It was recommended that the retreat be scheduled in conjunction with the High School Drop Out Summit taking place on October 20th in Lansing.

Rotary Charities of Traverse City Joseph Sowmick Learn and Serve- Michigan School-based Grants Sagina w Chippewa Indian Paula VanDam gave background on the staff recommendations (see attached memo from Ms . VanDam dated June 27, 2008.) She explained that the MCSC offers three categories of program funding for the Learn and Serve-Michigan School-based grants- planning, imp lementation, and institutionali zation. The MCSC issued renewal guidelines for the 2008-09 program year and recei ved Tribe of Michigan Alphonso Swain Capitol Area Center for Independent Living Michael Thomas Sagmaw County Prosecuting Attorney Larry Williamson Comcast Cable Eileen Wilson-Oyelaran l(pJ~ t nA71'V'l r:nll~no �applications from 17 of the 18 eligible applicants. Detroit Renaissance High School requested an extension of it's planning grant due to delays caused by stafftumover. A one-year extension was granted. After MCSC review, staff recommends all 17 for funding. There was discussion around how to get Detroit Public Schools involved with service-learning. Commissioner Parker agreed to have a conversation with his contacts in the district to share information about service-learning. Sue Carnell is also on the DPS staff and would be good to pull into the conversations. Angelia Salas is developing a service-learning tool for addressing the high school dropout issue. She is working with Skillman Foundation and its Great Schools Initiative. Chairman Mulhern asked for a motion to support the staff recommendations for the Leam and ServeMichigan School-Based new planning grants and renewal funding for implementation and institutionalization grants. Commissioner Mawby moved to support the motion and Commissioner Niester seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously. Michigan's AmeriCorps Formula Funding Ms. VanDam explained that the MCSC received $2,630,074 for AmeriCorps formula funding. This was a reduction of $152,394 from last year. All 14 of the currently funded formula programs are eligible for renewal funding. Thirteen programs submitted proposals requesting more than $2.9 million. The Michigan Department of Agriculture decided not to reapply. Two programs, Michigan Primary Care Association and Habitat for Humanity, had difficulty fillin g th eir member slots this year. Therefore, staff is recommending a level equal to the number of slots that they were able to fill during this cunent year. The remaining programs were reduced an average of 5% of MSYs based on their FY07 allocation. The allocation cut due to reduced funds was as equitable as possible. The MCSC staff recommends renewal funding for the following applicants: B-H-K Child Development Board ($391,611), Boys & Girls Club of Benton Harbor ($131,306), Camp Fire USA West Michigan Council ($136, 174), Char-Em lSD ($113,500), Communities in Schools - Detroit ($313 , 125), Good Samaritan Ministries ($131 ,050), The Guidance Center ($217,227), Habitat for Humanity Michigan ($234,508), Huron Pines AmeriCorps ($130,901), Marquette Alger RESA ($149,268), Michigan Primary Care Association ($175,981), University of Michigan ($324,758), and Volunteer Muskegon! ($179 ,875). Chairman Mulhern asked for a motion to support the staff recommendations for AmeriCorps formula funding . Commissioner Parker moved to support the motion and Commissioner Mawby seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously . Chairman Mulhern suggested that the MCSC share the positive measurables from the programs with th e media. He suggested an "AmeriCorner" once a month in daily newspapers. Commissioner Mawby also recommended that the value of AmeriCorps members and the impact on their lives and communities needs to be shared with elected officials.

