  1. Principal’s Path

Dear Members of the Quincy School Committee,

It is with great pride and pleasure that we present the North Quincy High School School Improvement Plan for the 2025-2026 school year.  At North Quincy High, we are committed to educating the whole child.  It is imperative that our students receive high-quality instruction, rigorous academic standards and individualized instruction in order to become college and career ready.  But, it is equally important that we cultivate and develop within our students the moral and ethical values that will enable them to be successful members of a democratic society and an integral part of the North Quincy High School community.  It is in a culture of tolerance, respect, inclusiveness and compassion that we push our students’ academic achievement, creativity, problem solving, and to be constantly striving toward excellence in all endeavors.  Our mission is to provide a balanced education in which we meet the academic and personal needs of all our students.  Therefore, with this mission in mind, North Quincy’s School Improvement Plan was created.

Over 2025-2026, North Quincy High will continue engaging students and families and supporting their academic needs while building a more inclusive community. We will continue to increase both teacher collaboration and instructional capacity in order to improve the academic progress of every student, as well as engage our community in a more effective manner.  Now more than ever, our students also need support in their social-emotional development.  We will continue to address our students’ social-emotional learning through a number of initiatives focusing on all of our students.  At the same time, our focus remains on effective instruction, student assessment and working hard to ensure that the curriculum we deliver to our students is aligned across each department.  As we continue the use of the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks, it is imperative that we align our curriculum, assessments, and instructional strategies to reflect the rigor, which will be required of students to become college and career ready. As we fully commit to these expectations, it is essential that all aspects of our academic program, from lesson planning to the creation of assessments, reflect these changes.  

We also fully understand the importance of engaging our families and communities.  Over the course of this year, North Quincy High School will offer several community events to accomplish this.  With these elements in mind, the goals, action steps, and professional development for the 2025-2026 school year were created.  We accept this challenge at North Quincy High School and will work tirelessly to meet the increased demand and expectations.

I am extremely proud and honored to be the Principal of North Quincy High School.  I am excited to work with a dedicated and talented staff whose first priority is our students.  I am equally thrilled to be working with students and families committed each day to try a little bit harder and learn a little bit more. Thank you for your time and consideration of North Quincy High School’s School Improvement Plan.  Your comments and feedback are most welcome.

Sincerely,

Daniel V. Gilbert


  1. Data Reflection

This year saw a decrease in our overall MCAS data; however, there is still a great deal to celebrate.  In looking at our Accountability Data for the 2025 school year, NQHS's school accountability percentile was seventy-two, meaning that our overall data placed NQHS above seventy-one percent of high schools in Massachusetts.  Our High Needs subgroup percentile was eighty-nine (better than eighty-eight percent of high schools in Massachusetts), the Low Income subgroup was ninety-four (better than ninety-three percent of high schools in Massachusetts), and our EL and Former EL subgroup was eighty-nine (better than eighty-eight percent of high schools in Massachusetts).  On the ELA MCAS, 62 percent of our students scored in the Exceeding and Meeting Expectations category as compared to fifty-one percent statewide.  Fifty-nine percent of our students scored in the Exceeding Expectations and Meeting Expectations categories on the Math MCAS as compared to forty-five percent statewide. Our Asian subgroup improved by .8 points over the previous administration.  On the Science MCAS, fifty-six percent of our students scored in the Exceeding or Meeting Expectations category as compared to the state average, which was forty-six percent.  Our language proficiency scores increased by 24 percentage points over the 2024 Accountability Data.

Student Growth Percentile for all students on the ELA test was 50.3.  Five of our subgroups’ SGPs were higher than the state average of 50. Our Lowest Performing subgroup’s SGP was 50.8, High Needs subgroup 50.5, Low Income 50.7, EL and Former EL 60.9, Asian subgroup 55.9.  SGP for all students on the Math MCAS was 57.9, which is above the state average.  Our EL and Former EL subgroup and our Asian subgroup demonstrated high growth with SGPs of 76.2 and 67, respectively.  Our High Needs subgroup (SGP 61.6), Low Income subgroup (SGP 63.1) and Lowest Performing subgroup (SGP 57.0) all exceeded the state average and fell within the High Growth range.

  1. Goals Reflection

English Department Goal:  During the 2024-2025 school year, English students will demonstrate increased proficiency when asked to infer meaning within Poetry, Vocabulary, Reading, and Language-based questions, as measured by a 3% increase of the average score of inference-related questions on the 2025 ELA MCAS (from a base of 70% in 2024 from Report IT301).  We did not meet this goal as we remained at 70%.

Math Department Goals:  The percentage of North Quincy students who score Meeting or Exceeding expectations will be at least 12% higher than the state average. Three of the four questions from the Spring 2024 MCAS with the largest School-State Difference were from Standard G-CO A and B, Geometry Congruence. This year, questions from Standard G-CO A will be at least 2% higher than the state average.  We did achieve both of these goals, scoring 14% higher than the state in the Meeting and Exceeding Expectations category and increasing 3% on the identified standard questions listed above.

Science Department Goal:  In the 2024-2025 school year, the Science Department will exceed the State Average of Biology Scores in the Meeting and Exceeding Expectations categories by 10%, as measured by the Spring 2025 Results by Achievement Level MCAS Report.  This goal was achieved.

  1. VOCAL Reflection

Our VOCAL data from the 2024 MCAS is very encouraging.  It is clear from our students’ feedback that our community consistently supports students' well-being, a sense of belonging, and a safe and academic environment in many other positive ways.  This year, NQHS will continue with our Cultural Fair to celebrate all of the different cultures at our school.  We plan to hold our Fair in March of 2026.  In doing so, we are intent on increasing student belonging and supporting our students' well-being.

Department Goal/History:  Over the course of the 2025-2026 school year, history teachers will work to increase students’ proficiency in analyzing primary source documents by explicitly teaching and practicing the HIPPO strategy (Historical context, Intended audience, Point of view, Purpose, and Outside information). Using a common department rubric, students’ average scores on document analysis will improve by at least 10% each school year compared to baseline data collected in fall 2025. Progress will be measured through three common assessments administered in fall, winter, and spring, with results shared and discussed during department meetings.

Department Goal/Student Support:  Student Support Staff will implement an updated system of helping teachers to improve our referral process and record keeping of tiered level supports to maintain the implementation of trauma-informed classroom interventions.  

Student Support Staff will collaborate with clinicians funded by the district's Opioid grant to ensure students are referred to groups, individual tiered supports and community resources.

In collaboration with Site Administration, staff will lead implementation of a curriculum geared towards the goals of building social awareness, promoting a strong sense of belonging among all students.  Agencies such as the Sandy Hook Promise, NAN, Community Agencies including QARI, Bay State, Aspire, and Walker will support the social-emotional wellness and the mental health needs of students. By May 2026 all students at NQHS will have access to tiered level supports and a documentation of these supports will be implemented during the 2025-2026 school year.
