1 MSDE Priority Schools Monitoring Teams Second Onsite Visit Feedback for: LEA SIG Priority Cohort I Schools SIG Priority Cohort II Schools Non-SIG Priority Schools SIG Priority Cohort I School (Implementing Turnaround Principles) Baltimore City Public School System (BCPSS) Booker T. Washington Middle School (turnaround) Augusta Fells Savage Institute of Visual Arts High School (turnaround) Calverton Elementary/Middle School (restart) Commodore John Rodgers Elementary/Middle School (restart) Frederick Douglass High School (turnaround) Benjamin Masonville Cove High School (turnaround) Cherry Hill Elementary/Middle School (restart) Steuart Hill Academic Academy (turnaround principles) Baltimore Civitas (turnaround principles) Baltimore IT Academy (turnaround principles) MSDE SIG Priority Leads: Jim Newkirk, Gail Clark Dickson, and Kelly Coates Title I School Improvement Grant (SIG), FY 2009 and FY 2010, and Maryland s Flexibility Plan for Priority Schools: The School Improvement Grant (SIG) Program, FY 2009 and FY 2010, authorized under section 1003(g) of Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Act of 1965, provides funding through State educational agencies (SEAs) to local educational agencies (LEAs) with the lowest-achieving schools that have the greatest need for the funds and demonstrate the strongest commitment to use the funds to raise significantly the achievement of students. USDE approved Maryland s Flexibility Plan in May 2012 which included Maryland s SIG Cohort I and Cohort II schools as Priority Schools. In addition, Maryland s Flexibility Plan identified 2 additional lowest achieving schools that are identified as Non-SIG Priority Schools. Purpose of MSDE Priority School Teams Second Onsite Visit: As approved by USDE in both Title I School Improvement Grants and Maryland s Flexibility Plan, MSDE, through Priority Schools Monitoring Teams, will conduct three onsite monitoring visits annually in each LEA with identified Priority Schools to ensure that the LEA is implementing the intervention models fully and effectively in its Priority Schools. The purpose of the Priority School Teams second onsite visit is to review documentation that substantiates the LEA and Priority Schools implementation, both programmatic and fiscal, of its intervention model, as approved by MSDE. Once all documentation provided by the LEA and Priority Schools have been reviewed, Priority School Teams will determine a level of implementation for each section/component/strategy/action that consists of being, PARTIALLY, or NOT. For areas that are in this Division of Student, Family and School Support Page 1
2 feedback, MSDE will continue to monitor sustainability of the level of implementation. Based on this second onsite visit feedback, MSDE expects BCPSS to review and analyze the feedback and make adjustments to its approved intervention model through the school system s internal controls and submission of programmatic and fiscal amendments to MSDE.

Division of Student, Family and School Support Page 6
7 TABLE 1: LEA Commitments and Capacity Monitoring Date: March 7, 2014 LEA: Baltimore City Public School System (BCPSS) MSDE Team : Jim Newkirk Level of Implementation: e. What steps will the LEA take to ensure that the Priority Schools funds are utilized (1) in a timely way and (2) effectively and efficiently to support the required components of the selected intervention? Specifically, what assurances will the LEA make that schools and LEA support teams have access to these funds, even during annual rollover processes? How will the LEA support principals timely and effective use of these funds? BCPSS communicated the following information to this question: Deborah Oliver, Business Manager, assures that Priority Cohort II (SIG II) schools and Central Office Staff are spending allocated funds in a timely manner and are being used effectively. The Business Manager works closely with the Grants Office to ensure all fiscal compliance. Fiscal oversight for Priority Cohorts I and III is provided by the Office of Federal Programs, Title I. All Priority Schools are required to conduct quarterly spending updates to ensure proper use of funds. MSDE Special Note: In the fiscal sections of this feedback, there is documentation that many funds are not being spent in a timely manner. MSDE is questioning the school system s internal controls to ensure these funds are being spent in a timely manner; therefore, MSDE is directing Baltimore City to provide an action plan with specific timelines to correct this funding issue. mlevel of Implementation: s d f. Within this proposal, the LEA identified actions taken or in the planning to support individual Priority Schools implementation of the selected interventions. Looking across the commitments made for the schools, what additional actions will the LEA take to ensure that the selected interventions are implemented as designed and to make the other changes such as: (1) realignment of other resources; (2) removal of expectations that might run counter to the approach outlined in the selected intervention; (3) timely modification of practices and policies (those anticipated ahead of time and those that will emerge during implementation); and (4) engaging in reflective and sustained, collaborative conversation and planning to ensure that improvement efforts can be sustained once this funding ends?

