Project Summary for 1999-SI-FX-K001 s4

This is a continuation application that describes the work to be accomplished during Year 5 of the national evaluation of the Safe Schools/Healthy Students Initiative (SS/HS). The national evaluation includes two major components: a cross-site evaluation that focuses on the 97 sites funded in FY 1999, FY 2000, and FY 2001; and evaluation consortia which are comprised of a group of sites that received SS/HS funds during FY 2002 to accomplish specific, self-defined evaluation goals relevant to the SS/HS Initiative.

The major components of the cross-site evaluation are (1) a process evaluation, including case studies in the sentinel sites; (2) an outcome evaluation, including collection and analysis of thirteen key stakeholder surveys administered at three time points and archival data to provide community and school contextual information; and (3) an economic analysis. Major activities for Year 5 include completing data collection; analyzing the data; and preparing products for dissemination to practitioners, researchers, and policymakers.
