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 number of first time Algebra 1 test takers scoring proficient on the Algebra 1 MCAP will increase by 3-5 percentage points. | RELA/ELA-During the 2024-2025 SY, the percentage of students scoring proficient or higher will increase by 3 percentage points as measured by the 2025 MCAP English Language Arts and Literacy assessment. |
Attendance-During 2025-2026 SY, students identified as chronically absent will decreased by 3 percentage points. |
| Problem of Practice | ||
| One problem the school has chosen to address that will assist them in moving toward the overarching Smart Goal | ||
| There is inconsistency in modeling thought processes by teachers for solving, creating, and evaluating contextual and real-world problems. Therefore students lack the ability to apply these strategies to mathematical equations and scenarios.guide | There is an inconsistency with modeling how to extract key information from informational texts, leading to difficulties for students when extracting key details and formulating written responses. |
There is Inconsistency in attendance reporting which suggests that procedural barriers or time constraints may be affecting data reliability. |
| Change Idea | ||
| A specific, actionable idea or technique that school teams will use to address the SMART Goal | ||
| The subset of Algebra 1 teachers (3 - General Education, ELD, and SPED) will model and implement a weekly reasoning task that will require a constructive response and aligned to the curriculum with descriptive feedback. | Integrate the Achieve 3000 platform to provide opportunities to engage in MCAP-like questions. | |
| Target | ||
| The AIM set to determine if the implementation of the change idea was successful | ||
| \* 70% of the teachers observed are implementing at least 2 components from each category from the Math look fors document. \* 11 out of the 13 math teachers' lesson plans reflect all of the components needed to demonstrate connections between relevant evidence and reasoning. |
80% of the teachers observed are implementing the Achieve 3000 program. | |
| \* 3% of students will score 50% or higher | 50% of students will score higher on the English 10 MCAP. | |
