BOARD OF TRUSTEESFERRIS STATE UNIVERSITY
On behalf of all of us at the Ferris State University Charter Schools Offi ce (FSU-CSO), it is our pleasure to
present the 2014-15 Annual Report. This publication offers a broad overview of the performance of the
public school academies authorized by FSU and the work of the CSO.
While some basic performance data is included in this report, it was not practical nor our intent to include
all data for each academy. Readers who wish to gather more information in this area are directed to the
CSO website: ferris.edu/charterschools. It is there that one can fi nd a wealth of performance data on each
academy over a period of years.
As an Authorizer of public school academies, Ferris State University strives to provide the highest quality of
oversight and accountability consistent with best practice and State and federal law. We greatly appreciate
your taking the time to get to know more about FSU-authorized academies and the extraordinary work being
accomplished by caring and skilled educators throughout our State.

VISIONFerris State University will authorize public school academies that promise to transform the lives
of students by demonstrating high-quality performance.
The core values of the Ferris State University Charter Schools Of ce are the foundation of our organization’s culture. Our values are static, unchanging and non-negotiable, built from the
belief that learning is a lifelong process and all students can learn.
Student Learning
As a higher education institution, student learning
is in our DNA; we see the opportunities created
when students succeed, and we focus our
oversight and support efforts on continual student
success.
A Collaborative Working Environment
By supporting each other and building
partnerships, we encourage a sense of
community through cooperation, teamwork and
consensus building with our stakeholders.
Diversity
Recognizing that stakeholders are made up of
diverse populations, we honor diversity of ideas,
beliefs, and cultures.
Opportunities
Through the work we do as a charter school
authorizer, we help create learning opportunities
and environments by lending support for
professional growth and development.
Excellence
Committed to superior results, we engage
in practices that produce the highest quality
outcomes in all our endeavors.
Accountability
Accountability leads to academic progress-we
believe in being held accountable for our work as
an authorizer as deeply as we believe in holding
all stakeholders accountable for their work.
Integrity and Trust
Our actions are guided by fairness and respect
through transparency, effective communication
and the building of positive relationships with
each other and our stakeholders.

In summer 2015, the CSO partnered with the Ferris State University Of ce of Transfer and Secondary School Partnerships to offer the Woodbridge Promise Program. Named after the founder of Ferris State University, Woodbridge N. Ferris, the program allowed juniors going into their senior year an opportunity to register for an eight-week summer program in which they could sharpen their skills in both math and English language arts in preparation for college and earn six college credits. Taught by adjunct professors from the University, the program was open to students attending either Consortium College Preparatory High School, or Michigan Collegiate High School. Students also had the opportunity to take an online class in fall 2015 to earn an additional three credits. Run as a pilot program, thirteen students enrolled in the course and earned tuition-free credit towards college.

HIGHLIGHTS &ACCOMPLISHMENTS2014-2015
In an effort to assist its authorized academies, the CSO offered Academy Booster Grants. Each academy received a check equal to $5.00 per student based on the fall 2014 count. While Academies were not told speci cally how they had to spend the grant, they were asked to use the money to provide opportunities for students that they may not normally have been able to offer.

In collaboration with the National Charter Schools Institute, the CSO instituted the Board Development Series which was made available to all FSU-authorized academy board members. The training materials are provided in a series of “decks” or presentations online and include four units: Orientation, Academics, Legal/Statutory, and Governance/Leadership. Each unit contains from one to four lessons, and each unit is 20-30 minutes in length. Board members can view the presentations at their leisure while earning professional development credits.
To strengthen boards, the board orientation process of FSU-authorized schools was revamped. Orientation now includes required viewing of Unit 1 (four lessons) of the Board Development Series. In addition, a new Board Handbook was developed which contains information speci c to FSU as an authorizer, and resources and other information that board members can refer to quickly.