In the first three years the program will establish a mentoring program that will guide staff, administration and students through all elements of executing service-learning projects that meet local and global needs. Several community needs have already been identified and student project planning is underway. All three pilot projects will achieve a central goal of the school- a strengthened sense of belonging. After four years 100% of the K -12 bui Iding will be engaged in service-learning. Fitzgerald Public Schools Fitzgerald Public Schools' goal over the next six years will be to expand and develop a structured servicelearning program that will address core and non-core curriculum and provide an opportunity for students to experience service-learning at least one time in each school. Pilot activities will begin with a focus on a community food pantry. The district will also provide advanced level training in service-learning, provide networking opportunities for students and educators and create a long-term sustainable network and resources for service-learning. Montcalm Area Intermediate School District Montcalm Area Intermediate School District will implement service-learning throughout the county in each of the seven districts using the following goals for the 2008-2009 grant: 1) Increase teacher knowledge of servicelearning, authentic assessment and curriculum through professional development, 2) Increase student learning by integrating service-learning into core curriculum strands, 3) Institutionalize service-learning methodology into the school program to foster system change. More than 700 students will be engaged in the pilot year. Romulus Community Schools Romulus Community Schools is seeking a Learn and Serve- Michigan planning grant to create and enrich a service-learning program throughout the nine school buildings. With grant assistance and support from the MCSC, they will create a program that will tum service-learning into the thread that will be strung throughout the curriculum. After four years more than 4000 students will have participated in service-learning projects. Willow Run Community Schools As the Willow Run Community Schools begins to restructure and implement initiatives to counteract the factors that impeded student learning, the staff and administration have expressed a commitment to service-learning and the development of quality programs and services that effectively teach the content standards. Initially, the Willow Run Community Schools pilot will include three schools. The pilot project at the elementary level will focus on the environment while the middle school and high school projects will focus , respectively, on science and language arts/social studies curricula with the Community Based Vocational Instruction program also being utilized at the high school. Over the next three years, the program will be implemented in all district facilities. �IMPLEMENTATION The following schools/school districts are being recommended for implementation grants: Belding Area Schools The Belding Area School's service-learning program has been in development for seven years. With the help of grant funds from Learn and Serve - Michigan the district has been able to expand the knowledge of staff and is now working to help staff provide meaningful service projects to all grade levels at Belding Area Schools. In 2008-2009 grant year service-learning will to expand through the following goals: o Increase high quality professional development o Create grade level service-learning projects o Identification of roles for key personnel o Increase development of partnerships with local organizations o Increase networking time for educators The district's long term goals for this program are as follows: o A teacher champion/mentor in every building o A district wide service learning day o Service-learning incorporated into the curriculum and school improvement o A strong communication plan for service-learning o Strong on-going professional development Charlevoix Public Schools In 2008-2009, Charlevoix Public Schools will focus on building a sustainable service-learning program. The grant coordinator and curriculum teams will address school improvement goals by tying service-learning to state standards and benchmarks. The teams will address the goal for how service-learning can assist with high school redesign and supporting struggling students. They will continue training teachers on service-learning via professional development activities, core team meetings, and sharing of successes by pilot teachers during staff meetings. Training will continue to broaden at each level and more student voice will be sought via classroom teachers. The goals for service-learning will be connected to the new district wide strategic planning committee efforts. Chassell Township Schools The Chassell Township Schools' service-learning coordinator, district administration, and advisory board will work to increase service-learning in the district and take steps to sustain service-learning as a viable teaching model for their classrooms. Service-learning and Character Counts will be joined as an elective to support school improvement plans in the middle and elementary grades. They will also examine how service-learning can be used to prepare students for the workplace and continue to strengthen the connection to the community, especially through partnerships with Gogebic Community College and Michigan Tech Federal Credit Union. The program will seek additional participation in, and support for service-learning, through expanded professional development and public relations efforts. Grand Blanc Community School District The Grand Blanc Community School District is seeking funds to enhance their service-learning program that allows students and/or teachers to design service-learning activities around community needs based on their current studies. Allowing participants to design their own activity is an integral part