Bladensburg Elementary School Performance Plan

Introduction
In alignment with the goals and priorities of Prince George's County Public Schools (PGCPS), the School Performance Plan (SPP) allows for a transparent and collaborative school improvement process with a focus on student achievement.

The School Performance Plan was developed this school year as the continuation of the detailed work and planning completed in the previous school year. The SPP focuses schools on engaging in disciplined inquiry cycles through the use of Plan, Do, Study, Act (PDSA). Through the successful utilization of PDSA, schools are able to impact student achievement and teacher practice by taking a scientific approach to school improvement.

SMART Goals
A targeted
aspiration that serves as the focal point for collective improvement efforts
Specific; Measurable; Achievable; Realistic; Timebound
Math- During the 2025-2026 SY, the percentage of students in grades 3-5 scoring proficient and distinguished will increase by 3% percentage points measured by the 2026 Maryland Comprehensive Assessment Program (MCAP) Mathematics assessment. RELA/ELA-By the end of the 2025–2026 school year, the percentage of Grade 3–5 students identified as Emerging or Developing learners on the ELA MCAP will decrease from 73% to 68%—a 5% reduction—through targeted improvement of vocabulary and comprehension skills delivered during daily small-group instruction and documented through progress-monitoring assessments. Not Selected-
Problem of Practice
One problem the school has chosen to address that will assist them in moving toward the overarching Smart Goal
82%-91% of Grades 3-5 students performing at the lowest two math proficiency levels, school lacks a defined, monitored tiered intervention system in the intermediate grades (3-5) that consistently diagnoses foundational skill gaps and provides targeted instruction to accelerate students towards proficiency. Seventy-three precent (73.41% or 232/316) of our students in Grades 3-5 scoring at the Beginning and Developing levels on the Spring 2025 MCAP is contributed by our school's lack of a defined, monitored tiered intervention system in the intermediate grades (3-5) that consistently diagnoses and closes gaps in Reading foundational skills, comprehension, and written expression and provides targeted instruction to accelerate students' proficiency in the identified Reading and Writing standards from the 2025 MCAP achievement data.  
Change Idea
A specific, actionable idea or technique that school teams will use to address the SMART Goal
Teachers will engage in a continuous cycle of CPD and vertical planning that includes data analysis and the subsequent preparation of resources and materials for flexible grouping. Practitioners will implement consistent and effective use of modified graphic organizers during daily small-group instruction and WOW Wednesdays to strengthen vocabulary and comprehension (informational text) skills for 3rd–5th grade Emerging (Level 1) and Developing (Level 2) readers.  
Target
The AIM set to determine if the implementation of the change idea was successful
Data Tracking 52.9 to 75%

Focus and Coherence 64.25% to 70%

Evidence of Flexible Grouping from 39.1% to 75%
By the end of the school year, at least eighty percent (80%) of the practitioners in 3rd through 5th-grade ELA classrooms will consistently and effectively implement modified graphic organizers during daily small-group instruction and WOW Wednesdays to improve 3rd-5th grade vocabulary and comprehension skills, as evidenced by monthly instructional walkthrough data and student artifacts.  
**PI: 30% of 3rd-5th Grade students will achieve a performance level of "On or Above Grade Level on Benchmark Assessment.

**IPI: 45 % of 3rd-5th Grade students will achieve a performace level of" Advanced or Proficient on Milestone Task.
IPI: At least forty percent (40%) of the **3rd Grade** students will score On or Above Grade Level on the **DIBELS #8 Winter Diagnostic** Assessment.

At least eighteen percent (23%) of the **4th and 5th-grade** students will score Early On or Above Grade Level on the **iReady Reading Winter Diagnostic** assessment.

PI: By the **Winter Benchmark II Reading Assessment**, at least 24% of **3rd- and 5th-grade** students will score at the On Track or Advanced Learner proficiency levels, representing a 5% increase from the Fall Benchmark result of 19%.
