What is the school doing to improve outcomes?

  • Maximizing Professional Learning Community (PLC) structures to enhance feedback systems that build educator capacity
  • Refining current PLC and professional development to increase frequency of student performance data meetings and the effectiveness of data-driven instruction
  • Creating a menu of Tier2 and 3 research-based approaches for both academics and behavior interventions to support the current Response to Intervention model
  • Refining and further developing a schedule that will allow for students to be flexibly moved in and out of up to three doses of treatment (targeted tutoring/support) during the school day
