It is estimated that 80% of the youth will fall into this category. Weld County Summer Youth Employment and Training Plan Page 3 2. SYETP Goals and Objectives The goals and objectives for the SYETP are: a. to have 85% of the total number of in-school youth return to school in the Fall of 1990 as measured by a JTPA follow-up survey. b. to have 90% of the youth participating in the work experience component enhance their level of employability skills as measured by a Youth Participation Questionnaire and a Work Site Questionnaire. c. to have 90% of the youth participating in the remediation component as measured by attainment of school credit, completion of grade level in the learning lab, or successfull completion of other classes. d. to have 75% of the youth participating in the employability skills classroom activities increase their knowledge base as measured by an evaluation of the instructor. e. to enhance the level of coordination with local education agencies, law enforcement agencies, and other community services organizations by receiving positive feedback from 75% of the participating organizations as measured through a Site Coordination survey. f. To have 85% of the youth who choose not to return to school make the transition from the subsidized Summer Youth Employment Training Program to unsubsidized employment, as measured by the JTPA Termination Report. 3. Assessment Assessment of reading and math skills will be completed by one of the following methods: . Job Corp Reading Test . Adult Basic Literacy Assessment . Results of the Comprehensive Testing Basic Skills. . Final report card -- If this method is used, schools will be asked if the youth's skills are comparable to the grade level of the youth . A statement from the school identifying the youth' s grade level and the school ' s assessment of benefits from remediation activities . District Objective Test . Other tests or methods the schools use to determine the grade level of youth in math and reading . Aims Community College testing for GED in English, reading, and Weld County Summer Youth Employment and Training Plan Page 4 math for high school dropouts . For those youth who have graduated from high school , the final report card will be requested. If they have obtained reading and math credit, further assessment will not be needed C. Program Design 1 . Basic Education a. Assessment and Plan of Action to Improve Skills in Deficiency Areas Each youth will be assessed through one of the means discussed in section B. 3. The assessment results will become part of the permanent record. It is anticipated that 42% or 117 youth will participate in a remediation activity. The remediation activities have been designed to be flexible and individualized. The assisted instruction through the computer lab and general instruction provide for pre- and post-testing to determine the level of skills the youth needs to master remedial activities. The instructors will be responsible for pre-testing to determine the specific remediation deficiency areas that need to be address with the youth during remediation. These deficiency areas will then be addressed through either computer-assisted instruction or teacher directed instruction, or both. The youth who attend summer school , or are pursuing a GED, will be attending classes to up-grade in their deficiency areas. b. School Credit School credit will be provided through School District 6 for those youth who attend summer school or the Youth Opportunity Unlimited Project (Y.O.U. ) . The School District determines the number of hours necessary to grant school credit. Summer school is usually 8 weeks in length, 16 hours per week. The Y.O.U. Project is 8 weeks in length and approximately 10 hours per week are on remediation. c. Incentives to Motivate Youth to Participate in Remediation Youth who are identified by a school district to attend summer school for credit or remediation will be required to attend school or participate in remediation as a prerequisite for summer employment. Youth who attend remediation activities and achieve expected outcomes will receive a bonus. Youth will receive $4.00 per hour for each hour of lab participation, and an additional $25.00 for each grade level mastered. Youth will receive a bonus Weld County Sumner Youth Employment and Training Plan Page 5 of $100.00 for successful program completion in School District Sumner School or successful completion in Y.O.U, or other designated programs. d. Youth in Remediation Who Test Two Grade Levels Below Youth that test two or more grade levels below their actual school level will be required to attend remedial classes in conjunction with their summer work except those youth who live in the rural areas where transportation is not available. It is not anticipated that many rural youth will need remediation as their academic achievement is normally standard. Exceptions will be documented in the youth' s file. e. Participants and Locations The Weld County SDA will have various approaches to deliver remediation. These approaches are as follows: 1) School District 6 operates a summer school program. Those youth who will participate in the Summer Youth Employment and Training Program and are selected by School District 6 as in need of summer school will be required to attend summer school . The youth will receive academic credit for successful completion. Approximately 15 youth will attend summer school at $60.00 tuition for each youth. 2) Classroom activity will occur in two areas: a) One class will be offered at Fort Lupton High School , 301 Reynolds Street, Fort Lupton. Approximately 15 youth will participate in the Fort Lupton class. These classes will be eight weeks in length and will be held one day per week for three hours. Youth will receive remediation in either math, reading or both. General instruction as well as individualized-instruction methods will be used. Classroom pre- and post-testing will be initiated by the instructor to determine how well the youth mastered the specific topic. b) Remediation classes will occur at Employment Services of Weld County, 1551 North 17th Avenue, Greeley. The Jostins Learning System computerized-instruction will be used to supplement teacher-directed instruction in math and English. Approximately 80 youth will participate at the lab. The lab will be available from June 1 , 1991 through August 30, 1991 , for youth to participate in remediation lab activities. Youth will be encouraged to participate for a minimum of 20 hours during the summer. The amount of the Weld County Summer Youth Employment and Training Plan Page 6 bonus a youth can earn is based on the number of hours of lab time by $4.00 per hour. c) Youth who do not have a GED or high school diploma will be encouraged to attend a GED program at Aims Community College. Approximately 4 youth will work toward a GED. Additional remediation activities may occur depending upon need. d) There will be 3 youth receiving remediation through the Youth Opportunity Unlimited Program. There are no additional remediation costs. The SDA will be using Summer Youth Employment and Training training funds to purchase services from instructors, pay tuition, provide supplies, etc. The cost for the remediation activities is estimated at $20,500 for approximately 117 participants for an average of $279.00 cost per participant. The cost for the 5 youth receiving remediation through the Youth Opportunity Unlimited Program is included in Special Projects (Section D) . f. Student/Teacher Ratio It is anticipated that the student/teacher ratio will not exceed 15 to 1 for most remediation activities. However, School District 6 determines the student/teacher ratio for their summer school . Each instructor determines the delivery of their instruction, coordination with similar programs in the community, and use of volunteers in the classroom. 