of this initiative. Allowing students to take an active role in the design of their service-learning helps foster their sense of civic responsibility, empathy, higher-order thinking skills and problem solving skills. The coordinator plans �to use the program to help bridge the large socioeconomic gap that currently exists in the school district by giving students the opportunity to work together to solve shared community issues. The program will also provide the district a means to allow all students to achieve, and thereby elevate test scores in underperforming subgroubs. Inland Lakes Schools Inland Lakes Schools was awarded a Learn and Serve - Michigan planning grant in 2006. During the 20072008 school year, 12 service-learning projects were initiated by teachers- six more than originally projected. Additional program funding was provided by the local Kiwanis club and the Work Force Investment Act Youth Program. In 2008-2009 the focus of activity will be to work intensively with at least nine of the projects initiated this year, to improve and build projects based on the national service-learning standards. Approximately 300 students will participate. Projects that contribute to community revitalization will be encouraged. Kent Intermediate School District The Kent County Intermediate School District (KISD) supports instruction in the classroom and student achievement. The goal of their Learn and Serve- Michigan grant is to expand service-learning as an instructional methodology. Through this grant, KISD students will demonstrate academic and social skills while helping others at school and in the community. Students will demonstrate mastery in a core academic subject and develop employability skills. The program will be expanded by increasing the number of service-learning teachers and students, increasing the average number of student's hours in service-learning, providing professional development to showcase exemplary programs and to help schools build their own sustainability plans. Lake Orion Community Schools Lake Orion Community Schools continue to move from a "project-based" focus to a more integrated curricular approach. The program established an advisory board, created a new logo for the district and has spread the word about the program through PR materials and through the first annual "Spotlight on Service-Learning" held April 23rd. They have increased membership of students on the advisory board to increase student voice on issues and to make sure that there is continuity as students graduate. They will continue to provide servicelearning professional development to teachers and administrators and will seek ways to better integrate the training into district professional development plans. Onaway Area Community School For the 2008-2009 school year, Onaway Area Schools will build upon the successes of previous servicelearning experiences and partnerships, primarily focusing efforts on program expansion. There are four areas in which expansion is expected to occur. The first area of focus will be on building and increasing capacity and interest among staff members to develop and implement effective service-learning opportunities for students. Next, they will work to further engage students and community members in the various phases of programming. An additional area of focus will be to continue to nurture existing community partnerships, while fostering new relationships. Finally, it is their desire to deepen the role of service-learning in the school beyond the curriculum and into other areas, particularly school improvement initiatives . �Pennfield Schools Pennfield Schools has three goals for service-learning: o Improve student perfonnance and achievement through service-learning. o Help to develop and internalize the attitudes and perceptions of students and teachers regarding the personal and civic value of service-learning o Meet documented needs within the community To achieve these goals, Pennfield Schools will expand the magnitude and scope of its service-learning activities during the 2008-2009 school year. The components of expansion include: 1) build leadership capacity to support more and deeper service-learning activities; 2) expanding professional development activities in all buildings each semester; 3) sending teachers on site visits to observe operations in districts with thriving service-learning curricula; 4) expanding outreach from the district into the community to seek opportunities for collaboration with area citizens and businesses; 5) expanding the size and purpose of the Service-Learning Steering Committee; 6) reformulating some of the existing clubs and organizations within the district to integrate more service-learning activities within their purpose and operations, and; 7) augment the evaluation plan to include formative and summative elements that will allow for program improvement as well as articulating the outcomes and impact of service-learning in the district. Traverse City Area Public Schools In 2007-2008 the Traverse City Area Public Schools (TCAPS) piloted a Youth-to-Youth Initiative (Y2}j : Learning for Action which focused on a micro-finance service-learning program for middle school and high school students. This year, the program will be expanded to extend the delivery of service-learning curriculum into new grade levels, new content areas, and supports their multi-year strategy for establishing K-12 servicelearning integration with TCAPS' curriculum. They will provide tools and instructional strategies that link service to curriculum and help students to sucesssfully learn and apply concepts of financial literacy, stewardship of natural and financial resources, and global citizenship. YMCA Service-Learning Academy During their 2007-2008 pilot year the YMCA Service-Learning Academy key staff, including faculty from Eastern Michigan University and two master level instructors, lead staff in the development of projects that engaged all 1,112 