Continuous Improvement Model
Continuous Improvement is a driving force for the Virginia Beach City Public Schools. The Office of Organizational Development, in conjunction with representatives from other offices and departments, developed the Continuous Improvement Model (CIM) in the spring of 2001. CIM is a model that ensures the school division’s focus on student achievement, while providing a structure for the schools to develop their individual Plans for Continuous Improvement (PCI). This model serves as the local accountability reporting format for growth toward, and the achievement and maintenance of, full accreditation by the Commonwealth of Virginia.The VBCPS believes in recognition for continuous improvement and has created the Superintendent’s Quality Award. This award was created in 1999 to recognize improvement efforts that impact the quality of learning in VBCPS. Any VBCPS employee, team, school, or team of students that submits a nomination form and meets the criteria is eligible to earn this quarterly award.In 1982 the United States Senate authorized an awards program designed to recognize excellence in organizational performance. The program, known as the United States Senate Productivity and Quality Award (SPQA), seeks to highlight the accomplishments of business, government, and non-profit organizations. Patterned after the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award (MBNQA), the SPQA award is an annual recognition of those Virginia organizations that excel in performance, quality, and customer satisfaction.Finally, all of the continuous improvement that happens in VBCPS is governed by the goals outlined in the VBCPS Strategic Plan. This plan provides an umbrella, as well as a support, for school improvement through its focus on eight areas.
