Background Information: The Partnership
The United Education Action Team was established in 2008 as a
“collaboration between The District, the City Connections, the Grizzly United, and
the Westside University’s School of Education and other stakeholders” (MOU,
2008). It is important to note that the name of each organization has been changed in
an effort to maintain confidentiality. A list of pseudonyms can be referenced in
Appendix K. Each organization has its own independent mission statement but
joined this educational partnership in an effort to reshape the vision for teaching and
learning within Prep High School and its feeder schools. Figure 4.1 illustrates the
members involved in UEAT as well as each organization’s independent mission
statement.

Also, the study will identify the persistent barriers to co-constructions and effective strategies to overcome those barriers within a community-school-university partnership. This study expands on the research conducted during the first year of the partnership’s operation and will offer insight as to the sustainability of the co-constructed processes between the community-school-university partnership.
