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.

Bair MIddle uses various computer programs such as SuccessMaker, Common Lit, Newsela, Mastery Connect, Nearpod, CPalms, IXL, and Khan Academy to assess where students are struggling or progressing througout the year.  Each department meets in weekly professional learning communities for two consecutive mornings to discuss their scope and sequence of each grade level, assessment dates for formative and summative data points, and themes for Project-Based Learning that will occur quarterly.  Students who score in the reteach ranges (0-30%), attend after-school tutoring and work in small teacher directed groups, while the enrichment students (75-99%) participate in technology learning stations.  Our Math Coach works with our lowest 30% as well as our Alegebra and Geometry EOC students who struggled on last year's EOC assessment. The Math and Literacy Coach model lessons for teachers who are three years or less in the teaching field, and any struggling teacher needing assistance with the classroom environment and teaching strategies. Our Literacy Coach models comprehension strategies for our non-ELA teachers so literacy strategies and vocabulary infusion is used in all content area classes.This year, our school is one of the host schools for the District Super Saturday Camp designated for 8th graders to focus in on their Math  and Science Algebra readiness skills and EOC and Biology skills.  This also facilitates their preparation into their high school years.  Department Chairs meet monthly with the Administrative team to analyze school data, department pacing gudes, assessment scores, and professional learning communities grows and glows.  Discussions are held to share best practices and different criteria used to create small groups for reteach and enrichment so students can have instruction based on their individual needs in all classes. Teachers participate in ongoing data chats and conduct student data chats in their classrooms after monthly assessments.  Our data from PM1 (progress Monitoring 1) to PM2 (Progress Monitoring 2), shows a great decrease in our Level 1 students compared to PM1 last year. Our focus for our Math coach  will be in the 8th grade and Algebra 1 and Geometry classes . The ELA scores showed some decreases in our percentages of Level 1 scores last year.   All of our content area teachers analyzed the three ELA clusters and will work in Cluster 3 (Reading Across Gebres and Vocabulary) as a schoolwide effort to increase the proficiency in this area by usng comprehension strategies and graphic organizers with their materials.
