BOARD OF EDUCATION OF CHARLES COUNTY AGENDA ITEM
SUBJECT FY 2017 Educational Facilities Master Plan (EFMP) OVERVIEW The EFMP is the first step in the state's school construction program process that leads to the development and approval of a state supported Capital Improvements Program (CIP). Revisions to the EFMP are submitted annually to the Maryland Department of Planning by July 1. This plan is an “identification of needs document.” The CIP is developed later in the fall of each year and addresses these needs with careful consideration to project costs and affordability discussions with county government. BUDGET IMPLICATIONS The EFMP is used to develop and prioritize both the state and local CIP. Funding consideration by the Interagency Committee on School Construction will be given to a local board's CIP only if a current EFMP is on file. STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED To ensure our system's facilities’ needs are objectively identified for the Board of Education’s (BOE) programming consideration, central office and local government staffs assisted in the development and refinement of the EFMP documents. DESCRIPTION A synopsis of the required elements of the EFMP is included with this plan (attachment). Careful consideration was given to the long standing dialogue between the County Commissioners and the BOE relating to the Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance, and the responsiveness of the CIP to the county’s growth within the state and local anticipated revenues. The focus of the EFMP is reflected in the proposed project schedule along with the systemic renovations plan. This year’s update follows our normal review of maintenance records, systems normal life expectancy records, and growth in the county; but also includes consideration of the new System Wide Capital Improvements Program (educational survey and assessment by GWWO Architects). RECOMMENDATION/FUTURE DIRECTION That the BOE accept and approve the EFMP for FY 2017, as a working document, which will be submitted to the state by July 1, 2016.

FY 2017 EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES MASTER PLAN SYNOPSIS
The Educational Facilities Master Plan (EFMP) is the first of three phases in the state's public school construction program - the programming phase. With Interagency Committee on School Construction approval, the EFMP will serve as the basis for the state's capital improvements program. The preparation of this year's plan considers evolving planning data, identified through the ongoing collaboration by central office staff and county staff, ensuring careful consideration of the Board of Education (BOE) and the County Commissioners’ recommendations for future planning efforts. The plan excerpts listed below (elements of a more detailed document) outline the following changes as contrasted with last year's plan:
Goals, Standards and Guidelines Section - Updated to reflect changes that have occurred over the last year and updated with new information from the various departments.
New Enrollment Data - Includes new projected enrollment and redistricting data on
which all subsequent analysis has been based.
Facilities’ Needs Analysis - A major component focusing on future planning efforts in one composite document. This section includes: Project Schedule - Graphically displays the suggested planning and construction
programming for renovations and required new capacity. New capacity requirements are drawn from an analysis of area step charts by school level included with this report. The step charts on pages 16 – 18 depict projected enrollment as developed by our school system staff and approved by the Maryland Department of Planning in May 2016.
Systemic Renovations – The report includes a section that formalizes the tie with the
Comprehensive Maintenance Plan as it impacts systemic renovations, bringing planning and programming consideration before the BOE on a yearly basis.

GOALS, STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES
Each school district in the State of Maryland prepares an annual Educational Facilities Master
Plan (EFMP) in order to receive funds from the state’s public school construction program.
Funds for specific schools are approved annually through the Capital Improvements Program
(CIP). The EFMP presents school resources and identifies needs; the subsequent CIP responds
to the identified needs by funding specific capital projects.
The state requires that each EFMP include a section on goals, standards and guidelines and
identifies eight policy areas to be addressed. Information for Charles County Public Schools
follows below.
A. GRADE ORGANIZATION PATTERN
Public schools in Charles County are organized into three levels: elementary schools
are from pre-K through grade 5; middle schools are grades 6 through 8; and high schools
are grades 9 through 12. The Stethem Educational Center houses alternative programs
for students at the middle and high school levels. At the six Title I schools a three-year
old full day program is also offered. The F.B. Gwynn Center houses programs serving
students from infants and toddlers through middle school.
