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- 2025–2026 Goal: The percentage of students in grades 3–5 scoring at the proficient level or higher on the MCAP will increase from 24% to 28%. |
RELA/ELA-2025–2026 Goal: The percentage of students in grades 3–5 scoring at the proficient level or higher on the MCAP will increase from 50% to 54%. |
Not Selected- |
|
Problem of Practice One problem the school has chosen to address that will assist them in moving toward the overarching Smart Goal |
||
|
Based on data analysis, teachers are not providing sufficient exposure to different question types that require students to model their work. Teachers will give exposure to different types of questions from the Public Release Task in conjunction with the tasks in the CIM. Teachers will be more intentional in modeling question responses using exemplars, having student conversations, and providing meaningful feedback. |
Based on data analysis, teachers are not providing sufficient exposure to question styles that mimic MCAP. Teachers will give exposure to Tier II vocabulary and more opportunities to unlock the question/prompt, especially the questions that have Part A and Part B. Teachers will more intentional in modeling how to unlock the question and determine which text evidence supports the response by revisiting the text. |
|
|
Change Idea A specific, actionable idea or technique that school teams will use to address the SMART Goal |
||
|
The changes that will be made: 1. Expose students to the questions types that require modeling starting October 1 2. Students focus will change to learning by doing and using modified graphic organizers (based on 7-Key Strategies; High Leverage Practices) |
The changes that will be made: 1. Expose students to the Tier II vocabulary required to understand what the question is asking. 2. Students' focus will change to learning by doing through unlocking the question/prompt via teacher modeling. |
|
|
3. Teachers will intentionally plan for collaborative conversations during Math Talk 4. Teachers will have conversations with students, individually or in groups, to offer meaningful feedback and the change to modify question responses |
3. Model for students how to respond to questions that have Part A and Part B by revisiting the text. |
|
|
Target The AIM set to determine if the implementation of the change idea was successful |
||
|
Self-Report 2x during the cycle (planning collab planning phase) specifically asking about question types that support modeling and the use of modified graphic organizers. Also, the teachers will provide a self-report regarding intentional planning for Math Talk/Collaborative Conversations that lead to a written response.
Submit Evidence 2x during the cycle (examining student work collab planning phase) by uploading evidence of question types that support modeling (including student responses) as well as students use of modified graphic organizers. Evidence will also be provided showing opportunities for student to receive feedback and make corrections (ex: before/after).
Informal Observation 1x during the cycle specifically focusing on: 1) Using of manipulatives/tools in math to model question responses; 2) Using modified graphic organizers designed for task that will help students to formulate a written response. Teachers will receive feedback with 48 hours in eDoctrina. |
Self-Report 2x during the cycle (planning collab planning phase) specifically asking about question types that support modeling Part A and B responses that revisit the text. Also, the teachers will provide a self-report regarding intentional planning for citing evidence.
Submit Evidence 2x during the cycle (examining student work collab planning phase) by uploading evidence of question types that support exposure to Tier II vocabulary.
Informal Observation 1x during the cycle specifically focusing on: 1) Part A and Part B question stems that are modeled for students and where student can cite evidence; 2) Intentional instruction in Tier II vocab. |
