I. SCHOOL DESCRIPTION
A. Mission Statement
Meridian Public Charter School seeks to give each child the foundation of basic skills they need to succeed in today’s world, while at the same time stimulating each child to learn, explore and develop their own special talents. The mission of the Meridian Public Charter School is to instill within our students a passion for learning, self-confidence, and self-respect through academic achievement.
B. School Program Grade/Age Levels During the 2011-2012 school year, Meridian served 531 students in Pre-K3 through grade eight. Curriculum The teachers at the Meridian Public Charter School use the District of Columbia Learning Standards to educate the students under their supervision. The Houghton Mifflin Reading program and Everyday mathematics program are used to teach the standards. The Everyday Mathematics Program is supplemented by Houghton Mifflin Mathematics. Language Arts/Reading: Elementary students have a daily literacy block of 120 minutes so that students develop the core competencies of reading and writing. Effective literacy skills are central to student learning. Our curriculum weaves the core literacy skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking, and viewing and presenting across all disciplines. Communication skills and strategies are intertwined with content strands and concepts to help students see the connections among people and disciplines. Meridian adopted standards based balanced literacy approach premised on the strategies recommended by the research of Dr. Richard Allington, Dr. Dorothy Strickland, Dr. Robert Slavin, Dr. Judith A. Langer and Dr. Sally Shayitz. The literature on research based instruction focuses on a combination of phonemic awareness, whole language, decoding and encoding, critical thinking and higher-level comprehension skills. Whole group teaching, integrated instruction, differentiated grouping and guided reading will all be used as processes to improve reading instruction. Special programs are provided for special education and English Language Learners using research-based strategies geared to special needs students. These include cooperative grouping, multiple learning styles and multiple intelligences. The delivery of these strategies is facilitated by the use of the Houghton Mifflin Nation’s Choice reading program and augmented by the Learning Station software for corrective and remedial instruction. Through the integration of research, best teaching practices and advances in technology, the curriculum is able to successfully meet the state and national benchmarks and standards and to implement developmentally appropriate practices for our students Pre-K-8.
9
The Middle school grades (6-8) uses Holt’s Elements of Literature reading program to facilitate the standards based curriculum. Holt is thematically linked to informational texts to ensure mastery of all skills and concepts, provides differentiated instruction with special accommodations for all students so that those who struggle can master the grade-level skills and those who excel can be challenged, uses assessment tools that show where the students stand in relation to skills and standard mastery and where to direct them for remediation or enrichment and provides intervention materials for English-Language Learners, Special Education students and students reading significantly below grade level. Students at all grade levels are immersed in language. Their classrooms will be text-rich environments with student work displayed, word walls, and classroom libraries centers. For grades Pre-K – 8, classroom libraries will strive to have 25 books per student including leveled books, Caldecott and Newberry award literature, multiple genres, and reference materials. Math: Developments over the past 20 years have led to a tremendous increase in the importance of mathematics in a growing number of occupations, and in daily life. As a result, the goal of achieving mathematical literacy for all citizens has become a national priority. By today's definition, mathematical literacy means that adults need to have a range of sophisticated mathematical knowledge and skills that extends far beyond basic calculation skills. Meridian’s curriculum encourages teachers and students to go beyond arithmetic--to explore more of the mathematics spectrum by investigating data gathering and analysis, probability, geometry, patterns, and algebra. Mathematics is integrated into other subject areas and becomes part of the ongoing classroom routines, outdoor play, and the spare transitional moments that occur every day.
The curriculum emphasizes the application of mathematics to real world situations. Numbers, skills and mathematical concepts are not presented in isolation, but are linked to situations and contexts that are relevant to everyday lives. The curriculum also provides numerous suggestions for incorporating mathematics into daily classroom routines and other subject areas. Lessons include time for whole-group instruction as well as small group, partner, or individual activities. These activities balance teacher-directed instruction with opportunities for open-ended, hands-on explorations, long-term projects and on-going practice. Students are encouraged to explain and discuss their mathematical thinking, in their own words. Opportunities to verbalize their thoughts and strategies give children the chance to clarify their thinking and gain insights from others.