8 TABLE 1: LEA Commitments and Capacity Monitoring Date: March 7, 2014 LEA: Baltimore City Public School System (BCPSS) MSDE Team : Jim Newkirk 1. Realignment of Resources: BCPSS communicated the following information to this question: Schools will be given a per pupil allocation for spending through local funding. In addition, BCPSS will use the school system s Title I, Part A funding, as part of its required 20% reservation, for its priority schools in Cohort I and Cohort III. The schools will have the opportunity to align their resources to the targeted interventions. The schools that have external operators will be able to realign their funding resources where necessary to ensure the flexibility to meet the needs of their targeted interventions. City Schools will also leverage Race to the Top funds both from the SEA and LEA to ensure schools can meet their targets. The Turnaround Office and Title I office will merge in order to provide more coordinated, targeted support to Priority Schools. A new Director is expected by the end of March. 2. Removal of Expectations: BCPSS communicated the following information to this question: Priority Schools are given the flexibility to make adjustments to the traditional school calendar and create alternative schedules. Schools have autonomy in budget, staffing and programming. The schools will be supported to make best use of collaborative planning time and to embed professional development within the typical school day. The schools will have the flexibility to use their people, time and money to ensure that their school dramatically improves student achievement. 3. Modification of Policies: BCPSS communicated the following information to this question: The central office support team will meet regularly with the school based support team in order to proactively rethink polices that may impact the expedited turnaround of schools.

9 TABLE 1: LEA Commitments and Capacity Monitoring Date: March 7, 2014 LEA: Baltimore City Public School System (BCPSS) MSDE Team : Jim Newkirk The district has modified its procedure for evaluating restart operators. Contracts for restart operators will be extended two years to a total five year period. After five years, operators will go through the district s Charter Renewal Process with some modifications. Extending the contracts will provide the district with enough data to make an informed decision on the progress of that operator and align the process with the rest of the district s operator run schools. The district has implemented School Effectiveness Reviews at all 10 Priority Schools and uses the results as an additional indicator for school turnaround. The Office of Human Capital, in partnership with other central office leaders, visited each of the impacted schools existing staff to discuss the respective school model, the direction of the initiative and lay out the case for change. A key component for existing staff was the voluntary transfer process; with relaxed requirements which encouraged our top performers to consider restart and turnaround schools (i.e. time in position requirements were relaxed). At each of the communication sessions, external operators were invited to attend and discuss their respective schools and opportunities. Employees were given a chance to interact with the operator to determine a fit, and learn more about the instructional philosophy of the organization. During the district s voluntary transfer process, a process was developed for restarts/turnarounds to have first access to the strongest candidates. In the past, the voluntary transfer list was posted on a common dashboard, and all principals had equal access. This year, the report was culled three times for primary review and action by turnarounds and restarts. The schools were able to initiate discussions with HQ teachers. This first bite at the apple allowed for the schools with the highest need to get the highest priority in staffing their schools with the best, most qualified talent. The early communication points led to earlier interviews. The interview process was ramped up for these schools. Where a simple interview may have been the protocol, both external operators and central office staff developed a rigorous process which included face to face interviews, a review of student data, sample lessons (in some cases), instructional observations, and feedback from existing leadership. These schools used considerably more data points-on a larger scale- than ever before to evaluate and recommend staff. 4. Engaging in Reflective Conversation: BCPSS communicated the following information to this question: The Office of Turnaround Schools will begin long-range planning with the school operators and school leaders from the onset of the school turnaround. These planning sessions will involve creating a long-range strategic plan Division of Student, Family and School Support Page 9

During monthly walkthroughs, the Turnaround Specialist checks in with school administration to ensure that strategies are being implemented as planned and to proactively address any issues. Additionally, the school system s Title I, Part A funding will assist in sustainability of the intervention model in the system s Priority Cohort I and Cohort III Schools. Level of Implementation: g. What are the major challenges to full and effective implementation of all components/requirements of the approved intervention models for your school system s SIG Priority and Non-SIG Priority Schools? How will the Central Support Team address these challenges? BCPSS communicated the following information to this question: Identifying highly effective staff for every position. Timeliness of funding receipt MSDE Special Note: In the fiscal sections of this feedback, there is documentation that many funds are not being spent in a timely manner. MSDE is questioning the school system s internal controls to ensure these funds are being spent in a timely manner; therefore, MSDE is directing Baltimore City to provide an action plan with specific timelines to correct this funding issue.
