  1. Evaluating Wisconsin’s Safe and Supportive Schools Program • D. Paul Moberg, PhD • Daphne Kuo, PhD • University of Wisconsin-Madison • Population Health Institute • December 7, 2012

  2. Overview of S3 Evaluation Evaluation Goals • Identify areas of relative safety and support(student perceptions) in each participating school • Document improvement over time in seven areas of school safety and support, and in academic and behavioral outcomes • Identify, code and describe intervention strategies (including curriculum, programs, and policies) • Evaluate effectivenessof the program--explore the relationships between intervention strategies, student achievement, behaviors (suspension and expulsion rates), and school climate (including the seven dimensions of school safety scores).

  3. Evaluation Approach Useful--Support program decision-making, improvement and accountability (advice?) Evaluation Design • Change over time within S3 schools and in aggregate • Comparison high schools (available indicators-- suspension, expulsion, graduation, achievement test scores; oYRBS where available) • Complex statistical modeling—students nested in schools, controls for population characteristics; mediators and moderators; propensity scores

  4. Research Design

  5. Process Evaluation Process Measures • Annual Reports from S3 schools • Changes in school policy • School programs implemented • PBIS Implementation? Would like Input: • What data are available on implementation with minimal burden to school staff ? • Should annual report be supplemented with a survey?

  6. Outcome Data Measures: • DoE Required S3 Index—”School Safety Score” • oYRBS—S3 Module (annual over 4 years) • Student Achievement (test scores, graduation)* • Behavioral Outcomes: (Suspensions, expulsions, behavioral incidents)* *WINSS trends over 6 years (2 before S3 baseline) measured at the school level

  7. How do S3 Students compare to random sample of Wisconsin Students?

  8. Suspensions in S3 Schools

  9. Suspension Rates in S3 Schools

  10. oYRBS Data • Factor Analysis 7 Indices • violence • bullying and harassment • alcohol and drug use • rule and discipline enforcement • general climate and support • general safety • Caution—These are student self reported behaviors and perceptions

  15. Perceptions of Safe and Supportive School Environment 9th and 11th graders in 2012 Wisconsin S3 schools--oYRBS

  16. Little difference by Gender and Grade

  17. oYRBS Indices by Race/Ethnicity

  18. Academic Performance (n~21,000)

  19. Academic PerformanceRelative to students of A’s

  20. oYRBS Indices by Sexual Orientation

  21. Student Perceptions by Sexual OrientationRelative to Heterosexual (=0.0) n~18,000

  22. Violence Index by S3 School

  23. Perceived School Safety by S3 School