Meridian PCS uses Houghton Mifflin for Pre-K – 5 and Glencoe Mathematics as a part of our restructuring plan. Both curricula are based on the NCTM standards, seek to develop student’s mastery of content and process, and develop teachers’ subject-specific expertise
10
Social Studies: Meridian uses the Macmillian/McGraw Hill Social Studies program for grades K-5 and Glencoe for grades 6-8. Both programs are research and standards based. Each program ensures student success in the following ways: 1.) reading supports strengthens student understanding of social studies content; 2.) content is relevant, accurate and correlated to the National Council for the Social Studies Standards; 3.) citizenship skills are taught throughout the program using real-life examples; and 4.) assessment is ongoing to guide instruction. Each program contains specific strategies to meet the need of EL learners and students with special needs. Science: Meridian uses the McGraw Hill Science program for grades K-5 and the Harcourt Science program for grades 6-8. Both are based on National Science Education standards and are research-based programs. Meridian uses each program to provide children with opportunities to investigate the natural world, learn about interesting, relevant and exciting ideas and understand the link between science all other aspects of the elementary curriculum. Each program is based on the following principles of scientific literacy: 1.) all children can investigate and learn science concepts and can experience success in science; 2.) children must develop knowledge of and the ability to use tools and processes of scientific inquiry; 3.) children experience success in science when they develop age-appropriate knowledge and understanding of the life, earth, and physical sciences and when they learn about the history and nature of science; 4.) science content should be presented to children in an interesting, comprehensible, and clearly organized format; and 5.) children’s competence in the concepts and processes of science should be assessed through a variety of tools that are consistent, authentic and fair. The products also contain specific materials for EL learners and students with special needs. We are also planning to purchase experiment kits for each grade level
Direct Instruction: Teachers will utilize the Madeline Hunter Model Seven Step Process as a shell for lesson planning and unit planning.

The Meridian academic program is an English language-based immersion program. The school uses a full inclusion model for students with special needs. During the 2010-2011 school year, special education teachers provided a continuum of services from in class support to pull out services. The teachers received ongoing professional develop to aid in the implementation of inclusion, including modifications to student work and instructional practices.

Description of key mission-related programs Meridian has an array of unique programs to ensure the success of each of our students. Brief descriptions of the programs are listed below. Core Academic Program Meridian Public Charter School utilizes the District of Columbia Academic Standards to determine the academic levels to which students are taught and assessed. At the start of the 2005-2006 school year, the District of Columbia introduced revised, more challenging learning standards throughout the educational system. The academic standards are descriptions of what students should comprehend in order to be deemed proficient in a particular area of study. These standards are uniform in order to set high expectations for each student and teacher throughout the educational system. In addition to having strong academic standards, Meridian Public Charter School utilizes textbooks which have been aligned to the District of Columbia Standards. Curriculum frameworks and curriculum mapping have also been established to translate the knowledge and skills described in the standards into clear, specific guidance for the teachers. Teachers also use the District of Columbia common core standards and performance level descriptors to drive instruction. Meridian Public Charter School students, along with all District of Columbia Public Schools, will be administered the District of Columbia Comprehensive Assessment System. This standardized assessment is the major tool used to measure students’ progress towards achieving proficient performance relative to the District of Columbia’s academic content standards. Students at Meridian will also take the Stanford Achievement Test as an additional standardized assessment and academic achievement tool. Curriculum/Academic Texts Meridian Public Charter School uses the Houghton Mifflin Reading program in the Early Childhood Unit–grade five and the Holt Elements of Literature program in grades six-eight, to guide instruction in Reading/Language Arts. These standards based programs focus on language development, informational text and literary text skills. Meridian uses the Everyday Mathematics program in conjunction with the Houghton Mifflin Mathematics program in E.C.U-grade five and the Connected Mathematics program in conjunction with the Glencoe Mathematics program in grades six-eight to guide Mathematics instruction. These standards based programs focus on number sense, operations, patterns, relations, algebra, geometry, measurement, data analysis, statistics and probability. Meridian uses the Write Source writing program in grades one-eight, the Harcourt Science and Harcourt Brace Social Studies programs in Kindergarten-grade five, the Glencoe Science
