INTRODUCTION
Charter Schools USA (CSUSA) has been a leader in education reform since 1997. By August 2014 CSUSA will manage 70 schools in Florida, Louisiana, Georgia, North Carolina, Illinois, Indiana and Michigan.
Since the company’s inception, its mission has been to put students first!
THE CSUSA MISSION
Our mission is to ensure that all of our students achieve their academic potential and become responsible and productive members of society.
We bring an unwavering dedication to student achievement and an unyielding commitment to ethical and sound business practices.
JONATHAN HAGEStrong progress but our work is never complete!
Note from
Charter Schools USA has been on the frontlines of the education reform movement for 17 years. During that time, our organization has worked tirelessly to provide parents a high-quality choice for their child’s education.
Unlike traditional public schools, charter schools have to demonstrate success in order to stay open. Legally, we are held to a higher level of accountability. Publically, we are held to a higher level of scrutiny. Internally, we have clearly defined, high standards for academic excellence, personal growth and social development incorporated into our curriculum across all grades. Morally, we have a responsibility to provide students a high-quality education that prepares them for their future.
Last year in the State of Florida, CSUSA managed three early stage schools: Renaissance Charter School at Chickasaw Trail; Woodmont Charter School and Manatee Charter School.
As school grades were released in 2013, critics and headlines diminshed the performance of these schools even though CSUSA had only managed them for one or two years. Inside CSUSA we saw data and trend lines that were evident of change and progress. We were confident in our model and today I am proud to report that each of these schools has received a passing grade and are making strong gains. Despite these gains, we have more work to do.
Many times the students we enroll from the district are several years below grade average. Although this makes for a greater challenge, our network has been been successful at helping these students growacademically and achieve greater individual educational outcomes. This is an important service that charters and other school alternatives can provide. When parents and students are failed by the traditional system, it is our hope and our mission that we can fill the void and solve the issue.
In fact, every one of the schools we manage has increased its academic performance over time and closed the achievement gap, especially for low-income students.
There’s still more to be done, and we will work everyday to provide teachers with strategies and resources to be successful. We will fight in every community to ensure that parents and students have a choice.
Great By Choice,Jonathan Hage
CSUSA EDUCATION MODEL
At CSUSA we have clearly defined, high standards for academic excellence, personal growth and social development incorporated into our curriculum, across all grades.
These standards address the content that we expect our students to master as well as the skills they need to acquire in order to be productive members of our local and global society. Those skills include problem solving and critical thinking – areas where U.S. public school students fall alarmingly far behind their international peers.
We assess performance of our students against objective measures and constantly use the data to inform further instruction.
CSUSA’s Education Model is based on the following: ACCREDITATION | CSUSA is the first education management organization in the nation to receive full system-wide accreditation through AdvancED.
TARGETED INSTRUCTION | Improvement requires an understanding of what is working and what is not – at the individual student level.
RESEARCH-BASED EDUCATIONAL STRATEGIES | Our philosophy is that every child can learn given the appropriate learning tools and relevant teaching strategies.
OUTSTANDING EDUCATORS | When all factors are considered, the teacher has the single, greatest impact on a child’s development. This is why attracting and retaining the finest educators is a top priority for CSUSA.
PARENT INVOLVEMENT | Recognizing the role the family plays in a child’s academic and social development, we engage parents in the learning process. Parents contribute at least 20 hours of service to their school every year.
WELL-ROUNDED STUDENTS | Superior educational models recognize the importance of developing the whole child with parental involvement. CSUSA’s curriculum also incorporates a character development program.

