Strategy 2
Instruction: Provide opportunities for students to read and apply disciplinary texts to support content learning goals. 

Strategy 3
Instruction: Strengthen differentiation by designing and implementing effective scaffolds. 

Strategy 4
Targeted review prior to the Reading SOL test

Progression to Advanced Coursework

Goal: By the end of the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of Multilingual Learners with LEP level 1-4 enrolled in an advanced course (AP/HN/DE) for the 2025-2026 school year will increase from 36% to 42%.   In addition, 90% of all students in advanced classes (AP/HN/DE) will receive C- and above for their final mark. Furthermore, 80% of students in each subgroup enrolled in advanced courses will receive C- and above for their final mark. 

Strategy 1
Increase opportunities for students to engage in rigorous and open-ended tasks that require critical and creative thinking. 

 

Discipline

Goal: At the end of the 2024-2025 school year, Carter G Woodson High School will have suspended less than 10 students, and there will be fewer than 10 suspensions for the school year. 

Strategy 1
Utilize an MTSS framework to establish and organize a schoolwide continuum of proactive behavior and wellness supports which will provide targeted interventions to students at different level of need.

Portrait of a Graduate Presentation of Learning (POGPOL)

Goal: By the end of SY24-25, 100% of students will participate in POG POL through advisory, with scores entered into RUBI.
 

Strategy 1
Engage students in reflection and planning (Resource 1) to share their growth in a presentation of learning.

Strategy 2
Create opportunities for students to share their growth in a POG POL (Portrait of a Graduate Presentations of Learning - Resource 1) or, for IB schools, ATL POL (Approaches to Learning Presentation of Learning - Resource 2).

Strategy 3
Select a POG skill from the vertical articulation charts (Resource 1) to focus on with students and explicitly teach the skill; if at an IB school, select an ATL skill from the IB & POG Crosswalk (Resource 2) to focus on with students and explicitly teach the skill.