12
program in grades six-eight, the Glencoe Social Studies program in grade 6 and the Prentice Hall Social Studies program in grades seven-eight. All of these programs have been specifically selected to meet the academic needs of Meridian students. In addition to the core subjects emphasized at Meridian Public Charter School, the students study several special subject areas including Art, Media/Technology, Music, Physical Education/Health and Spanish. These special area courses are aligned to standards which are based on the District of Columbia Standards and the National Standards in each respective area of study and instruction. Although all special subject areas are implemented into cross curricular activities, technology specifically is woven into the daily activities and academic coursework of each class. Each classroom is equipped with internet accessible computers in addition to a fully functioning computer center located in the library. The technology performance standards include basic operations, keyboarding, applications, information literacy, problem solving, ethical/legal issues, vocabulary, word processing, spreadsheets, career awareness, internet usage, multimedia processes, graphic programs, telecommunications and creating a database. The technology performance standards support the core subject academic needs of the students. Camp Love 2 Read Camp Love 2 Read is a program designed for all students who attended Meridian during the year. The program focuses on Reading, Language Arts, and Math computation and problem solving. The program is held for six weeks in the summer. On the Rise 3, 4 & 5 On the Rise focuses on identified students in grades 3, 4 and 5 who scored at the basic level on the spring DC CAS test. The tutorial provides intensive remedial and grade level instruction in the areas of reading and mathematics. This primary support in conjunction with the daily instruction is held weekly, Tuesday through Thursday from 3:30pm – 5:30pm. Day 6 Academy Day 6 Academy focuses on students in grades 6, 7 and 8 who scored at the basic level on the spring DCCAS test. The tutorial provides intensive remedial and grade level instruction in the areas of reading and mathematics.

Parent Involvement Efforts MPCS believes that the relationship between home and school is key to student success. MPCS has a full time Parent Center that serves as a hub of the school’s parental involvement. The Parent Center strives to increase parental involvement at MPCS and to improve the quality of parental involvement. The Parent Center is an open resource for MPCS parents and it offers numerous programs, free of charge. For the 2011-2012 academic year, ESL
(Tuesday & Thursday from 1:30-3:30pm) and Spanish Literacy (Tuesday & Thursday from 8:30-10:30am) classes were offered at the Parent Center. Furthermore, five different workshops were offered by the Parent Center. Each workshop covered important topics to help parents support the academic and social needs of their students.
Resume Building Workshop
Participants learned the purpose and objective of a resume and cover letter. Furthermore, participants received a sample of diverse types of resume. Participants had the opportunity to create their own resume and cover letter with the assistance of the Parent Center staff. Interviewing strategies were also discussed during the workshop.
Healthy Eating Habits Workshop
This workshop was based on the Let’s Move! Curriculum on Healthy Eating Habits. Participants learned facts on obesity in America, the possible emotional/physical/social/cognitive risks associated with obesity. Participants also received steps, suggestions, and strategies of how to increase healthy eating habits and physical activity.
Behavior Management Workshop
This workshop was conducted by the school Mental Clinician and addressed various concerns participants had in terms of classroom/home behavior, discipline management, etc.

Meridian teachers were present to provide assistance and encouragement to the participants.
Other Parent Center events and activities:
Parent Center Book Fair
The Parent Center Book Fair was organized by the Parent Center to encourage parents to actively read to their students. Used and new books donated by the Meridian community members were displayed in the Parent Center for a week for parents to take home.
