(SIP)

The Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) requires that

every school district have a Comprehensive School Improvement Plan (CSIP). St. Louis

has not had a true CSIP in several years.

The CSIP identifies important long-range improvement issues related to student performance and describes a specific set of actions. The CSIP is a fluid document. It correlates to No Child Left Behind, the Desegregation Settlement Agreement and, most importantly, to the Missouri School Improvement Program (MSIP) Standards on which

the District will be judged in 2009.

The Importance of the CSIP

The CSIP has three main goals which reflect the District’s long range plan and the

MSIP Standards:

- Performance

- Process & Performance

- Resource

Three Main Goals of MSIP

Performance Goals

SLPS will establish and implement a framework based on continuous improvement to provide its students with high quality, research-based

curriculum and instructional materials taught by certified, trained and highly qualified teachers who know and practice principles of education

most likely to benefit the learning of urban students, especially identified student

subgroups struggling to reach proficiency.

Process & Performance Goals

SLPS will plan, implement and regularly monitor the effectiveness and efficiency of

its key leadership functions including administration, management and

communication in a transparent fashion based on actual data that directly impacts student

performance.

Resource Goals

SLPS will strive to meet individual key standards at the desirable level of compliance

as contained in the MSIP Standards & Indicators Manual while continuing to maintain

at least minimum standards at all levels.

For example, by 2010 –

– 68% of students will score at the proficient or advanced level in Communication Arts on the MAP test

– 64% of students will score at the proficient or advanced level in Mathematics on the MAP

Improving Academic Achievement For All Students

Strategies to Improve Academic Achievement

The CSIP provides numerous strategies, including:

- School Performance Teams

- School Improvement Plans

- Curriculum aligned with state standards and assessments

- Attendance targets

- Professional Development

• All school facilities will meet a score of 85% or higher during regular building inspections

• The number of serious incidents from behavior infractions will be reduced by 10% each year

Providing a Safe and Secure Learning Environment

Strategies to Increase Safety and Security

• Increased use of technology

• Staff training at all levels on the revised comprehensive emergency operations plan

• Character Education

• Monthly reviews of all facilities for cleanliness and maintenance issues

Improving Our Fiscal Stability• Expenditures will not exceed revenues in

any proposed District budget

• The overall deficit will continue to be reduced

• Utilization of existing facilities will be fully reviewed for efficiency

Additional Objectives

• Improving community outreach and education

• Increasing use of technology to streamline services and improve academics

• Increasing the number of certified teachers in classrooms

The CSIP will be the guide to move the district to full accreditation. As items come to the Board of Education for approval they will reflect the CSIP and MSIP goals being

addressed.
