Orange County Public Schools
Focus on the ABC’s:Attendance
• Schools and communities need to measure and act on chronic absenteeism
– # of students who miss 10% or more of school
– # of students who miss a week or less
• Organize efforts built around knowledge that student absenteeism is driven by a combination of:
– Student choice, school factors driving students away, and out-of-school factors pulling them away

• First, it is important to track minor as well as major incidents.
• Students with sustained mild misbehavior fall off-track in large numbers.

Focus on the ABCs: Course Performance
• Course performance is as important for students long term success as test scores.
• 6th and 9th graders with multiple D’s and F’s seldom graduate unless interventions are applied and take place consistently.
• 6th and 9th graders with B or better averages typically succeed in high school and are on-track for future college success.

Students Change at Different Grade Levels and Require Different Supports
• Pre-K and Elementary Grades- Core academic competencies and socialized into the norms of schooling in a joyful manner
• Middle Grades- Intermediate academic skills (reading comprehension and fluency, transition from arithmetic to mathematics) and a need for adventure and camaraderie
• High School- Transition to adult behaviors and mind set with a path to college and career readiness, as well as, the appropriate extra support for students with below grade level skills

The Checklist Manifesto
The purpose of a good early warning systems is not to fill out paperwork or to prove to others that we havecovered our bases, but to help well-trained teachers cope with the complexity and detail of keeping students on track in the modern world.

Core Ideas of Early Warning Systems
1. Students need to successfully navigate several key transitions and acquire a set of academic behaviors to learn how to succeed at school.
![Page 17: Version 3-Updated MTSS EWS PD 2015-16](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062412/58f1ce6f1a28ab50058b45ed/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

2. By tracking Early Warning Indicators, it is possible to identify when students are beginning to fall off-track providing time to intervene and alter their trajectory through school and beyond.

3. Using EWS, schools can be organized to apply
school-wide preventative, targeted
and intensive interventions until
students are on-track.

LOOKING FOR PATTERNS IN DATAModule #1 – Part 3
![Page 20: Version 3-Updated MTSS EWS PD 2015-16](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062412/58f1ce6f1a28ab50058b45ed/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Understanding Patterns• To understand patterns in attendance, behavior,
and course performance, the EWS indicators need to be studied and monitored.
• Ways to look at EWS data:
- Individual student patterns
- Class, grade, school patterns
• These variant patterns can lead to different solutions and interventions.

4 Diagnostic Questions About Students
• Are they regularly attending school? If not, why not?
• Are they able to focus on schoolwork in school?
• Are they productively persistent, i.e., trying in an effective manner?
• Do they connect school effort to life success?

SUGGESTIONS AND TIPS

Attendance
• Let’s Make Students Excited about Coming to School
• Most engaged secondary grade students are involved in cognitively rich activities which combine teamwork with performance (robotics, debate, drama, etc.)
• Build an attendance problem solving capacity which may involve external partnerships who can provide supports for the out-of-school challenges that students face.

Behavior• Model and teach resiliency, self-management and
organization skills.
• Implement school-wide positive behavior support programs and alternatives to suspensions.
• May need to re-examine disciplinary policies
• Work to insure that students’ experience consistent academic and behavioral norms as they travel from class to class.
• Need adults to look at what they can do to make students successful.

• We need alternative to suspensions
• Students with one or more suspensions need intervention to make sure they are not suspended again and/or fall off-track.
• In Florida, being suspended in the 9th grade once, increased the odds of dropping out; being suspended two or more times greatly increased the odds.– Source: Sent Home and Put off-Track, Balfanz, Fox, and Byrnes, 2012

Course Performance
• Students need support and sometimes even advocacy to succeed in their learning, as well as, tutoring, mentoring and other support programs.
• Schools should offer effective second chance and credit recovery programs which hold students accountable but provide a reason for them to keep trying.