DC Council Budget Hearing
The Parent Center was actively involved in various DC Council Budget hearings at the Wilson Building to address the unequal facility funding between DCPS and DCPCS.
Recipient of Parental Engagement Grant
The Parent Center received the Parental Engagement Grant Program from the D.C. Parent Information Resource Center (DC PIRC) at the Multicultural Community Service (MCS) Parental Engagement Grant Program. The funds received from this grant were utilized to encourage parents to participate in classroom fieldtrips by covering and exempting parents from the transportation and/or entrance fees. This grant helped increase the number of parents completing their volunteer requirements. Twelve percent more parents completed their volunteer hours compared to the 2010-2011 academic year.
“TOGETHER FOR SUCCESS”
Meridian Public Charter School’s TOGETHER FOR SUCCESS program is a program
designed to help ease communication between Meridian parents and the school as
well as heighten the sense of Meridian community. Each classroom will have two
parents/guardians serving as the Classroom Representatives.

Activities, Strategies and Interventions
Teacher Quality, Instructional Best Practices and Professional Development
Meridian Public Charter School manages teacher quality through instructional coaching, professional
development and evaluation. Lead by the Dean of Academics, Instructional Coaches complete
classroom observations to determine teacher strengths, weaknesses, areas of improvement and areas
where a staff member may be stagnant. Teachers are given a written observation in addition to
planning sessions or meetings. Instructional Coaches also design and implement professional
development plans for staff members, geared towards improving standards based and data driven
instruction, effective lesson planning and the organization of the classroom environment. This may
include model teaching, co-teaching, peer observations or external professional development
activities.
Meridian maintains a comprehensive professional development schedule for all instructional staff.
Typically, one week of intensive professional development occurs prior to the start of the school year
and continues throughout the academic year. Professional development is offered during horizontal
and vertical planning sessions, in addition to weekly staff meetings and Teacher Excellence Academy
sessions. In accordance with needs based professional development plans, staff members are
required to attend specific research based external professional development workshops. During the
school year, Meridian offers over 180 hours of in-house training and professional development
opportunities. It is Meridian’s goal to have staff exposed to additional external professional
development and training programs. Each staff member is required to document 14 professional
development hours obtained externally. Acceptable documentation includes a certificate of
completion, an agenda or a session description from the training. 7 hours must be obtained by the end
of the 1st Advisory Period and the remaining hours must be obtained by the end of the 2nd Advisory
Period. Credit hours, for advanced coursework, may be included. Each “seat hour” counts for one
hour of external professional development. Meridian offers 50% tuition reimbursement for all
instruction based coursework, with an annual cap for each staff member. All hours must be approved
by appropriate personnel, prior to registration. A professional development log for external hours
should be maintained in each staff member’s portfolio.
The Instructional staff is evaluated by the Dean of Academics and the Principal, utilizing an adapted
version of the Praxis III Classroom Performance Assessment. The evaluation rubric is points based
encompassing the organization of instructional content, the classroom environment, instructional best
practices, professionalism, and student achievement. Evaluation results determine additional
training to be identified on each teacher’s professional development plan. Outcomes from
professional development plan implementation are regularly monitored, updated and reviewed.
22
Data Driven Instruction
Student growth and achievement is primarily monitored utilizing DC CAS data, Stanford
Achievement Test data and the Brigance Inventory of Early Development. Several text based and
teacher generated assessments are also monitored regularly in addition to the Scantron Achievement
Series benchmark assessment.
