Charles County Public Schools (CCPS) Superintendent Maria V. Navarro, Ed.D., hosted a State of the Schools event for parents and community members on Oct. 12, 2023. During the event, Navarro shared a presentation about the state of school system and how it relates to the three focus areas of the CCPS Strategic Plan. The strategic plan includes three priority areas: student learning and achievement; access and opportunities; and culture and climate.

Each priority area includes goals and strategies with measurement metrics identified to evaluate progress. A copy of the presentation and a video of the presentation portion of event is posted on the CCPS website at https://www.ccboe.com/about/superintendent/state-of-the-schools-2023.

Following the presentation, attendees visited breakout rooms where staff from each CCPS school were set to speak about school improvement plans and how they tie into the overall CCPS strategic plan. Presentations about individual school improvement plans are posted to school websites, under the Announcements area. Parents are asked to view the plan for their child’s school and complete a brief survey included at the end of the presentation.

Questions about school-level plans should be directed to administrators at the individual school. The CCPS Strategic Plan is updated annually with data regarding measurement metrics. The Strategic Plan is posted in its entirety on the CCPS website at https://www.ccboe.com/academics/strategic-plan-data-dashboard.
