2019 -20 Comprehensive Educational Plan (CEP)
What is the CEP?
The Comprehensive Educational Plan (CEP) is the primary document for sharing a school’s ongoing improvement planning efforts. SLTs are required to develop an annual school CEP that is within the limits of the school-based budget and includes goals and objectives that meet the needs of the students and the school’s accountability status requirements.
The Comprehensive Educational Plan is meant to be a tool to guide continuous improvement planning–to support schools in engaging their staff, parents, students, and community partners in identifying and ranking school needs; setting measurable improvement goals; selecting appropriate strategies to improve student academic performance; monitoring progress toward meeting annual goals; and communicating these efforts to the broader school community.

PS 39 CEP Goals:
ELA Goal:
Aligns to the Instructional Leadership Framework focus on Strengthening Core Instruction and Knowing Every Student Well
By June of 2020, students in kindergarten through grade 5 will show increased levels of proficiency on the NYS ELA exam by 2% for all students, and by 4% for students with disabilities and English language learners compared to the 2019 NYS ELA results.
Math Goal:

Social and Emotional Literacy Goal
Aligns to the Instructional Leadership Framework focus on Using a Shared and Inclusive Curriculum
By June 2020, we will continue to strengthen our school-wide initiative for social-emotional literacy through building capacity with the Morningside Center’s 4Rs Program, the RULER Approach and mindfulness-based skills aligned to CASEL’s Five Core Competencies. We will see school-wide improvement through the reduction of infractions of A24 of the NYCDOE Discipline Code due to students using self-regulating strategies, meta-moments, and restorative practice to resolve conflicts and build community in the classroom, across the grade and school-wide.

PS 39 Vision Design Project
Last school year our SLT was dedicated to creating a Vision Statement. This vision was developed through interviews and input from our community including parents, teachers, administration, staff, students, alumni and other stakeholders in the wider community.
Our Vision Statement is designed to set a guiding purpose for what we, as a school community, aspire to achieve over the next five years.
The vision statement creation process involved:
Draft Vision Statement:
PS 39 will support collaboration, inquiry, discussion, and exploration as a means to help every learner reach their highest potential. Educators will empower students to problem solve independently. Students will critically assess their own learning and share with peers, families, and staff. All community members will engage in partnership to foster connections that nurture kind, inclusive, and socially responsible citizens. Each year, we will focus our school-wide efforts toward achieving this vision as a community.

The vision statement creation process involved:
- empathy interviews with a wide variety of stakeholders conducted by our SLT members
- identifying themes and recurring important ideas from these interviews
- using these themes/ideas to design a draft vision statement
