Hartford Foundation for Public Giving College Scholarship Recipients 1 Hartford Foundation College Scholarship Program Our scholarship funds were created by people and organizations of all types and from all across Greater Hartford. Their situations vary greatly. But they all share one motivation — to help students afford a college education. Because of these donors’ generosity, last year the Hartford Foundation awarded more than $1.1 million in support of college scholarships to nearly 600 traditional- aged students and adult learners at four-year and two-year colleges, as well as local community colleges. Most of the scholarships for traditional-aged students are renewable, enabling students to receive significant support for each of their years in college as long as they maintain a good academic record. Moreover, these funds are permanent endowments, which means that the Foundation will award scholarships to area students forever. There are three ways to make a substantial impact on area students through the Hartford Foundation: 1. With a sizeable gift you can create an Individual Scholarship Fund (like those listed in this brochure) and name specific selection criteria for your scholar. The Foundation can help you decide how to participate in reviewing, or nominating potential recipients. We will also handle scholarship distributions and renewal applications, and help you communicate with your scholar if you choose. 2. You can contribute any amount to the Hartford Foundation’s General Scholarship Endowment Fund. Contributions are invested in our broadly diversified portfolio and the Fund makes four-year scholarship awards – currently of $3,000 — for residents of Greater Hartford. 3. You can contribute any amount to the Community College Scholarship Endowment Fund. Contributions are invested in our broadly diversified portfolio and the Fund makes three-year scholarship awards of increasing amounts. Currently, the awards are for graduating high school seniors attending a community college in the fall after their graduation from high school. 2 Hartford Foundation for Public Giving College Scholarship Recipients New Scholarships Available for High School Students to Attend Community College High school students from the 29-town Greater Hartford region may be eligible for scholarships to community colleges, thanks to a new program created this year by the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving. To encourage Greater Hartford high school seniors to continue their education at community colleges — and advance job training opportunities — the Hartford Foundation Community College Scholarship Program will offer 45 scholarships over three years. The program will make awards to 15 students this year, adding 15 more students for each of the subsequent two years. As an incentive to complete an associate’s degree, the awards will increase for each of the three years, from $750 to $800 to $1,000. If the student completes community college in two years, the award for the third year will be available for the student to attend a four-year institution. Students must meet the following criteria: • Be a graduating high school senior who attends school in or lives in Greater Hartford • Be entering a community college within Greater Hartford with a minimum enrollment of six credits (two courses) • Have a financial need • Be a volunteer in the community, school, or involved in Community College Scholarship Program recipients pose with Nancy Woodward, Hartford Foundation for Public Giving senior donor other extracurricular activities (may include jobs). services officer (second from left), Lew Robinson, Hartford Recipients may be enrolled in either certificate or Foundation board chair, and Linda J. Kelly, Hartford Foundation associate’s degree programs, with preference given to president (third from right). students seeking associate’s degrees. The scholarship could also assist students needing remedial classes. “This new program is also designed to help students address two other key issues: completion and debt,” said Nancy M. Woodward, who directs the Hartford Foundation’s scholarship program. “Many students often have difficulty earning an associate’s degree because of financial challenges,” she said. “As an example, many students at two-year schools are leaving with high levels of debt and often no associate’s degree. This new program is designed to help ease some of that burden.” The new Community College Scholarship Program is part of a comprehensive scholarship program at the Hartford Foundation that last year awarded more than $1.1 million to nearly 600 local students at two-year and four-year colleges and universities both in Connecticut and nationwide.

  • The Prevalence and Impact of School Resource Officers in Connecticut Appendix A
    Policing Connecticut’s Hallways: The Prevalence and Impact of School Resource Officers in Connecticut Appendix A In this appendix, we describe in greater detail the statistical analyses and results used in our report. Data Sources The data used in this report come from three sources: the 2015-2016 and 2013-2014 United States Department of Education Office of Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC), the 2015-2016 school year reporting from the Connecticut State Department of Education data reporting tool “EdSight,”1 and District Reference Groups (DRG) designations that group school districts according to similar community characteristics and resources. We used the 2015 SDE DRG designations.2 Our data set included data from charter schools where possible, but we should note that charter schools are their own district so any analyses where we look at District Reference Groups do not include charter schools. The CRDC is a federally mandated reporting of school-level data regarding educational access for protected classes of students (gender, race/ethnicity, nationality, disability status, etc.). All public schools (PreK-12) in the country are required to report to the federal government on issues such as the use of exclusionary discipline, teacher experience, and enrollment in advanced courses. EdSight is a state repository of school-, state-, and district-level education data taken from all school districts in Connecticut. The authors of this paper acknowledge that the data in this study are now two years out of date. Because there is no central public reporting of the presence of SROs in CT, data on which schools employ SROs are most available and accessible through the CRDC website, but the last available year of data available through this data set is School Year (SY) 2015-2016.
