Business-Higher Education Forum's study of the Seamless Education Partnership began with a theory of action for cross-sector efforts to increase alignment from Pre-K through graduate school (P-20) and improve educational outcomes. BHEF's theory of action posits that community leaders coalesce around a shared vision that is shaped by local context and needs. Collaborative efforts are solidified through governance structures and by allocating resources to support the effort. Participants identify P-20 improvement strategies to address the academic core (curriculum and instruction), student experience (support services and co- and extra-curricular activities), and relevant policies. These strategies are specifically designed to achieve the community's desired outcomes. In August 2009, BHEF interviewed approximately 50 leaders from various sectors of the community--K-12 and higher education, community and faith organizations, and business--and analyzed those interviews for common themes related to the theory of action and research questions. BHEF also reviewed documents related to the Partnership. This report briefly summarizes some key findings of this analysis. (Contains 1 table, 2 figures and 1 footnote.)