The DCCAS measures student achievement and student progress is measured year to year. 3rd-8th
grade students are administered the Reading and Mathematics components of the DC CAS in the
spring. 4th and 7th grade students are also administered a Science assessment and 5th and 8th grade
students are administered an additional Writing assessment. DC CAS data is desegregated by
subject, grade level, teacher, gender, ethnicity, economic status, Special Education status, English
Language Learners status, and student achievement levels. Students and subgroups scoring at the
advanced and proficient levels are identified and the data is reviewed to determine best practiced
utilized which resulted in student success. Varying factors are weighed to develop future
instructional plans and best practices to maintain the achievement of those students and increase the
proficiency levels of the remaining students. Students and subgroups scoring at the basic and below
basic levels are identified and the data is utilized to complete a route cause analysis. Any negative
variables must be rectified or eliminated and positive influences or effective best practices must be
increased. Additionally, the Academic Team, Program Development Team and other pertinent
personnel will introduce any best practices not currently in use at Meridian and comprise a plan for
successful implementation. As a result, classroom instruction is differentiated and modifications are
made as needed. Students not performing at the advanced or proficient level on the DC CAS are
required to attend individualized or small group instruction during the school day, with the
designated Resource Teacher, Special Education Teacher or ELL Teacher. Those students are also
required to attend after school or Saturday school sessions, based on grade level.
The Stanford Achievement Test is administered to Kindergarten-8th grade students, in the fall and
spring, to measure student growth and achievement. Stanford Achievement Test data is
desegregated by subject, subtests, grade level, teacher, score type, norms, number tested, mean
number correct, national rankings and grade equivalent scores. In addition to the methods used by
Meridian, with the DC CAS, to track student data and drive and customize instructional plans,
Stanford Achievement Test data measures student growth for the academic school year, determining
specific areas of strength and weakness. This data is also utilized to assess the grade level progress of
each student and the instructional impact of the teachers.
The Brigance Inventory of Early Development measures academic and cognitive skills growth and
achievement in Meridian’s pre-kindergarten programs. The basic skills assessment for three year olds
evaluates students’ personal data response, color recognition, picture vocabulary, use of objects,
visual motor skills, number concepts, motor skills, identification of body parts, repetition skills and
the use of prepositions and irregular plural nouns. The basic skills assessment for four year olds
evaluates students’ personal data response, color recognition, picture vocabulary, visual
discrimination of forms and uppercase letters, visual motor skills, gross-motor skills, rote counting,
identification of body parts, following verbal directions, number concepts and syntax and fluency
23
skills. Additional teacher observations are recorded. Methods similar to that on the DC CAS and the
Stanford Achievement Test will be utilized to track student growth, achievement, drive and
customize instructional plans.
Tutoring
“3, 4 and 5 On the Rise” is a tutorial program which seeks to greatly enhance students’ skill
levels in the areas of reading and mathematics. The program is geared towards students in the
3rd, 4th and 5th grades who have been identified by assessment data as displaying deficiencies
in the subject areas outlined above. The students follow an intensive mathematics and
literacy track, Tuesday through Thursday from 3:30pm-5:30pm, at Meridian Public Charter
School. Instruction is standards based and data driven.
The “Day 6 Academy” is a tutorial program which seeks to greatly enhance students’ skill
levels in the areas of reading and mathematics. The program is geared towards students in the
6th, 7th and 8th grades who have been identified by assessment data as displaying deficiencies
in the subject areas outlined above. The students follow an intensive mathematics and
literacy track, Saturdays, from 8:30am-12:30pm, at Meridian Public Charter School.
Instruction is standards based and data driven.
B. Lesson Learned and Actions Taken
Meridian has identified a continued need to maintain a focus on student Literacy, with
a major emphasis in Special Education and ELL services. Several program changes to
monitor and provide additional resources to those students were developed. After
review, Meridian has decided to move forward with the implementation of a specific
set of research based materials, for students needing additional support. Those
materials are currently in use.
Meridian found that the use of internal assessments to monitor student growth has
proven beneficial. Although the DCCAS, Stanford Achievement Test and the Scantron
Achievement Series Assessments all provide valuable data, there are variances
between the proficiency levels achieved on each, due to the general make-up of each
assessment.
C. Unique Accomplishments
Meridian celebrated twelve years of educational service to the community Meridian began a full renovation of the Harrison Building awarded to us in the
previous year.
