Summary
The board approved the Prince Edward Elementary three-year support plan focused on students with disabilities (goal: raise subgroup performance to ~80% over three years) and received a separate informational presentation on the middle school’s comprehensive support and improvement (CSI) plan addressing persistent achievement gaps.
The Prince Edward County School Board approved a three-year multi-year support plan for Prince Edward Elementary School and heard an information presentation on the middle school’s CSI plan.
Miss Vance presented the elementary plan, which targets consistent evidence-based instruction and interventions for students with disabilities. Presenters cited baseline performance for students with disabilities in the mid-60s and set a three-year target near 80% proficiency for both reading and math for that subgroup. Key strategies include consistent implementation of evidence-based reading and math practices, teacher professional development, coaching, data analysis and targeted interventions to address gaps. Board members asked whether reaching 80% is required to exit support status; presenters said it is a three-year target and that exit criteria are governed by state accountability rules and can vary.
Miss Clark Reed presented the middle school’s CSI plan (information item), identifying prioritized root causes from SOL data and describing four evidence-based strategies (reading interventions emphasizing decoding and comprehension, math problem-solving routines, science curriculum alignment, and strengthened implementation with PD and coaching). The plan includes measurable objectives, timeline checkpoints and designated process owners.
The board moved and unanimously approved the elementary multi-year support plan (first and final read). The middle school plan will continue through state review processes as required.
