Here are my suggestions:

I think the data that John T. mentions at the beginning would be better delivered as ancillaries within the case. So, maybe omit his reference to this data and begin the clip with "I'm thrilled....school based program" then move to "what I can give you are real life stories..." (when he mentions students, maybe used crowded hallway shot?) then move to Dennis giving stats re: graduation and carry on from there?

The following pieces aren't clearly focused on "measuring success" and might work better in the "structuring the extended day program" clip: John S re: wanting kids to graduate and offering courses at 2:45, Dennis re: bell schedule, John T re: putting in longer days.

Within Ronnie's quote, omit my interjection of "soo" (sorry about that!). Any other student voices to include?

List John S as AP and Social Studies Teacher in all clips.

End with "now I have data to show that it works" (eliminate "there's no guess work).

Thanks!
