High Quality Instruction

Early Warning Indicators

Using the data below, describe all intervention strategies employed by the school to improve the academic performance of students identified by the early warning system.

Data is collected monthly via Common Formative Assessments in each grade level and subject area in order to determine mastery of standards.  Teachers also perform weekly "check outs" which are informal assessments and/or summaries of the lesson to ensure progression toward the learning goal.  In addition, teachers are having data chats with students individually.  Teachers discuss all this student data in their professional learning communities (PLCs) when planning lessons collaboratively. 
 
Teachers provide multiple means of representation by using the online textbooks in addition to the hard copies.  Many classrooms are equipped with technology such as laptop carts, Recordexs, Promethean boards, and interactive response systems.  In addition, we have district support facilitators that are training teachers on how to differentiate the ways that students can express what they know.
 
The core materials utilized are: Go-Math textbook for mathematics, Collections textbook for ELA, Florida Civics textbook for civics and Stemscopes textbook for science. Remediation resources are provided for students who have not mastered benchmarks. iReady is an example of a remediation resource that is used in mathematics and ELA. Easy CBM is used for interventions as well as district SharePoint resources. Teachers have implemented the CARE model to provide additional academic support.
 
The ELA coach and the math teacher support the lowest quartile and schedule students appropriately.  In addition, support facilitators push in to classrooms to assist struggling students.  Those students are also encouraged to attend morning tutoring as well as Saturday camps in the Spring. The guidance team provides individual counseling and include students in the RtI process when neededIn addition, students who are identified by the early warning system are enrolled in the PASL program where they are given extra resources and support for their core curriculum.

Absences of 10% or more days.
Tier 1 – Universal Prevention
Our school will a positive school climate by providing an environment that is safe, inclusive, and engaging to encourage attendance. Additionally, we will have attendance campaigns school wide that celebrate good attendance with incentives. Our incentives will be our ICU which is a ticket students receive for good behaviors that are redeemed at our school store for snacks. We also will engage our our families with communication about school activity involvement.
 
Tier 2 – Targeted Early Intervention
New River will use data such as attendance, behavior and grades to find students that are at risk early in the school year. Furthermore, we have mentor groups such as the 5000 Roles of Excellence for males to provide mentoring that build relationships and accountability. When students are absent 3 or more times our school will send messages to families about the attendance patterns. Our attendance team consists of the SAC Chair, School family counselor and spiring leaders that will meet regularly to set goals and track attendance.
 
Tier 3 – Intensive Individualized Support
 
To assist with students that are habitually absent our counselors will facilitate discussions with students and families to identify barriers and co create solutions. We will also collaborate with social services, housing and health agencies to manage cases of habitual attendance.
 
ELA and Math Course Failures and Level 1 on statewide ELA and Math assessments.
 
Our school provides Foundation Math as an extra math class to assist students that have failed a math course and or earned a level 1 or 2 on the Math FAST. The Foundation Math provides remediation on math benchmarks with mini assessments to monitor the progress of the students. Additionally, we offer pull out tutoring and Saturday school tutoring to assist students in that category.
Students that are failing ELA and or earned a level 1 on the FAST ELA are enrolled in Reading classes that focus on area of need standards. Their progress is also monitored with mini assessments and Common Formative assessments. In addition, those students are also provided with pullout tutoring and Saturday tutoring to assist with their progress.
