Director
Position
Summary
The
Jacksonville
Public
Education
Fund
is
an
independent
nonprofit
organization
that
works
as
a
"critical
friend"
of
the
Duval
County
Public
Schools
and
others
to
support
long-‐term,
systemic
improvement
in
Jacksonville
Public
Schools.
Its
work
is
focused
primarily
in
two
areas:
increasing
the
number
of
students
who
graduate
from
public
schools
college
and
career
ready
and
increasing
community
engagement
in
the
public
education
system.
Through
our
relationships
with
district
and
community
partners,
JPEF
seeks
to
introduce
district
leaders
to
best
practices
in
support
of
student
achievement,
demonstrate
the
effectiveness
of
those
interventions
in
the
Duval
County
context,
and
advocate
for
their
broader
implementation
across
the
170+
public
schools
in
Jacksonville.
We
also
seek
to
provide
expert
policy
guidance
to
district
personnel
and
school
board
members
as
they
consider
implementing
changes
at
the
school
and
district
level.
JPEF
is
seeking
an
innovative,
visionary
and
passionate
candidate
to
fill
a
role
as
Director
of
Data
and
Policy.
The
position
is
a
new
role
at
JPEF
and
is
evidence
of
the
organization’s
strong
belief
in
using
analysis
to
form
the
bedrock
from
which
its
community
engagement
and
advocacy
work
grows.
To
this
end,
JPEF
envisions
a
portfolio
of
data
analysis
activities
for
which
the
director
will
be
responsible:
• Crafting
a
series
of
quarterly
policy
briefs
around
critical
areas
of
interest,
• Creating
of
an
annual
“report
card”
of
indicators
that
will
help
inform
the
public
about
the
system’s
progress
at
the
district
and
school
levels,
and
• Setting
a
vision
for
the
development
of
web-‐based
tools
for
educators,
district
leadership
and
community
stakeholders
related
to
career
and
college
readiness,
and
working
with
external
contractors
to
execute
that
vision.
Furthermore,
the
Director
will
be
responsible
for
setting
and
executing
on
an
innovative
and
developed
vision
for
the
role
data
and
policy
analysis
should
play
in
the
organization
in
the
coming
years.
Already,
JPEF
has
a
number
of
active
grant
applications
that
seek
to
add
personnel
and
capacity
to
the
data
analysis
team.
The
Director
will
report
to
the
Vice
President
for
Program
and
Strategic
Partnerships,
and
will
have
regular
interaction
with
the
organization
president,
particularly
during
the
development
of
a
data
and
policy
vision.
