When looking at large, urban school districts across America, one may observe many common issues that act as limitations for students. However, when taking a closer look at the data, each district and school has unique barriers that impact students and families. This study focuses on Buffalo City School District (BCSD), the second largest school district in New York State as of 2022. BCSD has experienced similar structural inequities in other large urban districts nationwide (NYSED Data Site, 2022). BCSD is unique, though, because it has taken great strides to improve student outcomes by supporting the development of restructuring and changes. BCSD has been a pioneer in the state of New York in implementing many of these initiatives. These changes and initiatives include adding departments dedicated to leveraging student capabilities to build better curricula and offering unique courses focused on culturally responsive initiatives. Most notably, Buffalo City School District has made efforts to increase local, grassroots, enriching programs and add community partnerships in its schools to support the district's work in addressing the multi-faceted areas that families and youth navigate. Research has suggested that bringing in grassroots, local, or goal-focused community-based organizations can help improve schools. (Diamond & Freudenberg, 2016, p. 937; Gross et al., 2015; Hicks et al. 2012). This research asserts that community organizations allow schools to provide a better advantage for the students and families because they can often cultivate trusting relationships in ways that school staff cannot accomplish and offer various learning opportunities that may not regularly be offered in a school setting. There is limited research, however, on how community organizations work toward student success within districts, how they define success, and the supports and barriers to success. This study bridges this gap by surveying community-based organizations that partner with BCSD to meet the needs of youth and families. The data collected in this study explores the perception of success by community-based organizations and the level of support community-based organizations feel they need to implement successful student and family supplemental programming within the Buffalo City School District. This study seeks to understand how community partners perceive their work, its impact on students' overall success, how they make programming decisions, and the supports and barriers to their success. This survey will be one of the first universal cross-communicative tools for meaningful feedback from BCSD community partners.
