Data SummaryDescribe your conclusionsHolly Ridge Elementary continues to score above the WCPSS and Southern region average as measured by the North Carolina End of Grade Assessments.EOG data remains inconsistent showing one year of growth and the next not meeting expected growth in different grade levels and subject areas. HRESfailed to meet EVAAS Growth Status for the 2014-15 school year. Since the 2013-14 school year students in the Black subgroup did not meet AMO targetsin both Reading and Math. Students with Disabilities did not meet targets in Reading for the past 3 years and did not meet Math targets in the 2014-15.Economically Disadvantaged student did not meet targets for Reading and Math for the 2014-15 school year. Students in other sub-groups continue toscore above local and state averages. As a result of our findings, we will use more equitable teaching practices and provide profession development onengagement and student motivation. Teams will also closely examine sub-group data each quarter to monitor growth and provide differentiation. Earlyintervention for students in grades K-2, collecting more student feedback, and increasing co-teaching will ensure we are better able to meet the needs ofall students. PLTs will focus on integrating the 4 Cs: Creativity, Communication, Collaboration, and Communication into daily instruction.

Data DecisionProcess for Entry andExit

The following data will be used to indicate studentsneed additional data points:K-3: mCLASS data3rd grade BOG4-5: EOG below 4, ELA Report Card grades below a 4(administer mCLASS assessments )Threshold for Entry into the Problem Solving Cycle: students demonstrating a need in two or moremeasures (excluding composite). Team refers toWCPSS Tiered Support Flowchart to guide decisions.Exit: Reference WCPSS Tiered Support Flowchart aswell as gaining mutual agreement of all stakeholders.PLTs will meet with their MTSS grade level rep. 2times a month for kid talk. Intervention Team will meet 2 times a month toproblem solve Tier III students.During the Problem Solving Cycle PLTs/InterventionTeam will follow the WCPSS Tiered Support Flowchartto guide decisions.

Initial services will be provided by core teachers,intervention teachers and literacy coachessupporting core instruction and developingappropriate in class Tier II interventions.Along with strong core instruction and Tier II/IIIinterventions in place in the classroom, if necessary,additional Tier II/III interventions will be provided byinterventionists.

At MOY & EOY, the intervention team will pull themCLASS DEF report to determine the number ofstudents responding to interventions.

Continue to monitorsuccess within Core.Student has met at least 80% success rate based onexpectations as outlined in Tier II Plan.Entry into Intensive:IF student has not responded to Tier II interventionafter modifying plan twice with fidelity.Student is then brought to the tier III team forcreation of a Tier III plan (fba/bip).Exit Intensive: Student has met goal(s) outlined informal Tier III Plan (FBA/BIP).PLTs will meet with their case managers 2 times amonth. Intervention Team will meet 2 times a month toproblem solve Tier III students.During the ProblemSolving Cycle PLTs/Intervention Team will follow theWCPSS Tiered Support Flowchart to guide decisions.At MOY & EOY, the intervention team will use TFIdata to evaluate the effectiveness of the behaviorstructures outlined in the intervention matrix.

Instruction

All stakeholders will be informed of instructionaldecisions & planning with Grade Level PLTcollaboration.Digging deeper assessments will be administered, asoutlined by WCPSS Universal Screening & DiagnosticAssessment FlowchartK-2 Phonics Intervention lessons will follow Letterland• Intensive will follow Letterland Intervention Strand• Strategic will follow Letterland Small Group Lessons3-5 Phonics intervention lessons will use Recipe forReading & 3-5 Canvas Word Work site.

All intervention formats will be direct and explicitinstruction based on student need and guided byassessment data, collaboration and anecdotal notes.

Intervention Team will keep a student watch listwithin the shared drive

All stakeholders will be informed of instructionaldecisions & planning with Grade Level PLTcollaborationAssessing Math concepts diagnostic assessments willbe administered for Kindergarten & 1st grades asoutlined by the WCPSSK & 1st grade where applicable will follow lessonsfrom Kathy Richardson’s Assessing Math Concepts

All intervention formats will be direct and explicitinstruction based on student need and guided byassessment data, collaboration and anecdotal notes.

Intervention Team will keep a student watch listwithin the shared drive

All stakeholders will be informed of instructionaldecisions & planning through meetings.Strategic:Explicit behavioral/social emotional instruction + Tier2, targeted intervention as outlined in Tier 2 plan.Intensive:Explicit behavioral/social emotional instruction + Tier3, targeted intervention as outlined in Tier 3 planFidelity checks will be a part of every student’s TierII/Tier III plan within EASi. For Tier II, the grade levelpbis rep with do fidelity checks/lead behavior kidtalks. The Intervention Team will be checked usingthe TFI three times a year.
