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. Tier I- Teachers have identified at risk students based on review of data from the PM 1,2 and 3 from the end of the 2025 school year, including:
Tier III- Targeted interventions for student not making expected/sufficient progress with Tier II interventions (weekly small group instruction in math, weekly small group instruction in reading, school counselor biweekly checkins, general education FBA/PBIB, social work invovlement). We refer students to the child study team to identify each student's needs. |

| Evidence: Provide evidence of the implementation challenges the school encountered during the Fall semester. Describe the changes made to address these challenges. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| In the fall we have 292 students who are severely cronically absent out of 2297 students. That is approximately 11 percent of all students. We are trying to lower that nember to under 6 percent of all students.We had to be more intentional with our practices. In the mid year we were at 94%, achieving our goal. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Evidence: Provide evidence of the implementation challenges the school encountered during the Fall semester. Describe the changes made to address these challenges. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The data indicates that even though students are moving in the right direction and making learning gains throughout the year, only 32% of the students in the bottom quartile have improved by 10 or more points on their FAST PM2 assessment in comparison to the FAST PM1. This shows that we need to continue to put interventions and remediation opportunities in place to help students make significant gains on their reading assessment. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Evidence-based Interventions/Strategies: What was each Intervention/Strategy’s identified strengths and weaknesses? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Steps to improve would be 1. have learning reading bootcamps and tutoring for all students during study halls and after school . I.E. star program 2. Differentiation of instruction and scaffolding lessons to review missed content. 3. school-wide strategies such as CUBE and WAVES strategies to help make gains. 4. Reading class and DLA 5. Soaring Ls mentoring program. - Reading push ins through study hall |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| New Actions: Describe any new actions that are needed to accomplish the intended outcome for the Area of Focus. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| To sustain the intended outcome, we will continue to offer tutoring and mentorship support through study hall for the students that are in the Soaring L Mentorship program, focusing specifically on reading instruction. In addition, we will conduct classroom visits and individual student data chats to discuss their progress, plans for intervention, and needs based off their assessment results. During our visits we will encourage students to attend our afterschool FAST Reading Boot Camp and determine students who will benefit from additional pull-out support. Lastly, we will provide ELA and Reading teachers with their data from PM1 and PM2 so that they could make informed decisions in the classroom and provide targeted remediation support. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Implementation challeges has been attendance issues from students and using the data in the most effective way to drive instructuion. Also, ensuring the rigor is always implemented to maximize capacity. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Evidence-based Interventions/Strategies: What was each Intervention/Strategy’s identified strengths and weaknesses? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| While closely monitoring our target groups through data chats with the students, students too will be held accountable for their efforts and will receive reward incentives, such as Biology Day at Busch Gardens. With the monitoring of data during PLCs, we are able to specify which standards need to be remediated and are creating different tests to reassess to measure growth. Still walk-throughs and timely feedback on checking for understanding make the team conscious of instructional delivery and how to vary the teaching strategies to meet the specific needs of various leaners. Moreover, areas of growth would be pacing, implementation of stations and common planning. With growth coupled with district-prescribed assessments, and canvas course assignments. Using the new data tracking platform-Performance Matters-analysis of the BSA with fidelity would give a better indicator of whether or not we should change our goal or not. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| New Actions: Describe any new actions that are needed to accomplish the intended outcome for the Area of Focus. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| In January the school began extended leartning opportunites and push in support. Targeted students based on CFA's and BSA were selected to attend weekly study hall remediation sessions. A biology teacher will also be providing push in support to assist with students in the classroom. The school is also offering to all students after school tutoring Tuesday's and Wednesday's in Biology. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| We anticipate meeting our year-end goal. the data should show an increase and reflect our overall student population more closely. Additionally, teachers are analyzing the data after these CFAs and remediating in their classes based on student need by skill. Additionally, using data from FAST Reading PM2 and the literacy coach has examined it for student growth/deficits from FAST Reading PM1, the literacy coach and teachers will come together to create small groups of students for targeted support/interventions with the literacy coach beginning in February. We are also offering FAST Reading review sessions through STAR tutoring once weekly that will resume in January. The entire ELA 9th and 10th grade team continues to meet and collaborate to track progress and implement interventions to meet our goal of 76% mastery. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| We are currently at 41% based on our last CFA. In order to reach our goal of 60% mastery, we will need to continue to provide interventions as well as tiered classroom instructions. The school plans on provided extended learning opportunites after school on Tuesadys and Wendesday. Our math intervention teacher is also working with students in RTI during study hall. We also have a math teacher providing push in support. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| We plan to increase student math proficiency rate on the End of Course Exams (EOC) by using the Delta Math, iexcell and Savvas programs to practice EOC questions. We also provide afterschool tutoring for remediation and pull-out small group tutoring through study hall. Common mini assessments are given through all Algebra and Geometry courses to provide data on students’ weakest areas. All math teachers meet during PLCs to plan lessons based on the district scope and sequence. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| What is working 1. exposure to many gateway practice exam style questions, practice through classroom activities, homework and cpalms. ests scores are averaging 65% for honors and 72% for AICE which is within the range for most students passing the EOC and within the ten-year range stated above. 2. Spiraling and pre and suffixes which help them to remember vocab better. We are starting to do PEEL, which is going fine but behind last year. Core test averages between 60-75%, honors test average is 72%. his is over 4 quiz period. Honors is well below average than last year. 3. Blooket as a tool revisit content and completing in class graphic organizers that is based on targeted gateway content needed for the EOC. Core is averaging 65-75% for quizzes, AICE is averaging 75% for quizzes. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Based on the Quarter 2 BSA in US History and the March BSA, the content of the material covered will be adjusted in our extended learning opportunites. All US History students will have an opportunity to attend our daily study hall review sessions starting in March. The teachers are also implementing small group instruction in the classroom to provide targeted remediation on concepts not covered. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