Adult Education Services is comprised of several programs at the Lifelong Learning
Center, including the National External Diploma Program®, and is currently located
at the Robert D. Stethem Educational Center in Pomfret, as well as schools in the
Waldorf area. The National External Diploma Program® at the Lifelong Learning
Center is an alternative to the GED® exam based on skills achieved through life
experiences. The Lifelong Learning Center has several programs for adults, including
adult basic education, family literacy, GED® preparation, English language civics
classes, and English as a second language classes. Off-site classes include GED®,
NEDP®, Adult Basic Education, and ESL at John Hanson Middle School; ESL at two
Judy Centers/Title I school, ESL and GED® preparation at the County Detention
Center, and a GED® to college transition class at the College of Southern Maryland.
Six elementary schools (six school-wide) house Title I programs for three-year olds (C.
Paul Barnhart, Mt. Hope/Nanjemoy, Indian Head, J. P. Ryon, Dr. Samuel Mudd, and
Eva Turner).
B. STUDENT STAFFING RATIOS
A low student-teacher ratio provides a more individualized instructional program.
Presently, Charles County Public Schools average 25 pupils or less for every one
1
teacher. In addition to classroom teachers, other professionals staff the system’s pre-
school, library, guidance, reading, special education, and gifted education programs.
Itinerant staff is deployed on an as-needed basis including pupil personnel workers,
school psychologists, speech therapists, nursing personnel, and special education
specialists. Specific program needs may also impact student-teacher ratios such as
recent initiatives in reading, high school assessments, state testing, and the three-year
old program.
C. TRANSPORTATION POLICIES
The transportation department operates a safe, efficient and reliable bus service with a
policy to hold busing to a minimum in terms of time and distance. Every effort is made
to keep student travel times less than one hour, especially in the rural areas of the
county. As development occurs, bus routes may change in order to meet the growing
number of students in current subdivisions and from new developments.
D. ATTENDANCE ZONES AND REDISTRICTING POLICIES
Each school has a geographically-based attendance area or zone. Students living within
a zone attend the designated school with certain exceptions for children attending
special education programs or other designated exceptions. A transportation link on
the school system’s website (www.ccboe.com) identifies the appropriate attendance
zone upon entry of a street address.
Changing enrollment patterns and the opening of new schools cause redistricting.
School enrollment boundaries are adjusted in order to promote uniform and efficient
use of school facilities and resources. The redistricting policy, adopted in 1997 and
amended in 2012, requires staff to annually review enrollment data of individual
schools. When a boundary line adjustment becomes necessary, the Superintendent
establishes an advisory committee on redistricting. The factors reviewed during
redistricting include:
school capacity
impact on educational program quality
student enrollment trends
age or condition of buildings
transportation
impact on the community
limiting movement in elementary/middle schools to once in three years
limiting movement after enrollment in ninth grade.
2
The redistricting committee develops two proposals and holds at least one public
hearing. From the committee’s report and initial public input, the Superintendent
presents a redistricting proposal to the Board of Education. The Board holds at least
one public hearing on the Superintendent's redistricting proposal. The final decision
is made by the Board with at least 90 days’ notice prior to implementation. There were
no school boundary changes during the 2015-2016 school year.
E. GIFTED EDUCATION SERVICES
Gifted education provides advanced academic experiences for students who perform or
show the potential to perform at high levels of accomplishment. A learning resource
teacher who works directly with the gifted education program is part of the
instructional leadership team at each elementary and middle school, sharing an office
with the instructional specialist/math resource teacher and reading resource teacher.
Students identified for gifted services in reading/language arts and mathematics work
with the learning resource teacher in the classroom and in small group settings. In
addition, the learning resource teacher collaborates with classroom teachers and
provides staff development for small and large groups.
F. SPECIAL EDUCATION
Special education is customized at each grade level through the Individualized
Education Program (IEP) process with the focus of keeping students in regular
classroom settings. Every school has an IEP room or office for testing, meetings, and
services, where confidential student files are centralized.
