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.

The early warning system is identified in FOCUS (attendance, mobility, FRL) intervention strategies used are differentiated instruction, small group instruction,  ESOL/ESE/IEP accommodations, technology programs, modeling, data chats, PLCs where teachers collaborate best practices,team and individual behavior plans.  Parent contact and support is significant.

Based on the warning sign indicators, the following have been put in place at Hawkes Bluff:

  • Attendance- student attendance is monitored . Attendance concerns are also addressed at CPST meetings through RtI. Weekly and Quarterly Attendance incentives have been implemented.
  • Students who have academic and behavioral needs, meet in small groups with the school counselor. 
  • Social Skills groups for behavioral needs, meet in small groups with ESE Specialist and ASD Coach
  • ELA/Math- students who are two or more levels below as measured by PM1 FAST and iReady ELA/Math Diagnostic recieve small group and/or pullout instruction. We use Cool Tools to test students' phonemic awareness and phonics levels. Benchmark Advance, SIPPS, SIPPS, Quick Reads (fluency), Phonics for Reading, Wordly Wise (vocab.) UFLI, Touch Math, SAVVAS MDIS, etc. are used with small group reading instruction and math instruction.
  • West Broward High School Students work with our first grade students on sight words, letter names/sounds, phonological awareness and number sense.
  • Students in grades 2-5 work on iReady in reading and math for 45 minutes each on a weekly basis.
  • Students in grades K-5 will work on building math fluency Xtra Math.
  • Leadership monitors all lowest quartile students receive their interventions.