students in service-learning. In 2008-2009 they will again engage all staff and students in service-learning and do greater outreach to more partners. Local match dollars will support staff travel for professional development and service-learning supplies. INSTITUTIONALIZATION The following schools are being recommended for institutionalization grants: CASMAN Alternative Academy At CASMAN Alternative Academy service-learning is not viewed as a separate part of education. The goal of this sixth year program is to continue using service-learning as a teaching methodology and to provide students with hands-on projects that promote academic achievement, positive relationships, appropriate social skills and student connectedness. In 2008 -2009 the administration will include service-learning in all core classes at each grade level , coordinate sequential service-learning projects across subjects, increase student roles at all stages of projects development, align service-learning with state benchmarks, develop partnerships and a balance of one time projects and other long term interdisciplinary projects. �Clarkston Community Schools In its final year of grant eligibility, Clarkston Community Schools will continue to build upon and improve the service-learning program. New school-wide projects at four of the schools enable teachers, parents, community and students to collaborate while serving. In 2008-2009 professional development will be refined as they build up on successful service-learning 101 and service-learning 201 workshops. Mini grants will be offered and teacher leadership will be enhanced. For the first time, Clarkston Junior High School will offer a service11 learning elective class and all 1i grade government classes will include a service-learning experience. This year nearly 3,000 students will be engaged in service-learning. Copper Country Intermediate School District The Copper Country Intermediate School District (CCISD) will continue to expand service-learning into its 13 constituent districts through professional development opportunities, support in planning projects and evaluation of teacher, student and partner feedback. Teachers will have the opportunity to participate in professional development experience that range from introductory to advanced sessions. The CCISD will partner with the Western Upper Peninsula Center for Science, Math and Environmental Education to implement the Lake Superior Stewardship Initiative funded by the Great Lakes Fisheries Trust. Additionally, steps to ensure sustainability will be a focus at the advisory board level. Lowell Area Schools Lowell Area Schools is implementing a plan that will integrate service-learning at multiple levels in each grade span, so students will have the opportunity to work with and serve people in the "real world" throughout their years in school. The key element in making this happen is continued planned and progressive training and support of teachers and administration, as well as businesses and organizations within the community. Marquette-Alger Regional Educational Service Agency Marquette-Alger Regional Educational Service Agency (MARESA) will expand professional development opportunities for teachers, administrators and other school staff by at least 50% this year. The program advisory board will continue to meet and guide MARESA staff in developing policy and supportive practices for the program. MARESA will emphasize the institutionalization of the program in local districts within their service area by encouraging them to adopt policies as well. Williamston Community Schools Pre-Kindergarten through 121h grade service-learning activities in Williamston Community Schools are purposefully designed to start with the curriculum standards at each grade level with links to real world problem solving. At the center of the service-learning curriculum is the belief that community service can be a tool to deliver curriculum that is rigorous and relevant but also helps students build relationships with their community. In 2008-2009, the district will finalize their system by working with local, state and national government leaders to provide civic involvement at the 11th grade level, thoroughly assessing their efforts in bringing about significant academic and social growth in students and publicizing efforts in presentations locally, regionally and nationally. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Michael went through the draft agenda for the MCSC Board Meeting scheduled for April 25, 2008. Executive Committee members did not have any changes . MCSC Commissioner Retreat It was discussed whether to hold the Commissioner Retreat in one day instead of two days. A one-day session would benefit Commissioners as everyone is very busy. Others shared that having the 2-day retreat gives Commissioners the opportunity to network with one another. Committee members agreed to continue with the 2-day retreat. �ServiceNation Ms. Michael gave background on ServiceNation. Alan Khazei , cofounder of City Year, and CEO of Be the Change, Inc., asked the Governor to serve on the leadership council for planning the 2008 National and Community Service Summit that TIME Magazine is convening in New York City on September 17-18. The Summit will engage more than 500 national leaders to endorse a bold and comprehensive plan for bringing national service to scale in the United States. If the Governor agrees to serve as a member of the Leadership Council, she will be the first Governor to commit. Ms. Michael would also like the MCSC to serve as an organizer. The MCSC's involvement would entail participating in conference calls and having a voice in drafting national service policy for a "Declaration of Service" to give Congress and Presidential candidates. The Committee agreed that a Commissioner along with Musette and Paula could represent the MCSC. The Executive Committee recommends the MCSC join the planning committee for ServiceNation Summit.

