Strategic Plan Indicators

  • After each school leadership team reflected on its school culture, community, and the key contributing factors to student growth, they used this information to select the Strategic Plan Indicators that would have the greatest positive impact for their students.  Each school was directed to select two to six indicators on which to focus during the 2018-19 school year.  Certainly, we all know that if we focus narrowly and deeply, we are more likely to realize positive results.  The indicators that this school’s leadership team selected are noted below.

  • 2018-2019 Strategic Plan Indicator(s) Chosen by the School - 5, 6, 10 (expand to view details)

    View Full List/Descriptions of Indicators

    Indicator 5. INCREASE THE PERCENTAGE OF STUDENTS WHO READ ON OR ABOVE GRADE LEVEL BY THE END OF SECOND GRADE

    Indicator 6. INCREASE THE PERCENTAGE OF STUDENTS IN GRADES 3-8 WHO MEET OR EXCEED EXPECTATIONS ON STANDARDIZED READING, LANGUAGE ARTS, AND MATHEMATICS ASSESSMENTS

    Indicator 10.  INCREASE THE PERCENTAGE OF STUDENTS ATTENDING SCHOOL ON A DAILY BASIS

Strategic Journey

  • Throughout the next 3 years, schools will focus on their chosen Strategic Plan Indicators as the drivers to increase student engagement and achievement within their schools.  They will choose strategies to help them grow or increase within each indicator and will monitor and evaluate the student and school changes that take place along the journey.  Below you will see what this school imagines their students and school to look like in 2021 after having focused and worked on their chosen indicators for three years.

Our Vision of Success: 2021

  • Based upon our observations, our students need additional support with writing across the curriculum. In order to build student capacity in writing, we will build teacher capacity through monthly collaborative planning sessions to plan and implement writing strategies. Our goals include building teacher capacity by teaching effective writing strategies. We will utilize the AACPS curriculum, Units of Study, and provide writer workshop Professional Development as well. (Indicator 6)

    With regard to Math, our students need additional support with expressing mathematical reasoning. To grow students in this area, we will develop grade level math vocabulary via collaborative planning; and provide instruction utilizing math journal prompts with aligned rubrics expecting math vocabulary to be used. There will continue to be an ongoing emphasis on effective mathematical questioning and constructed response writing. In addition, we will continue to have mathematical conversations using math vocabulary. (Indicator 6)

    Students will see an increase in their academic achievement over the next three years. We will seek to provide more opportunities for students to monitor their own progress through the use of data folders and teacher student conferences. Students will continue to say that "teachers encourage me to do my best" as indicated on the Maryland School Survey. Adults will see increased student academic achievement in all content areas, specifically reading and math. Parents and other stakeholders will see a steady, yearly, increase in growth with the number of students who are reading at or above grade level as indicated on the Fountas and Pinnell reading assessment. With the inception of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) and school report cards, we will see an increase in students scoring at or above grade level on state assessments. More importantly, we will see growth in student performance over time in reading and math. Students will be more proficient writers in all subject areas. In math, adults will see an increase in math fact fluency and increased achievement in the expression of mathematical reasoning (Math Subclaim C questions). We will have monthly walkthroughs with feedback to teachers and students as well as formal and informal observations, to monitor success. (Indicators 2, 5 and 6) 

    Adults will see that 90% of our students come to school 90% of the time, and a plan of support for the remaining 10% of our students. Adults will also see a reduction in the number of Major Office Referrals, particularly for fighting and disrespect towards staff. With that, adults and school stakeholders will say that students are respectful towards staff as indicated on our school survey. (Indicator 10)  

    North Glen ES is a Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (P.B.I.S.) school and we strive to have all staff members trained in Community Circles and Restorative Practices. All staff members will participate in at least one community circle per month, and teachers and students will participate in community circles at least three times per week. We will work with the Office of Safe Schools and our P.B.I.S. liaison to develop and monitor our school plan for implementation. Students will see a decrease in the number of bullying incidents and a decrease in the number of their peers that say that "bullying is a small problem" at our school. (Indicator 3)
