Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

In 2022-23, NYC Outward Bound Schools served 30,141 students and educators, respectively, through our core program areas, Network Schools, Crew and Select Strategies for Schools, and Outdoor Adventure Programs.(See Schedule O).

Activities or mission (Part I)

To effect positive and lasting change in the lives of New York Citys young people and their public schools.

  • Network Schools We operated a citywide network of public schools that fully embodies our educational approach. Our network consists mainly of district schools but also includes one public charter school. (Continued on Schedule O).

    Expenses $3,139,942 · Grants $18,782 · Revenue $2,048,336

  • Crew and Select Strategies for Schools In addition to operating our network of schools, we also brought the most effective and replicable school-wide structures and classroom practices from our Network Schools to other public schools throughout New York City. These Select Strategies are specially designed to strengthen schools capacity to build positive culture and/or deliver demanding and engaging academics. We help each partner school adapt and implement one or more of these Select Strategies to address an articulated area of school need.(Continued on Schedule O).

    Expenses $2,350,289 · Revenue $1,992,194

  • Outdoor Adventure Programs Some of the most important lessons are learned outside of the classroom. Drawing upon Outward Bounds 60 years of preeminence in experiential education, NYC Outward Bound Schools offers a range of outdoor adventure programs for students and educators. We offer these programs on a fee-for-service basis to New York City public schools. They can be school-, city- and/or wilderness-based and can be targeted to youth and/or adults. They vary in length from a half day to a week. These programs strengthen community, belonging, collaboration, reflection and leadership and help bring the central lesson of Outward Bound to life-that with the right mix of challenge and support, all individuals, regardless of background or circumstance, can achieve more than they thought possible.(Continued on Schedule O).

    Expenses $1,063,069 · Revenue $297,177

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