Chairman Mulhern would like the MCSC to contact Herman Miller next year for help with nominations in the corporate category as volunteerism is part of their corporate culture. It would be worthwhile to strengthen the pool of corporate nominations. National Conference on Volunteering and Service MCSC staff will attend the conference in Atlanta, GA in June. Commissioners will be asked if available to attend the conference. Chairman Mulhern recommends that the MCSC present at the national conference. Staff will explore this opportunity for the 2009 conference. Mentor Michigan Census The Mentor Michigan Wave V census numbers will be corrected to reflect Michigan only numbers. There were also a few programs who reported late so their numbers will be added.

Approximately 45 people replied to the survey sent out via Survey Monkey. Results showed that people want the public celebration, that it was important to have the winners meet the Govemor and/or have them on stage with the Govemor, and that it is also important to have individual recognition for winners and finalists. • • • • • • • The Committee agreed not to book a headliner for the 2008 event unless it is camped. The suggestion was to contact JeffDaniels. The headliner does not seem to attract attendees. The attendees come to support the wim1ers, finalists , and volunteerism in general. The Conunittee reconm1ends that we continue to have local talent perform at the event. The Committee asked staff to contact Rochelle Riley to see if she is interested in serving as our 2008 emcee. The Committee agreed to hold the 2008 event at the Fox Theater given that it holds the required numbers, and saves funds due to camped rental fees. Staff indicated the stage at the DIA is not wheelchair accessible from inside the theater and therefore not appropriate as a venue. The Committee asked staff to explore other areas of the state for future events. The Conunittee agreed that we should continue to have winner videos as they do a great job in telling the awesome stories ofthe winners. Commissioner Jackson offered to help promote the GSA event by interviewing each of the finalists during the week(s) leading up to the event, identifying the website and how to get tickets, and sharing the message of service and volunteerism. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Acheson Foundation Acheson Ventures Bernard Parker AmeriCorps Competitive Application Background The Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) has $10.87 million to support new AmeriCorps competitive grants for the 2008-09 program year. This low level of :('unds available for new programs is due to high numbers of expected continuations. At the advice and counsel of the MCSC Funding Committee, the MCSC did not run an open application process this year. However, we solicited applications from two Governor' s initiatives: the Campaign to End Homelessness and the Cities of Promise. The Corporation for Supportive Housing on behalf of the Campaign to End Homelessness, submitted an application.

