  • Pittsburgh, PA Previous GTCA City 2013
    Pittsburgh, PA Previous GTCA City 2013 Contact: Tom Piccone ([email protected]); Andy Wang ([email protected]) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ The Church of God in Pittsburgh The Church of God in Pittsburgh was originally established as the Church in Pittsburgh in 1983, primarily through a migration of saints mainly from Ohio. Some years after a turmoil, the Church of God in Pittsburgh was incorporated in 2017. The church does not presently have a meeting hall, but meets on university campuses and in various saints’ homes. Approximately 40 currently gather on Lord’s Day mornings, including four children. The racial composition of the church is 59% Chinese and 16% Caucasian, with the remaining 25% a mix of Korean, Vietnamese, Black, and Indian. The current church life in Pittsburgh focuses primarily on campus work at the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), though the need to gain more families is of equal priority (and not necessarily separate). Each year, the Lord adds remaining fruit to His Body through the saints’ labor on the campuses to gain college and graduate students, and sometimes university staff. In the past 12 years of campus work, dozens have been gained, but most have moved away. Only a handful of them have not been Asian. While the saints in Pittsburgh welcome all who would like to move here, we particularly see a need for young American families to migrate to the Pittsburgh area in order to share the burden of shepherding and gaining some from the population of American students and families for the strengthening of His testimony in this locality and region.

The strategic plan outlines four long-term outcomes for student proficiency, including the elimination of racial disparity in achievement levels of African American students. The plan also has four strategic themes and 18 initiatives to achieve established District goals. As the Superintendent and his leadership team evaluated the work completed between May 2017 and January 2018, there was a determination to strategically and thoughtfully build upon the work of the District’s Strategic Plan and lesson’s learned since 2016, to begin the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) comprehensive planning process. Over the course of a six-month period, Superintendent Hamlet convened a working group that included District staff, parents and representatives from local universities and the philanthropic community. In partnership with the National Institute of School Leadership (NISL), working group members learned the nine building blocks for a world class education system by studying high-performing countries and educational systems within the United States. The District used the knowledge and skills of the working group to conduct research and planning on three areas required by the PDE District Improvement Planning process.

  • Pittsburgh School Closures: the Impact on Physical and Social Neighborhood Dynamics
    Pittsburgh School Closures: The Impact on Physical and Social Neighborhood Dynamics Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree Master of Science in Urban Planning Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation Columbia University May 2014 Emily Gordon Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge several people who helped make this thesis possible. First I would like to thank my advisor, Professor Clara Irazabal for her guidance, feedback and thoughtful suggestions. I would also like to thank my reader, Professor Stacey Sutton for her feedback and insight. I am extremely greatful to the Drexler family for taking an interest in my research and sharing their knowledge and love of Pittsburgh. Thank you to AJ for taking the time to visit neighborhoods with me, Steve for editing my first draft, and to Garret for always listenting and encouraging me to do my best. Thank you to my loving parents for supporting me in all of my endeavors. This thesis would not have been possible without help from my toughtful peers at GSAPP, who provided feedback, kind words and were always willing to help. Abstract School closures can have enormous effects on students and families living in a neighborhood. School districts in many urban areas in the United States have recently been faced with the challenge of how to deal with a shrinking school-aged population, budget crises, aging facilities and poor academic performance. This has led some districts to close large numbers of school buildings. A prime example occurred in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 2006. This re- search will examine changes in population count, racial composition, and housing characteristics in three affected neighborhoods of Pittsburgh following the decision by the Pittsburgh Board of Education to close 22 schools that year.

Bellefield Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15213 2 District Profile Demographics 341 S Bellefield Ave Pittsburgh, PA 15213 (412) 622-3500 Superintendent: Linda Lane Director of Special Education: Donna Westbrooks Martin Planning Process Throughout 2012, the senior leadership team of the Pittsburgh Public Schools reviewed the PDE planning requirements and the overall state of the district. From those discussions, it became clear that the district needed to embark on an extensive process to develop a strategic plan for the next several years. This need was driven by two major challenges. First, our academic progress had faltered well below acceptable levels and we still had significant racial achievement disparities. Second, our financial projections forecast a large chronic budget deficit facing the district in a few years, significantly driven by an escalation in pension costs. Addressing these problems simultaneously required a robust plan development process. Accordingly, the Superintendent, Dr. Linda Lane, with the support of the Board of Directors, began our "Envisioning" process. The plan development process was led internally by the Executive Director of Strategic Priorities with extensive leadership input and guidance from senior cabinet members, including the Deputy Superintendent, Chief Academic Officer, Chief of Human Resources, and Chief Operations Officer, among others. The process was also supported with external expertise provided by FSG and Bellwether Education Partners. The resulting plan, Whole Child, Whole Community: Building a Bridge to the Pittsburgh Promise was released to the community in December of 2013.
