Founded in 1969, Philadelphia Academies Inc. has been using career development as a method of keeping students engaged and motivated for their futures.
A student at Thomas A. Edison High School, Williams’ high school career started with getting “caught up in the wrong crowd” and held back his sophomore year, to excelling at school and becoming the master of ceremonies his senior year.
Teachers work with PAI predominantly through the organization’s 9th Grade Success Network, through which they and administrative staff can examine student data using a grade-monitoring tool and detect warning signs for interventions. “Because we were able to drill down into the data and we were able to provide support, we use it to determine celebrations for our kids,” Stidmon-Frazier said. “It’s a very powerful tool to use.”According to PAI, on-track rates for 9th graders they work with improved by nearly five percentage points on average from the 2018-2019 school year to 2021-2022. And those gains were even higher among Black and Latino male students, at around a 10 percentage point increase.
