Purpose:The School Performance Plan (SPP) is a tool designed to support principals and school leadership teams in improving overall school performance, with an emphasis on instruction and student achievement. The tool acts as an anchor in a year-round reflective evaluation process that relies on data-informed decision making to drive documented school-level strategic planning. It is designed to capture strategies aligned with resources that support instructional priorities, a culture of achievement, and community and parent engagement to promote improved student outcomes.

II. PREVIOUS YEAR SPP OUTCOMES AND REFLECTION

• In this section, document the outcomes from last year's goals and reflect on the root causes surrounding why your school met or did not meet those goals.

Outcomes (Effect Data): Complete the chart below

Last Year's Goals (auto-populate) Final Outcome (Do not analyze here, just state end outcome)

Was the goal met or not met?

Analyze and provide reflection on last year’s outcome(s)

Goal 1: By June 2016, there will be an increase in the mean percent score on the Algebra I EOC assessment from 46.6% to 60%.

We did not meet the goal. Not Met Large number of students performed "basic" on the EOC assessment.

Goal 2: By June 2016, students in grades 9 - 11 will increase proficiency by 10% in routine writing tasks, as measured by third quarter assessments.

Students were able to move by 10% in routine writing tasks as measured by third quarter assessments

Met Based off of SLO data, which included a writing section and progress monitoring of writing, we were able to meet our goal.

Goal 3: By June 2016, there will be an increase in student attendance from 88.8% to 92%.

According to the ILT tool, we did not meet this goal. We did increase to 90.6% attendance, however.

Not Met We provided monthly incentives to improve grade wide attendance, and we hired a fulltime attendance monitor.

Goal 4: By June 2015, the overall grade point average for Western High School students will increase from 2.24% to 2.5%, as measured by BCPS ILT Tool.

School-wide GPAs increased to 2.5. Met According to the ILT tool, we did not meet this goal, but the ILT tool is only accounting for two (2) of our seniors' GPAs. Based off of our quarterly reports and progress monitoring, we did meet this goal.

Reflections on SER Visit: If your school had SER visit then reflect on your SER visit to answer the following questions.

Reflection Questions Responses

Did the findings from the SER align with your perception of your school’s performance at the time of the site visit? Which findings were surprising? Deflating? Encouraging?

In reviewing the SER findings along with your performance data (qualitative and quantitative) what is the school identifying as an area of focus?

Define your current state. What preferred state would you like to reach?

School Performance Plan for Western High 6 of 34

What actions you would take to reach your preferred state?

School Performance Plan for Western High 7 of 34

III. INQUIRY

In this section, document your questions that your Instructional Leadership Team has regarding teaching, learning, and leadership to support planning for the next academic school year. Keep a focus on past and future shifts in instructional programming in response to standards; and expectations regarding programmatic goals, scheduling and collaborative planning.

This is a tool to support the activity of Inquiry which should come before looking at data. o Generating questions before looking at your school’s data supports a focus for the data analysis.o Questions focused on a deeper understanding of contents and grade level expectations for MCCRC and PARCC assessments.o Ask questions directly related to raising the “Bar” for every student.

Teaching (Adult Actions) Questions Learning (Student Outcomes) Questions Leadership (ILT Actions) Questions

V. ANALYZE DATA TO PRIORITIZE STRENGTHS AND NEEDS (Refer to Appendix A to assist)

Select the data that can answer your inquiry questions and analyze it to document top three strengths and needs within your school. Use this data to identify the problem(s) of practice by conducting a root cause analysis (strengths and needs based on evidence) Prioritize the problem of practice (needs)

Prioritized Strengths based on Effect Data (Student Outcomes) Inferences (Why is this an area of strength?)

identified goal: If we use (strategy), then the following will result (student impact, effective implementation behavior).