READING Chickasaw’s reading proficiency this year remained stable at the school level with 47% of students earning proficient scores. Many students made above average gains and we anticipate that student learning gains, especially those of the lowest 25%, will reflect these improvements.
The average scale score gain school-wide was nine points, with the average 4th grader gaining 11 scale score points!
MATHChickasaw improved its math proficiency scores school wide by an average of 10 percentage points. This growth rate exceeded Orange County by eight percentage points. Math proficiency did not improve at the state level.
Chickasaw is still below the district average school wide, by 14 percentage points. We do anticipate that Chickasaw’s learning gains, and higher than average math growth, reflect the improvements in student performance.
The average school-wide scale score gain was 12 points and most grade levels saw average gains in the double digits.
SCIENCEChickasaw improved its 5th grade science performance by 15 percentage points, compared to the two percentage point increase at the district level and one percent increase state-wide. With 38% of students achieving proficiency, Chickasaw improved at a rate of 65%!
Chickasaw science is still 19 percentage points below the Orange County 5th grade average and 16 points below the state 5th grade average.
WRITING Chickasaw 4th graders raised its writing scores by 35 percentage points in 2014. Orange County raised 4th grade writing by one percentage point, while state-wide 4th grade writing went down by four percentage points.
On top of the substantial growth achieved by Chickasaw 4th graders, they out-performed both the state and district in proficiency with 74% of 4th graders scoring a 3.5 or higher. This represents an 18 point advantage over Orange County 4th graders and a 21 point advantage over 4th graders state-wide!
Chickasaw’s 74% proficiency rate also exceeded many neighboring schools (Union Park, Azalea Park, Pinar, Little River and Chickasaw Elementary), most by double digits (average 17 point advantage).

WOODMONT CASE STUDY
READING Woodmont increased its average proficiency from last year by nine percentage points. This growth rate exceeded that of Hillsborough County who had only a two percentage point increase. Woodmont also exceeded the state of Florida’s one percentage point of growth. At the elementary level (3rd through 5th grade) proficiency increased by over 10 percentage points (not shown).
The average student at Woodmont increased their scale score by almost 12 points in reading, enough to qualify for learning gains at most grade levels (among Level 1s and Level 2s).
MATHSchool-wide, Woodmont raised its math proficiency by an average of 18 percentage points, from 24% proficient in 2013 to 40% proficient in 2014. Every grade level increased their proficiency, with 3rd, 4th and 7th improving by over 20 percentage points each. This proficiency growth greatly exceeded both the state and Hillsborough County. Woodmont will continue their rigorous math instruction to ensure continued gains in 2015.
The average student at Woodmont increased their scale score by 16 points in math, enough to qualify for learning gains at any grade level in math (among Level 1s and Level 2s).
SCIENCEScience proficiency improved by an average of 12 percentage points from 2013 to 2014, almost seven times that of Hillsborough County and six times that of the state of Florida. Despite the significant growth demonstrated this year, science will continue to be a focus at Woodmont to ensure that students meet the standards of their peers.
WRITING 4th grade writing at Woodmont increased by 15 percentage points from 2013 to 2014, almost meeting the state average. In 2013 Woodmont’s 4th grade was 28 points behind the district average. In one year, Woodmont made up over half of this deficit with their 15 percentage point proficiency increase. Their rate of growth is triple that of Hillsborough county and far exceeds the state’s four percentage point drop in 4th grade.
This was Woodmont’s first year with an eighth grade and after including eighth grade scores writing proficiency increased by seven percentage points.

MANATEE CASE STUDY
READING Reading proficiency at Manatee Charter School increased by only one percentage point from 2013 to 2014. The average growth, school wide was 10 scale score points. Gains of this magnitude qualify as a learning gains for most grade levels in reading. Preliminary estimates show that Manatee Charter School will earn approximately 65 points for Reading Gains in 2014, an increase of more than 5 points from the 2013 school grade calculations.
MATHMath scores at Manatee Charter School improved by nine percentage points from 36% proficient in 2013 to 42% proficient in 2014, making up almost half of its district and state proficiency deficit in just one year. Growth of nine percentage points is double that of Manatee County and exceeds the stagnant proficiency state-wide.
The average student at Manatee Charter School increased their scale score by 12 points from 2013 to 2014, enough to qualify for learning gains at almost any grade level (among Level 1s and Level 2s).
SCIENCEWhile Manatee Charter School’s science proficiency was below expectations we have an opportunity for growth in the coming year. We are intent on providing the same focus and drive for growth evident in this year’s reading, math and writing proficiency scores.
WRITING Among CSUSA schools, Manatee Charter School had the largest writing gains with a 49 percentage point increase from 2013. In addition to proficiency gains, Manatee Charter School’s 62% proficient exceeded the proficiency of state and Manatee County fourth graders. From 2013 to 2014 Manatee Charter students more than quadrupled their writing proficiency, far exceeding the growth of Manatee County and the state.
