School Continuous Improvement Plan (SCIP) Summary

Title I is the largest Federal education designed to ensure that all children meet challenging state academic standards.

The school reviews academic data to make a plan for the extra help needed each year. In Saint Paul Public Schools, this plan is called the School Continuous Improvement Plan, or SCIP.

Summary Plan of Comprehensive Improvement of Como Park Senior High

The Continuous Improvement Plan (SCIP for its acronym in English) of CPSHS’s for the 2024-2025 school year was developed thanks to the views of the leadership team of the school, staff, parents, and community members. The SCIP is our school improvement process that sets the course to follow during the year and guide our actions related to our academic school and equity goals. The SCIP also identifies strategies related to Title I and Family Involvement. You can find our full SCIP here.
