This report outlines the results of an evaluation of the Freedom Schools project as it was implemented in Charlotte, North Carolina, during the summer of 2017. The evaluation study was a collaborative project between the Center for Adolescent Literacies (CFAL) and the Center for Educational Measurement and Evaluation (CEME). Both centers are housed within the College of Education at the University of North Carolina (UNC) Charlotte and have extensive records of collaboration with community groups as well as state and local educational agencies. The survey items that were used in the data collection process were initially developed and piloted during the 2016 Freedom Schools program year. This process was accomplished by a collaborative effort of CFAL, CEME, and Freedom Schools. An initial set of draft survey items were developed through an iterative process by CFAL and CEME staff. The Freedom Schools program goals and objectives, and the goals of the program evaluation effort were carefully considered as each draft was reviewed and revised. Freedom schools staff were given an opportunity to review the draft survey items and were interviewed to gather their input regarding whether the survey would meet the needs of the program and effectively solicit the feedback of program participants.