Special Education services for preschool age students are delivered in a variety of ways
and are determined by the needs of the students and their families. Many of our
students attend Preschool Special Education Programs that are located in most
elementary schools; these programs include a strong philosophy and a co-teaching
model.
Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder at the elementary school are served through
the Multiple Intensity Teaching (MIT) program. This is a regionalized program
designed to address the academic, social, and behavioral needs of students with severe
communication and behavior disorders. The program serves students beginning at age
three and ending at fourth grade. The classrooms operate using the principles of an
applied behavior analysis model. Students learn skills necessary to function
independently across academic, social, and behavior domains. Students in grades
kindergarten through fourth grade are provided with inclusion opportunities as
3
specified in their IEP. Placement in MIT is determined by the student’s IEP team.
Students at the secondary level are currently provided academic, social, and behavioral
support through the use of autism resource teachers. The teachers provide professional
development for school-based staff in best practices regarding the instruction of
students with autism spectrum disorders.
The Emotional Adjustment Program (EAP) is a highly structured, self-contained
therapeutic program with mainstreaming opportunities for those students who have
difficulty accessing the academic curriculum in the general education setting due to
emotional/behavioral dysregulation. The program is regionalized with school sites at
the elementary, middle, and high school settings. The program provides students with
academic, behavior, and psychological services support for the acquisition of essential
self-regulatory, social, and academic skills. The program continues to support those
students who are able to maintain appropriate behavior as they return to the
mainstream setting. Ultimately, these therapeutic supports are intended to assist the
student in achieving emotional/behavioral stability and academic success without the
need for such extensive supports.
The Life Skills Program provides an alternate curriculum at each grade level for
students with moderate, severe, or profound disabilities. Functional academics,
communications, decision-making skills, and behavior modifications are addressed.
Instruction is community-based in that students work on their IEP goals in community
settings. Within the school setting, students are included with non-disabled peers in
both instructional and social activities.
Transition Academic Adaptive Skills Classes (TAASC) meet the needs of students ages
5-18 with moderate disabilities who require an instructional program designed to
develop skills essential to achieving the highest level of independent functioning in
academics, daily living, work, and community access. Each student’s IEP drives
instruction.
IEP goals and objectives are developed in the following areas:
Academics: the development of math, reading, and writing skills to develop
proficiency with grade level standards.
Personal Management: the development of skills in the areas of personal
hygiene, independent living, and time management.
Community Access: the development of skills in the areas of transportation,
utilization of stores and services, and appropriate integration into the
school/community.
Communication: the development of skills in the areas of receptive and
expressive communication, social interactions, and making choices.
4
Socialization: the development of skills in the areas of interactions with peers
and adults in one-on-one, group, and community settings.
All classes are located in elementary, middle, and high schools within the county, thus
ensuring that students are educated within the least restricted environment. Each
student will be regularly included with their same age peers in daily activities and
instruction, as appropriate.
Some students in the TAASC program pursue a certificate of completion upon
graduation from high school; however, most students will pursue a high school
diploma. These students must fulfill all graduation requirements as determined by the
Maryland State Department of Education and Charles County Public Schools.
Formal transition planning from school to adult life begins when students are 14 years
old. These plans are refined as students get older and school and community based
vocational experiences are provided to students in high school classes, as appropriate.
During the 2015-2016 school year, TAASC programs were held in 14 elementary
schools, 4 middle schools, 2 high schools, and at the F.B. Gwynn Center.
G. CAREER AND TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION
Career and Technology Education (CTE) prepares students for a wide range of careers
through programs that promote both academic and technical achievement. Students
enrolled in CTE program courses can enter careers that require varying levels of
education: high school diplomas, post-secondary certificates, apprenticeships, military
service, or college degrees. Additionally, CTE Programs of Study provide opportunities
to earn industry-recognized credentials and college credit while still in high school.
Students learn skills and develop attitudes that support career employment, college
readiness, and life-long learning.
