Our Plan

Our Turnaround Action Plan is a conscientious approach to change that puts students first.

Created with input from the community, our plan is inspired by Three Pillars and a Foundational Principle of Efficient District Systems that are fundamental to our approach to transformation.

ENGAGED COMMUNITIES

Schools will be welcoming, and students and families will have a voice in their child’s education.

EXCELLENCE IN LEARNING

All Providence schools will be high-quality, and all students will be offered academically rich opportunities regardless of their unique learning needs.

WORLD-CLASS TALENT

Students grow and thrive when led by world-class teachers. Teachers grow and thrive when led by world-class school leaders.

EFFICIENT DISTRICT SYSTEMS

A modern, engaged central office that puts students and families first, holds schools accountable for high standards, and provides schools with needed support, is the heart and soul of every high-performing local education agency.

SCORECARD AND POWER METRICS

Progress on our plan’s five-year goals will be publicly available through the PPSD Transformation Scorecard and Power Metrics.

YEAR-BY-YEAR STRATEGIES

In order to meet the charge of improving PPSD, priority initiatives have been identified during the first three years of the TAP.
