Our educational plan for student success

The NM Public Education Department requires each public school to create an Educational Plan for Student Success (EPSS). The EPSS document is some 37 pages long and is pretty boring reading. I have condensed it into a one-page brochure and attached it as page two of this week’s Backpack Mail. PED requires us to identify goals for seven areas: reading, math, parent involvement, safe and drug-free schools, English language learners, graduation rates, and highly qualified staff. The EPSS was developed by our Instructional Council and updated quarterly by school leadership. It is designed to guide our instructional and budgetary decisions for the year. If you would like a copy of the full 37-page document, drop me an email and I will forward it to you.
