Detroit Public Schools Bond Proposal CRC Memorandum No. 1095 A publication of the Citizens Research Council of Michigan October 2009 DETROIT BALLOT ISSUES PROPOSAL S: DETROIT PUBLIC SCHOOLS BOND PROPOSAL On November 3, 2009, electors in Detroit will vote on nancial manager of DPS. The federal American Recov- Proposal S, which would allow Detroit Public Schools ery and Reinvestment Tax Act of 2009 would reduce (DPS) to borrow $500.5 million. Proposal S is a bond the borrowing costs of these bonds to taxpayers by referendum placed on the ballot by the emergency fi- lowering the interest costs. Bond Proposal Shall the School District of the City of Detroit, County of Wayne, Michigan, borrow the principal sum of not to exceed Five Hundred Million Five Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars ($500,540,000) and issue its unlimited tax general obligation bonds for the purpose of defraying the costs of: • Constructing new replacement buildings and/or additions to existing buildings; • Remodeling existing buildings, including energy conservation, safety and security improvements; • Acquiring, improving and developing sites, including playgrounds, playfields and outdoor athletic facilities in the School District; • Furnishing, refurnishing, equipping and reequipping School District buildings; and • Acquiring and installing instructional technology equipment in and connecting School District buildings? Yes __ No __ The estimated millage to be levied in 2010 to service this issue of bonds is 3.82 mills ($3.82 per $1,000 of taxable value) and the estimated simple annual average millage rate required to retire the bonds of this issue is 2.56 mills ($2.56 per $1,000 of taxable value). The debt millage levy required to retire all bonds of the School District currently outstanding and proposed by this ballot proposal is currently estimated to remain at or below 13.0 mills. The bonds may be issued in multiple series, payable in the case of each series in not to exceed thirty (30) years from the date of issue of each series. If the School District borrows from the State to pay debt service on the bonds of this issue, the School District may be required to continue to levy mills beyond the term of the bonds to repay the State. (Under State law, bond proceeds may not be used to pay teacher or administrator salaries, routine maintenance or repair costs or other School District operating expenses.)

    Snapshot of U.S. Department of Education Office of Safe and Healthy Students (OSHS) Safe and Supportive Schools (S3) Grant to Michigan Department of Education TOTAL AMOUNT AWARDED TO MICHIGAN (2010-2014): $5,997,018 MI S3 PROGRAM SUMMARY The Michigan Safe and Supportive Schools (MI S3) grant primarily sought to improve staff and student wellness and reduce high rates of drug- and violence-related behavior in 22 schools across 21 school districts. MI S3 worked with participating districts and schools to help them collect and interpret annual survey, discipline, incident, and administrative data to choose and implement interventions for each school’s specific population and need. The MI S3 grant placed a unique focus on staff and student wellness efforts to improve school climate and student outcomes. Grant activities also paid special attention to improving school safety in Michigan’s high-need schools, particularly through empowering “meaningful student involvement” at youth engagement conferences and promoting restorative justice practices that yielded increased instructional contact time. MI S3 also successfully engaged other State education offices in efforts to make school climate and culture a priority for school improvement. GOAL OF THE SAFE AND SUPPORTIVE SCHOOLS PROGRAM S3 grantees reported annually on the number of participating schools with: • A decreased percentage of students who reported alcohol use in the past 30 days; • A decreased percentage of students who reported harassment or bullying on school property; • Improvement of school safety scores (as defined by each grantee); and • A decrease in the number of suspensions for violence without injury. These measures were defined by the Department of Education to fulfill the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) which requires federal grantees to track and report their progress.

DESCRIPTORS Academic Achievement; Attitude Change; *Dropout Prevention; *Grade 9; *High School Students; High Schools; Principals; Program Evaluation; Public Schools; *School Restructuring; Tables (Data); Teacher Attitudes; *Teachers; Teaching Methods; *Urban Schools; Urban Youth IDENTIFIERS *Detroit Public Schools MI ABSTRACT The Ninth Grade Restructuring Program of the Detroit (Michigan) public schools was designed to restructure the ninth grade in ways that improve academic performance, develop positive attitudes toward learning, improve the school environment, reduce the dropout rate, and increase the graduation rate of students. Features of the program were instructional and direct noninstructional services, such as social work services, counseling and psychological services, tutoring by student assistants with teacher supervision, and parent participation in instructional and noninstructional activities. This report presents findings from the second year evaluation in Area A of the Detroit schools. Six principals completed a survey, and 83% believed that the program boosted student achievement. Teachers (n=58) generally thought (77%) that the program raised student achievement. Seven ninth grade administrators who responded also generally thought that the program raised achievement. Teachers and both groups of administrators identified areas in which improvements could be made and recommended its continuation. Recommendations included: the fostering of a school-within-a-school environment; continuing block scheduling; continuing to create clusters of students; and continuing to sensitize teachers to the special needs of ninth graders.
