  1. Mission The Prince George’s County Board of Education will advance the achievement of its diverse student body through community engagement, sound policy governance, accountability, and fiscal responsibility. Vision 100-percent of Prince George’s County Public School graduates will be college and/or career ready.

  2. PGCPS Goals High expectations drive the BOE, Central Offices, Schools and Classrooms. All students are 21st Century Graduates 1 HIGH STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT Actively develop and support effective instructional leaders and teams Establish a safe and supportive school climate Engage parents and community members to provide meaningful input and support Innovate, maximize resources, streamline central office supports

  3. Paradigm Shift • The most important interaction is between the teacher and the learner. Teaching improves through reflection with colleagues around practice. Effective teachers are paramount. • Principals are the guiding force for setting the expectations and culture of a school. Rigor and high expectations are attainable through the alignment of curriculum, assessments, and practice. • Schools are the unit of change. Decision-making authority must be placed closer to schools in a way that is consistent with efficient and effective operations. School leaders cannot be held accountable for student achievement if they do not have significant control over their work. • Central office must shift to better support schools. Schools operating with greater control need coordinated, timely and differentiated support. Prince George’s County Public Schools

  4. Vision for School Control and Central Support Over time, schools will expand control over… Staffing Instruction Scheduling 2011-12 Budgeting Vision: Expand autonomy for all schools. Targeted guidance and support from the central office will be differentiated by school performance, capacity and need. Prince George’s County Public Schools

  5. How is a school currently funded? Today schools are allocated positions and dollars: • Administrative staff and supporting personnel • Classroom teachers • ESOL teachers • School operating funds (SOR) • Administrative allotment • Other teachers (Art, PE, etc.) • Specialty Programs • Special Education • Food services, maintenance, cleaners, security, health • Title I • Grants • Utilities Prince George’s County Public Schools

  6. PGCPS Resources • FY 2011 = $1.63 B operating budget • $1.04 B = School Operating Resources • $963 M = salaries, wages and benefits • $14.8 M = supplies and materials 64% of operating budget is budgeted to schools Out of that, 92% of SOR is personnel

  7. Current School Resource Control Schools today make decisions on roughly 2% of their overall budget. Source: FY 2011 Budget

  8. Focusing on a Solution In the fall of 2010, we began researching and developing a system to address the specific needs of PGCPS. • Increase Equity:Reduce the variation in per pupil funding by school. Equitably fund each student at each school based on his or her educational needs. • Empower and Serve Schools: Balance school-level accountability for results with increased scope and flexibility around budgetary and operational decisions. Centraloffice should support schools to meet their needs through timely and high quality service. • Support System Priorities:Use data to fairly and effectively allocate resources to students based on need using a deliberate and thorough process. Fund and support systemic priorities in a way that puts student needs first.

  9. School Resource Control Under SBB “Unlocking” resources for schools to budget shifts the point of control. School Resources FY 2011 Prince George’s County Public Schools

  10. Student Based Budgeting • Student Based Budgeting (SBB) distributes funding to schools based on students’ needs and characteristics. SBB differs substantially from traditional budgeting models that primarily allocate resources to schools as FTEs. • School-based leadership teams can engage community stakeholders to develop and tailor their budgets to support their school improvement strategy. • SBB lays a sound foundation for improvement, but it is not a panacea. • Forces examination of current funding levels and standards • Requires thoughtful planning for resource allocation and flexibility • Creates the ability to enable equitable allocation, strategic resource use, and school empowerment

  11. Why SBB? Student Based Budgeting (SBB) distributes funding to schools based on students’ needs and characteristics. SBB differs substantially from traditional budgeting models that primarily allocate resources to schools as FTEs. SBB will enable schools with: • More scheduling flexibility within the systems guidelines • Staffing plans to meet their vision • Differentiated instruction • Content experts matched to student needs SBB will improve the budget process • Fund schools more equitably based on student characteristics • Give principals more budgeting flexibility • Provide schools with support and training Prince George’s County Public Schools

Starting in 2012-13, schools will start making more choices But instead of staffing allocations, each school will use SBB funds to purchase its blend of: • Administrative staff • Supporting personnel • Classroom teachers • ESOL teachers • Discretionary funds • Materials and supplies • School-based professional development • Administrative allotment Schools will still receive certain staff and funds from central office as they have in the past, which includes: • Other teachers (Art, PE, etc.) Elementary – K-8 only • Specialty Programs • Special Education • Title I • Grants • Food services, maintenance, cleaners, security, health • Utilities Prince George’s County Public Schools
