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.

||
| Math- By the end of the 2025-2026 school year, the percentage of Algebra 1 students scoring proficient or higher on the Algebra 1 MCAP will increase from 8.1% in school year 2024-2025 to 13.1% in school year 2025-2026, representing a 5% point growth, as measured by Spring 2026 Algebra 1 MCAP scores. | Culture and Climate-By the end of the school year 2025-2026 school year, the results for the Eleanor Roosevelt High School MSDE Report Card in the Environment-Behavior & Academic Supports topic will increase 2 percentage points from 24 favorable percentage points on the SY 2025 report card to 26 favorable percentage points by SY 2026 MSDE Report Card. | Not Selected- |
| Problem of Practice | ||
| One problem the school has chosen to address that will assist them in moving toward the overarching Smart Goal | ||
| Due to lack of exposure to MCAP style problems, students are not able to transfer prior knowledge and build connections to new content, resulting in a lack of performance on the Alg 1 MCAP with only 8.1% of students scoring developing learner or better on the 2024-2025 exam. | Due to gaps in consistent opportunities for student collaboration, input and recognition, students feel less supported within ERHS school climate and culture, as indicated in the MSDE School Report Card Student Data receiving a 2.7 out 7.0 points. | |
| Change Idea | ||
| A specific, actionable idea or technique that school teams will use to address the SMART Goal | ||
| Once per month in collaborative planning, the Algebra 1 team will choose an MCAP Type 1 question (conceptual understanding, procedural skills, reasoning, and the ability to use mathematics to solve real world problems) be assessed for student skill mastery weekly. The students will be exposed to the MCAP Type 1 question weekly as it will be incorporated into the weekly lesson plan. |
The school's PBIS team will develop and implement a "Raider Reward Bucks" program designed to promote student engagement/recognition and active participation of staff in celebrating students' daily successes; this will also included recognition of staff participation in the "Raider Reward Bucks" program. | |
| Target | ||
| The AIM set to determine if the implementation of the change idea was successful | ||
| 100% of Algebra 1 teachers will assess student mastery on the Type 1 MCAP-style problem in their classroom at least once per month. | * 25% of staff will participate in the "Raider Reward Bucks" program totalling 500 individual "Raider Reward Bucks" given. | |
| By Algebra 1 Benchmark 1, 5% more students will score in the 3-4 score range (from 8.1% on the 2025 Alg 1 MCAP to 13.1% on the Algebra 1 Benchmark 1). | · 75% of students earning "Raider Rewards Bucks" attend the celebration activity · 75% of students indicate positive impact of "Raider Rewards Bucks" program (and give feedback on future implementation) |

| Multilingual Learners:Students with Disabilities | [https://muse.jhu.edu/article/210567](https://mu se.jhu.edu/article/210567) Grade: 5–12, Instruction: Provide direct and explicit vocabulary in context comprehension strategy instruction. ESSA Level: 3 (ESSA-Level Evidence-Based Practices) |
All the ELD and SPED classes will use graphic organizers to provide direct vocabulary instruction in context in an effort to improve reading comprehension and unlocking writing prompts monthly. Students will be given monthly activities surrounding graphic organizers and prompts in order to collect data for specific target groups by at least 5 teachers of SPED/ELD specific course sections. Teachers will meet to discuss student data and work on continuous improvements. |