In fact, Governor Granholm has had to cut $1 billion from the general fund in this year alone. However, she has consistently funded the MCSC with $1.2 million. In addition, the MCSC has leveraged priv,ate dollars to support Mentor Michigan, the Governor's Service Awards, and other programs that are Corporation priorities. Unfortunately, we have seen a decrease of $2.8 million since 2003 from the Corporation. o What advice can you give us to help us increase the funding we receive from the Corporation? • We want you to know how much we appreciate the funding made available for strategic initiatives but we feel that states have additional, unique needs and challenges. o How can the Corporation make flexible funding available to help states meet these unique needs? • The Tim e magazine cover story really demonstrates that national service and civic engagement are becoming part of mainstream America. We were happy that it called attention to the service platforms of the presidential candidates. o How do you think this type of publicity will impact the service platforms of presidential candidates? o How do you think the recommendations for elevating the visibility of the Corporation will play out? • In Michigan- and I'm sure in other states- the Commission is playing a critical role in the health and viability of the nonprofit and education communities. We would like to see the Corporation better utilize the skills and resources provided by state commissions. o What expanded role could commissions play within the Corporation? o How can state commissions better support the work of the Corporation? • We are thrilled that Michigan will continue to be represented on the Corporation' s Board of Directors - Julie Cummings is waiting for Senate confmnation. o How can we support her in this new role? � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The Michigan Community Service Commission and the local national service and volunteer programs we support are very grateful for your willingness to continue to use service programs to meet the needs of national, state and local priorities. We would like to take an opportunity to highlight a few of the aspects of the GIVE Act we strongly support. • We appreciate that you preserved the role of states in AmeriCorps funding distribution. We hope we can move towards an open competition that is more equitable for single state programs that are predominant in Michigan. • We are very pleased you chose to raise the education award for AmeriCorps members; we think this is long over due and is something AmeriCorps members and programs across the country can rally behind. • We appreciate that you removed the capacity building restriction on Learn and Serve formula funds. • We applaud placing a priority on innovation, sustainability, capacity building, and quality of Learn and Serve America programs. • We applaud the conm1ittee for setting up Subtitle J for Training and Technical Assistance, preserving a steady funding source for expanding the capacity in high need areas and allowing states to support the entire national service field, not just one program. On behalf of the Michigan Community Service Commission and the collaboration of service and volunteer programs we support, we thank you again for your willingness to tackle these important issues. Sincerely, �STATE OF MICHIGAN JENNIFER M .

Kellogg Foundation Mayor Brenda Lawrence City of Southfield Janet Lawson Ford Motor Company AmeriCorps and Learn and Serve - America-two important and effective national service programs managed by the Corporation for National and Community Service and administered locally by the Michigan Community Service Commission- need your support around appropriations and reauthorization to ensure the constancy of these programs .

Acheson Foundation Acheson Ventures Kari Pardoe The LEAGUE Michigan Bernard Parker Wayne County Commissioner Jerry Seese Saginaw Township Community Schools Marsha Smith Rotary Charities of Traverse City Joseph Sowmick Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe of Michigan Alphonso Swain Capitol Area Center lor Independent Uving Michael Thomas Saginaw County Prosecuting Attorney Shaun VanHorn Law Student The Senate is recommending $804.4 million and the House is recommending $768 .9 million. We encourage you to support, and ask your colleagues to support- at least- the Senate ' s recommendation. To have the most positive impact on Michigan commun ities, we encourage you to support funding increases that will bring allocations in line with 2004 funding levels of$935.4 million. The GIVE Act has been proposed to reauthorize the functions of the Corporation for National and Community Service and its programs which include AmeriCorps and Learn and Serve - America. Please support this reauthorization, which has been proposed by a great supporter of national service, Congressman George Miller (D-CA). We understand that the fiscal environment is extremely challenging, but this is not the time to cut funding for programs that serve the neediest. in our communities. Our programs represent prudent and cost-effective investments in citizens who are helping to meet community needs. In 2006 alone, the outcomes are impressive: • The 891 Michigan ' s AmeriCorps Members mentored and tutored disadvantaged children, recruited volunteers, protected our environment, built affordable housing, and prepared for and responded to disasters. • In addition to the 700,000 hours of service AmeriCorps members gave, members recruited more than 25 ,000 volunteers whose service is valued at more than $2.9 milli on. Kenneth Whipple CMS Energy Larry Williamson Comcast Cable Eileen Wilson-Oyelaran Kalamazoo College Kathy Young-Welch Welch Group • The 51 ,000 Learn and Serve- Michigan students served more than 1 million hours. These projects connected service meeting critical community needs with classroom learning in science, math, social studies, language arts, and more. �• The $6.8 million federal dollars Michigan granted to fund AmeriCorps and Learn and Serve programs, leveraged $5.3 million in matching funds from local communities. As negotiations continue on the Labor HHS appropriations and reauthorization of CNCS, we urge you to support robust national service funding and the reauthorization.
