The average student-teacher ratio for academic year 2011-2012 was 17.4. Elementary school students who live more than 1.5 miles from their schools are provided with bus transportation from the Transportation Department. Left: Map of Pittsburgh K-5 (orange) and K-8 (purple) public schools Right: Map of Pittsburgh neighborhoods In this report, we seek to assign students to schools that minimize the distance students are traveling to get to school to address some of these issues.
  • The Hazelwood Neighborhood, 2010

    The Hazelwood Neighborhood, 2010

    The Hazelwood Neighborhood, 2010 Photo Credit: RIDC PROGRAM IN URBAN AND REGIONAL ANALYSIS UNIVERSITY CENTER FOR SOCIAL AND URBAN RESEARCH UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH FEBRUARY 2012 www.ucsur.pitt.edu Executive Summary Hazelwood is a City of Pittsburgh neighborhood of 5,033 residents (2010 Census) located along the northern shore of the Monongahela River, approximately four miles from Downtown Pittsburgh. The neighborhood developed over 100 years ago, shaped by several steel and coke-making plants located in and around the community. In recent decades, Hazelwood has lost its manufacturing base, experienced population decline, physical abandonment, and weak demand for housing. This report presents information on the current condition of the Hazelwood community across a broad range of indicators. In this report, data for Hazelwood includes the combined totals for both the Hazelwood and Glen Hazel neighborhoods as defined by the City of Pittsburgh. Hazelwood had disproportionately smaller shares of young adults (ages 20-34), when compared to the City of Pittsburgh. While the combined population was majority-white, the community had a larger share of African American population when compared to Pittsburgh. Nearly one in three households in the two neighborhoods contained a person under age 18 compared to 1 in 5 in the City, and the majority of these households were female-headed, with no husband present. Compared to the City of Pittsburgh, households in Hazelwood had lower incomes, and residents (especially children) were more- likely to be poor. A number of indicators included in this report strongly suggest Hazelwood’s housing market suffers from a lack of demand. Prices are extremely low (sales under $10,000 are common), the pace of sales trails the City, and low levels of mortgage originations and falling homeownership rates suggest that much of the market activity is being driven by investors through cash transactions.

    Housing Authority of the City of Pittsburgh Moving to Work Demonstration Year 6 (FY 2006) Annual Plan May 2006 Resubmission Keith Kinard, Executive Director 200 Ross Street, 9 th Floor Pittsburgh, PA 15219. 1.0 OVERVIEW: T HE HOUSING AUTHORITY CITY OF PITTSBURGH MOVING TO WORK DEMONSTRATION 2005 INTRODUCTION ………………..………………...….…………………………………………………………………………………… 1 OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES PLANNED FOR FY 2006……………………………………………………………..….……………….. 2 Introduction – Fiscal Year (FY) 2006 will be another year of rapid and positive change for the Housing Authority City of Pittsburgh (HACP). During FY 2006, the HACP will continue the demolition of outmoded public housing units, construct new housing units, continue to plan the redevelopment of older HACP communities, make fundamental organizational improvements, expand homeownership opportunities for HACP residents and provide residents with expanded access to social services. Extension of the Moving to Work (MtW) Program In April 2005, the HACP requested and was granted an additional year (FY 2006) in the Moving to Work (MtW) program. The HACP is one of approximately 30 public housing authorities in the United States selected to participate in the MtW Program. MtW provides selected high-performing public housing authorities with additional regulatory flexibility to encourage creative approaches to providing improved housing and enhanced social services programs for public housing residents. The HACP’s 5-year MtW program was originally scheduled to end on December 31, 2005. The additional year in MtW granted to the HACP will allow the HACP to continue MtW innovations through FY 2006. These innovations allow the HACP a wider range of options in funding new construction and community redevelopment, the flexibility to restructure the HACP to be more efficient and more responsive to residents, and the ability to provide additional self-sufficiency and homeownership opportunities for HACP residents.

