National Context

Over 50% of U.S. crime is committed by 5-7% of children between ages of 10-20 Over 82% of crime is committed by people who have not completed school 70% of youth viewed as antisocial in school are arrested within 3 years of leaving school Problem behavior is the single most common reason why students with disabilities are removed from regular schools, work, and house settings (From Kincaid, D. University of South Florida)Student Problem Behavior: Social Cost

Student Problem Behavior: Economic CostThe average cost of the most highly restrictive placements for students with disabilities is $150,000

Federal & state governments add 1,500 prison beds every week costing $30 billion/ year

It is projected that soon more Americans will be in prison than will attend the nations 4-year collegesKincaid, h Florida(Kincaid, D., University of South Florida)

The Ohio Integrated Systems Model for Academic and Behavior SupportsThe Ohio Integrated Systems Model for Academic and Behavior Supports is a comprehensive school-wide prevention & intervention model that provides support systems which address both academic and behavioral needs of ALL students.

Key Features of an Effective Integrated Model

Summative Effects of an Integrated ModelShephard Kellam, Johns Hopkins UniversityReading Instruction Reading & Behavior Instruction Behavior Instruction SignificanceBL

Research FoundationsBased on longitudinal research, achievement is strongly and reciprocally linked to behavior and psychological well being.School wide prevention/intervention efforts in early grades promote academic achievement, prevent school failure and drop out.School wide prevention/intervention efforts promote emotional and behavioral well-being; prevent drug abuse, aggression, and mental disorders.

Research Foundations Supporting OISMProven relationship between academic and social behavior skill development (Kellam,1998)Effectiveness of a system wide, 3 tiered model of intervention with increasing intensity to infuse behavior and academic support across a school for all students in need of assistance (Sugai, Horner,Kameenui, Simmons, 2002)Established efficacy of educational systems change as a means to improve schools, and consequently, student achievement (Fullan, 2003)

State Improvement Grant OutcomesCharacteristics of the sampleEvidence of accuracy of implementationLiteracy outcome dataStakeholder satisfaction with the modelState Evaluation Coordinator for Ohio SIG: Francis E. Lentz Ph.D. University of Cincinnati

Characteristics of the SampleTwo cohorts 59 buildings 2004-05 78 buildings 2005-06 137 total buildingsGeographically distributed across stateSimilar proportions of at-risk students in NCLB subgroups compared to other OH schools OISM buildings were lower performing on OH report card than OH normOISM buildings were significantly lower in reading performance than overall OH schools

Implementation AccuracySET data for PBS implementation (75% implemented)Building action plans (65% accuracy for use of strategic planning process)SWIS/DIBELS implementation & use of web data systems (123 buildings) use of data to make decisions across tiers of support

Literacy Outcome DataBoth cohorts significantly improved fall to spring outcomes for measures analyzed (ORF, NWF, LNF )22,000 students in DIBELS databaseCohort one better improvement than cohort two(one with more experience than two ) may speak to effect of level of implementation)

Stakeholder SatisfactionBelief about the effectiveness of OISM components for teachers, principals, and regional coaches.All groups indicated strong belief that OISM will be effective in improving outcomes with coach and principal ratings being highestOverall, participants believed that OISM will improve outcomes, skills related to OISM are good, but there are some concerns about knowledge and commitment of their peers.