Business Education courses provide students with opportunities to acquire business
knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to function effectively in many career
pathways. The foundation and advanced course sequence support continuing education
in business administration, management, finance and marketing. Learning experiences
are designed to support critical thinking skills and effective communication.

to make informed decisions. The courses cover a wide variety of financial literacy
topics such as credit card usage, credit scores and reports, buying a car, preparing a
budget, checking and savings accounts, investing, and income considerations. All
freshmen entering high school in 2011 and beyond must earn one credit in financial
literacy.
Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (JROTC) is a service specific student leadership
program that instills the values of citizenship, community service, personal
responsibility, character, and self-discipline. Air Force, Army or Navy (Sea Service-
Navy, Marine, and Coast Guard) programs are offered at each high school. The
programs are staffed with a minimum of one retired officer and one retired
noncommissioned officer.
Technology Education is a comprehensive experienced-based curriculum based on the
Maryland State Technology Education Standards. The Foundations of Technology
course, offered at all high schools is a graduation requirement. Advanced technology
education courses are also available for students interested in this subject matter.
Students are taught technological literacy by exploring the ways in which ingenuity,
processes, materials, devices, science, and mathematics are applied to solving practical
and perennial problems of a designed world. Laboratory activities include the safe use
of tools, machines, and materials.

with these efforts. Counselors work with parents, administrators, teachers and
community resources to provide the best educational experiences for students.
School health service nurses update, maintain and implement medical plans for
medically fragile students, administer medications, review immunization records and
provide medical response for illness and injuries as needs arise for students and staff.
Vision and hearing technicians regularly screen students and re-screen upon requests
from parents or teachers.
Certified school psychologists provide crisis intervention, counseling for students and
groups of students, individual risk assessments, psychological assessments and
consultations with teachers, parents and administrators. This includes referrals to, and
consultations with, appropriate community agencies and professionals.
Pupil personnel workers act as liaisons between home, school and the community.
They investigate residence concerns and assist with attendance, behavior, enrollment,
and homeless issues.
Court liaisons work with the courts, Juvenile Services Department and the school
system to appropriately and effectively meet students' needs.
School Probation Officers (SPO’s) are employed by Department of Juvenile Services to
serve as mentors. They primarily work with students placed on probation by the court.
They devote time and attention to these and other students serving as positive role
models in prevention and early intervention programs.
School Resource Officers (SRO) are sworn police officers from the Sheriff’s Office. An
officer is assigned to each middle and high schools. Service is provided to elementary
schools as needed. When requested by the school, the SRO’s serves as mentors to the
12
students and as consultants to the school administration and staff. They provide school
and personnel safety programs, teach DARE classes, counsel individual students, work
with parents, and carry out normal police duties when called upon to do so.
I. SCHOOL CLOSING PROCEDURES
Charles County Public Schools provide high quality education at an efficient and cost
effective level through an optimum use of facilities. The local growth rate is an added
challenge to this policy; whereas the closing of schools is a lesser demand. School
closings comply with state regulations (COMAR 13A.02.09). The Superintendent
appoints a standing committee to review population patterns and other factors bearing
on school operations. The analysis includes:
educational program quality
student enrollment trends
student body racial composition
age or condition of schools
means of transportation
student relocations
financial projections and economic costs
community impact of school closings
impacts to schools at other levels
Based on each school’s assessment, the committee submits recommendations to the
Superintendent, which could include school closures. From the committee’s
recommendations, the Superintendent develops alternatives for review by the Board of
Education. If a school closure is included, the Board holds a public hearing on both the
proposed closure and alternatives. The decision to close a school rests with the Board.
As with redistricting actions, a minimum of 90-days public notice is provided prior to
implementation to ensure orderly transitions.
J. CONCLUSION
The goals, standards and guidelines established for the Charles County Public Schools
system fulfill the stated mission of the Board of Education, which is to provide an
opportunity for all school-aged children to receive an academically challenging, quality
education that builds character, equips for leadership and prepares for life, in an
environment that is safe and conducive to learning.