    (Revised 7-2009) This Tax Book Has Been Prepared for Accountants, Tax

    (Revised 7-2009) This tax book has been prepared for accountants, tax preparers, attorneys and individuals to provide a summary of all taxes levied by the City of Pittsburgh and the School District of Pittsburgh. These taxes are collected by the City-School Treasurer who is also responsible for the discovery and collection of delinquent taxes. There are two categories into which one could place Pittsburgh’s taxes. One is the assessed, the other is self- assessed. The table of contents on page 4 shows each tax by category. For the assessed taxes, the City will compute the tax due based on information provided by Allegheny County. For self-assessed taxes, the City provides forms to be completed by the taxpayer or tax preparer. Forms will not be mailed unless the taxpayer has been properly registered. Payment in full is required at the time the tax return is filed. Modern sources of data retrieval and exchange make the detection of tax delinquency and underpayment easier. In order to avoid penalty and interest charges, taxpayers, their tax preparers and consultants must know how and when to properly file City and School District tax returns. For additional information and assistance, refer to the listed phone number for each tax type or visit our website at www.city.pittsburgh.pa.us/finance. Tax forms, tax rates, Pittsburgh Code and zip code listings are all available on our website. GENERAL NOTES FOR SELF-ASSESSED TAXES It is the taxpayer’s responsibility to pay taxes when due. Failure to receive a form is never an excuse for a late payment.

    Social Services Activist Richard Garland Brings “Juice” to a New Program That Puts Ex-Cons on the Street to Stop Brutal Violence Before Lives Are Lost

    Social services activist Richard Garland brings “juice” to a new program that puts ex-cons on the street to stop brutal violence before lives are lost. By Jim Davidson Photography by Steve Mellon Adrienne Young offers a cherished image of her son, Javon, gunned down a decade ago in the last epidemic of street violence involving youth in Pittsburgh. Young went on to found Tree of Hope, a faith-based agency that serves families and children devastated by senseless killings. 13 The story is familiar now. A dispute over turf, money, girls, pride or next to nothing is replayed again and again on the streets of Pittsburgh — streets now marked with the ferocity, the violence, the tragedy that can bring down a neighborhood when young people have guns. ❖ Adrienne Young knows about it all too well. On a night just before Christmas 10 years ago, her 18-year-old son, Javon Thompson, an artist who had just finished his first semester at Carnegie Mellon University, was visiting a friend’s apartment in East Liberty. “He was successful. He had never done anything to anyone. He was an artist and writer — he was a great child,” Young says now. That night, Benjamin Wright, a robber dressed in gang colors, burst into the apartment and icily ordered Thompson to “say his last words.” Gunshots rang out, killing Thompson and wounding two others. Wright, who later confessed that he shot Thompson and robbed him for failing to show proper respect to his Bloods street gang, is serving a life sentence. ❖ But the carnage from the violence extends well beyond the victims and the shooter.

    Disclaimer: The numbers in the table below reflect cumulative counts of cases of COVID-19 that are part of an outbreak investigation at, or have the same residential address as a campus or facility that includes a licensed skilled nursing facility (SNF) and/or a personal care home (PCH). Many facilities offer different levels of care at the same location. For example, a rehab facility, skilled nursing facility, and assisted living may all be located on the same campus. From the data received by PA-NEDSS, it is usually not possible to determine which part of the facility the case is associated with. Thus, the case counts in the table may not correctly capture the number of cases within that specific licensed facility. It is also usually not possible from the PA-NEDSS data to determine where the case was when they were exposed or became symptomatic. The original intent of this table was to identify locations that may have cases associated with them and potentially need public health support. Staff numbers reflect cumulative counts of staff members who are a COVID-19 case who reported to a public health investigator that they worked at the facility or campus they are attributed to.

As a hub for interdisciplinary research and collaboration, UCSUR promotes a research agenda focused on the social, economic and health issues most relevant to our society. UCSUR maintains a permanent research infrastructure available to faculty and the community with the capacity to: (1) conduct all types of survey research, including complex web surveys; (2) carry out regional econometric modeling; (3) analyze qualitative data using state‐of‐the‐art computer methods, including web‐based studies; (4) obtain, format, and analyze spatial data; (5) acquire, manage, and analyze large secondary and administrative data sets including Census data; and (6) design and carry out descriptive, evaluation, and intervention studies. UCSUR plays a critical role in the development of new research projects through consultation with faculty investigators. The long‐term goals of UCSUR fall into three broad domains: (1) provide state‐of‐the‐art research and support services for investigators interested in interdisciplinary research in the behavioral, social, and clinical sciences; (2) develop nationally recognized research programs within the Center in a few selected areas; and (3) support the teaching mission of the University through graduate student, post‐ doctoral, and junior faculty mentoring, teaching courses on research methods in the social sciences, and providing research internships to undergraduate and graduate students.
