4 Why Concern with student skill levels as they enter high school Formalized structure to help students experience success Reduction in student graduation without the necessary skill set as measured by MCA II assessments Stop recreating the wheel every time we do not make AYP Final analysis … it is less about AYP and more about the ability to reach and teach every child.

Structural Changes –Technology preparation –Vocational classes –Keep students in our building –Middle college concept Appropriate Interventions –Early skill development – 6-12 common approach to interventions Embed standards in a more hands on curriculum for some learners Understanding where a student is academically in reading, writing and math

6 How Review of Research: article for each sub committee –Provided a common language –Starting point for conversation Define our needs based upon research Strands of research: –Service delivery models –Successful programs –Reasons for at-risk behaviors –Role of schools to accept all learners
