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. Country Isles employs many interventions to improve academic performance. For our K-2 students, teachers use the intervention programs Heggerty's, Horizons and Benchmark to support early literacy, phonics, and phonemic awareness needs. Teachers are trained and supported by our Benchmark Reading program. We are also in year 3 of Science of Reading professional development. Teachers use scaffolded lessons and personalized instruction to meet student needs in both the areas of reading and math. Teachers use iReady, iStation, Imagine and Savvas Realize to help differentiate and meet the needs of students in math. We are also a part of the Scale Up Math Pilot program. Our teachers will attend 3 critical content professional development days. |

| Progress: Is desired progress being made to accomplish the intended outcome for the Area of Focus by the end of the school year? | Yes | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Evidence: Provide evidence of the implementation challenges the school encountered during the Fall semester. Describe the changes made to address these challenges. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| During the Fall semester, analysis of K-2 literacy data revealed consistently low performance in phonics, indicating a gap in foundational reading skills. In response, the school implemented a targeted phonics initiative through iReady. Our kindergarten and first grade teams continue to implement Heggerty's lessons through whole group instruction. We are also utilizing our specials teachers to implement UFLI during our intervention block with our second graders. Additionally, more rigorous, standards-aligned instruction was implemented through Benchmark Advanced to strengthen early literacy outcomes. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Evidence-based Interventions/Strategies: What was each Intervention/Strategy’s identified strengths and weaknesses? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The phonics initiative demonstrated strong effectiveness with over 50% of students that participated showing measurable growth in phonics skills and over 80% improving their scale scores. UFLI proved to be a strong structured instructional tool that supported student progress, however, a need for additional teacher training was identified as a weakness. Despite this, student data indicates continued growth, suggesting the strategy is positively impacting early literacy outcomes. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| New Actions: Describe any new actions that are needed to accomplish the intended outcome for the Area of Focus. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| To further accomplish the intended outcomes in the Area of Focus, new actions include the implementation of UFLI by one of our first-grade teachers, along with regular individual data chats to help students track and understand their progress. In addition, targeted intervention planning and a dedicated intervention time are being used to address specific phonics skill gaps and accelerate student growth. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Evidence: Provide evidence of the implementation challenges the school encountered during the Fall semester. Describe the changes made to address these challenges. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| During the Fall semester, analysis of 3-5 literacy data revealed an improvement from the previous year, we noticed gaps in phonics and vocabulary. In response, the school implemented a targeted phonics initiative through iReady. Students were given 6 weeks of Phonics lessons in iReady to help fill some of the gaps. Our support staff is pushing into3rd & 4th grade classes to help with additional small group instruction Additionally, more rigorous, standards-aligned instruction was implemented through Benchmark Advanced to strengthen early literacy outcomes. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Evidence-based Interventions/Strategies: What was each Intervention/Strategy’s identified strengths and weaknesses? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The phonics initiative demonstrated strong effectiveness with over 50% of students that participated showing measurable growth in phonics skills and over 83% improving their scale scores. Support staff pushing into classes is proving to be helpful, however, a challenge is staying consistent with other daily demands. We are introducing more morphology instruction. This has proven to be somewhat of a challenge because Benchmark Advanced doesn't provide a lot of instruction in this area. Despite this, student data indicates continued growth, suggesting the strategies are positively impacting literacy outcomes. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| New Actions: Describe any new actions that are needed to accomplish the intended outcome for the Area of Focus. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| To further accomplish the intended outcomes in the Area of Focus, new actions include the implementation of after school camps for chosen 3rd through 5th graders. 3rd graders are attending reading camps twice a week through April and our 4th & 5th graders are attending reading and math camps. Administration and support staff are holding regular individual data chats to help students track and understand their progress. In addition, targeted intervention planning and a dedicated intervention time are being used to address specific phonics skill gaps and accelerate student growth. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Evidence: Provide evidence of the implementation challenges the school encountered during the Fall semester. Describe the changes made to address these challenges. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| During the Fall semester, analysis of Grades 3–5 mathematics data showed a decrease in learning gains from 73% to 67% on PM3. On PM1 grades 3-5 showed 26% proficiency. In response to analyzing the data, the school team identified priority skill gaps and targeted them using the i-Ready Math Toolbox. Another challenge we faced were some teachers new to the intermediate grades or our county. Topic Tests were analyzed to monitor student mastery of the instructional focus standards but felt we could have done a deeper dive into the data. Students were completing iReady lessons but not meeting their goals or with consistency. |

| Evidence-based Interventions/Strategies: What was each Intervention/Strategy’s identified strengths and weaknesses? | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Some of the challenges we have noted are students that lack of foundational math skills.Because of this we have included more small group instruction. Teachers are meeting with both remediation and reteach groups. With teachers new to the intermediate grade, a stength was having the math department come out and meet with the teams.One of the facilitators has been out to the school several times to help us with analyzing the data and doing class walkthrough. This is also helped in the teachers learning to dive deeper into the data. Another weakness noted was having students not meeting iready goals during the week. We have implemented challenges to encourage participation and have seen positive results with students rising to meet the challenges. Current data indicate that students are demonstrating mastery of the concepts being taught. Based on these results and ongoing progress monitoring, we anticipate an increase in learning gains moving forward. |

| During the Fall semester, Grades 3–5 literacy data indicated overall growth from the previous year; however, lowest quartile students continued to demonstrate significant gaps in foundational phonics and academic vocabulary. In response, the school implemented a targeted phonics intervention through i-Ready, prioritizing identified lowest quartile students. To further support this subgroup, support staff and facilitators provided push-in and pull-out services in Grades 3 and 4, delivering small-group, differentiated instruction aligned to identified student needs. In addition, the district met with classroom teachers, providing planning support to strengthen standards-aligned instruction using Benchmark Advanced. |