2. Work Experience a. Work Experience Operations Youth who participate in work experience will be exposed to various occupations, learn basic work skills, receive encouragement to continue their education, earn money, and develop career goals and objectives . Work experience activities will occur in public or private non-profit agencies. The type of work experience offered to the youth will include custodian, grounds maintenance, teacher aide, clerical , reception, maintenance, library aide, etc. The Weld County SDA requires that the youth's participation in the program realistically reflect how a youth would be expected to behave in unsubsidized employment. Therefore, there are strict requirements about reporting to work on time, attendance, behavior at work, etc. If youth do not participate according to the requirements , they are terminated from the program. Weld County Summer Youth Employment and Training Plan Page 7 b. Competencies The Weld County SDA will not be implementing a competencu program during the Summer Youth Employment and Training Program. Competencies are not being used for the following reasons: 1 ) The Weld County SDA designed the competency component under Title II-A for activities directed toward in-school youth. The competency component has not been designed for work experience activities. 2) The remediation activities provided under Title II-B are not sufficient in length or depth to provide the youth with a PIC certified competency at the end of remediation activities. 3) The major objective of the Weld County SDA for the Summer Youth Employment and Training Program is to encourage youth to remain in school or return to school . Youth who successfully complete the work experience activities and return to school are terminated from the program as "returned to school ." Other youth are terminated in appropriate categories. 4) In certifying competency achievement of a youth for summer activities , this will restrict activities that can be provided to the youth during the Title II-A In-School activities. c. Pre and Post-Test Pre and post-tests are given in the Title II-A Competency Program and are located in the youth's files. d. Bonus Payments The Weld County SDA will not be providing bonus payments to youth through a competency designed system. As outlined previously, youth will receive a bonus based on program completion and participation. 3. Employability Development Plan Employability Development Plans will be completed for those youth have have no plans to return to school and whose goal for the program is employment. If a youth is either transferred or co-enrolled in Title II-A, the EDP will be maintained in their Title II-A file. 4. Coordination a. Coordination with other Appropriate Education Systems The Jostens Learning System located at Employment Services of Weld County will be used for remediation activities. Weld County Summer Youth Employment and Training Plan Page 8 b. Coordination with Agencies 1) Local Educational Agencies The local educational agencies will assist in determining which youth should participate in the remediation activity. It is anticipated that the priority will be youth who need the academic credit for graduation requirements or who are at least a grade level behind in math or reading. If the Weld County SDA selects youth for remediation, priority will be given to those youth whose assessments indicate that they would benefit from some remediation activity. The assessment factors include low grades, low test scores , etc. Youth who do not have a GED will be encouraged to enter a GED program at Aims Community College. 2) Youth Serving Agencies The Weld County SDA implements extensive coordination between the Summer Youth Program and Youth Serving Agencies during the summer. The Juvenile Court System provides outreach and referrals to the program and the eligible youth are encouraged to participate in the programs by the Juvenile Courts System staff. Other Youth Serving Agencies may participate as a work site and also as an outreach tool . 4. Other a. Supportive Services The supportive services to be provided were discussed in Section A,3,4 on page 2. b. Planned Participation and Termination Summary The Planned Participation and Termination Summary is located as Attachment 1 . D. Special Projects The Weld County SDA plans to enroll approximately 3 youth in the Youth Opportunity Unlimited Program. The cost per participant for program support will be $1 ,930.00. These youth will also receive remediation activities as discussed in Section C,1,a. E. Special Populations By priority, the target eligible population groups are: 1 . youth who are receiving welfare 2. youth who are members of a household receiving welfare 3. youth who are in school and are returning to school 4. youth who are dropouts Weld County Summer Youth Employment and Training Plan Page 9 F. Coordination with Summer Job Hunt The Weld County SDA also performs the functions of the Job Service of Colorado for Weld County. The Summer Job Hunt is an activity that is administered by the Weld County SDA as a Job Service office. Due to its single delivery system, it is able to extensively coordinate and plan between the Summer Youth Employment and Training Program and Summer Job Hunt programs. As in the past, all youth who are not eligible for the Summer Youth Employment and Training Program will be referred to the Summer Job Hunt activities. The funds provided by the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment from 10% Wagner Peyser funds will be used to assist in the provision of the following: 1 . Reception services will be available for young people coming into the the Weld County SDA office and seeking employment under the auspices of the Summer Job Hunt. 2. The Weld County SDA as a Job Service will accept and help applicants in completing employment applications under the auspices of the Summer Job Hunt. 3.
