Simple and SystematicAYP/RTI/PBS

AYP + RtI

• How do they function in our school so we can best improve achievement without getting confused and overwhelmed?

• How do they support each other?

AYP

• Annual Yearly Progress – A year’s worth of growth on FCAT test, aiming toward being on or above grade level

AYP: A team’s early look(Problem Solving Template/Action Research)

This is a very proactive PLC approach.• What AYP subgroup(s)? Look at lagging data• Why are they underperforming?• What to do about it? ( this is not prescriptive –

you determine as professional learners)• When?• Working? if not What now?Quarterly Review to see if things are working.

RtI – School Wide and Team

• Response to Intervention is about providing good instruction and interventions to students based on their needs.

• Interventions are tiered, not students

RtI School-Wide

• The basis of RtI is good instruction for all(tier 1 interventions for all)

• School-wide instructional/communication expectations for example: small group, interactive notebooks, achievement contracts, co-operative learning, Cornell notes, before school tutoring, written response to high D.O.K. E.Q.’s…

RtI School Wide cont’d

• Early Warning system – looking at grades, discipline, and attendance

• Gives you data on: – students to provide interventions for– students to reward

RtI School Wide cont’d

Early warning system data• Quarterly review of data to determine school-

wide interventions(programs)by SLT/DST• Example of PBS rewards: No C’s, less than 2

referrals, less than 4 absences = ability to listen to mp3 during lunch.

RtI – Teams

This is by nature a little more reactive• Look at data semi- quarterly• See what group of kids are not being successful• Provide them with interventions you do not

provide for all (tier 2 interventions) for ex. pullout, Success Plans, mentor/coach outside of class, targeted individualization in class

More Systems/Simplification

• Morning Meetings :Monday – Teachers in classTuesday – DST, SLT, Dept., TeamWednesday – Parent Conf. Thursday – Teachers in classFriday – Parent Conf.

• Achievement Contracts – included in agenda• More to come from teacher input
