The Problem:
1. At any given time up to 1/3 of our student population were failing one or more classes
2. Statistics for the class of 2010: PSAE does not meet/exceed
– Reading 37.6% – Math 38.4% – Science 49.3% – Writing 42.4%
![Page 4: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The issue continues:
Class of 2012 (current sophomores)– 46 total students below benchmark*– 23 in reading– 37 in math
– *Using Explore reading and math and Star reading scores
![Page 5: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Class of 2013 (current freshman)– 48 total students below benchmark*– 31 in reading– 34 in math
– *using Explore reading and math, Star reading, Aims Webb, and ISAT scores
![Page 6: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
At the beginning of the 2009-2010 school year we have
54 students in reading and
71 students in math
that are below benchmark in tests that are precursors to the ACT (in the freshman and sophomore classes)
![Page 7: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Class of 2012 46 out of 160 students below the benchmarks now
equals at least 28% not achieving meets standards in two years
Class of 2013 48 out of 155 students below the benchmarks now
equals at least 31% not achieving meets standards in three years

So, what do we do?
![Page 9: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Period 8
Students who pass junior level classes meet/exceed on the PSAE
Stems from a suggestion from Student Services made to the administration– Formal and informal surveys of students in
At-risk focus group and Honors students
- Survey of staff from 2008 In-service
![Page 10: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The administration negotiated an additional period into the school day in our last contract.– Period 8 has two uses:
Students with a failing grade must stay Students who have been identified as having a reading
deficiency must stay
![Page 11: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Students who are failing a class
The “F-list” is run on Thursday afternoon The students are notified Friday by a note at
school and a letter sent home that they must attend period 8 starting the next Monday
Students are assigned to a specific teacher in the content area in which they are failing. – May not be their classroom teacher
![Page 12: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Students are required to stay for three weeks regardless of whether or not they have raised the grade
At the end of each week student placement is evaluated and could be adjusted
If a student is passing all classes at the end of three weeks he is excused from period 8
If a student is failing the same or a different class at the end of the 3 weeks he will be assigned another 3 weeks.
If a student is passing all classes he is dismissed at 2:51 Period 8 is run Monday through Thursday
![Page 13: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
No teacher is assigned more than 10 students
Practices/rehearsals must start after period 8 All teachers have an assignment If a student is in period 8 for failures they are
not excused to leave for sporting events until after 3:30
![Page 14: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Students are given homework completion help as well as skill-based interventions depending on the need of student.
Currently we have 120 students participating in period 8 for failures.
Approx. 31 students are on round 2 of being assigned to period 8
After the first 3 weeks, 35 of the original 66 students were done with period 8

What is Response to Intervention?
![Page 16: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Key Components of RtI
Universal Screening/Data Collection– Explore/Plan test scores for Math and Reading– Aims Webb and Star Reading scores– ISAT scores
Interventions based on need and data– Used in Tier 1, 2 and 3
Progress Monitoring– AIMSWEB
![Page 17: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Universal screener: Explore Reading and Math scores.– Explore reading scores were compared with
AIMSWEB scores (for freshman)– Identified 83 freshman and sophomores as being
below benchmark on the Explore and gave them AIMSWEB benchmark testing
– Of the 83, 21 students tested below the 25th percentile on the 8th grade benchmark on AIMSWEB.
![Page 18: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Gave the 21 students the SRA Corrective Reading Placement test
Students were grouped appropriately and started SRA Decoding during Period 8.
Students are given AIMSWEB progress monitoring every two weeks.
![Page 19: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Good Things:
Failures are down from last year at this time by 32% Students are receiving scientifically proven reading
interventions in hopes of improving scores across all categories on the PSAE
More communication and collaboration among staff Students benefit from the individual attention
provided by the small numbers Parents appreciate the effort given to helping their
student be successful
![Page 20: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Yikes!
Students in after school SRA reading feel “punished” for being poor readers– When will they “get out”?
Will teachers always be in their current placements? Concerns that we are reaching everyone that needs
help Inconsistent grading has led to student placement
issues for failures Providing a “study hall” vs. providing interventions
![Page 21: Mendota High School Response to Intervention/Period 8 Presentation Holly Beals Jayne Barnes Tammy Guerrero Stephanie Haskell Amy Wilson](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649c855503460f9493b523/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
For the future:
Add behavior interventions More closely align our curriculum within
departments as Tier One intervention– Look at grading practices among teachers
teaching the same class so grades are equitable Add after school Math intervention Overall program evaluation
– What classes do we want to add or change
