Today’s Learning Intention
I will increase my data literacy by developing an understanding of the ladder of inference to look at Tier I academic and behavior data with a racial equity lens.
I will explore Tier II/III practices and familiarize myself with the Data-Based Individualization tool (DBI)
I will further my understanding of what constitutes an intervention and how they differ from accomodations, modifications, and differentiation.
I can apply my learning today to a problem of practice that I am currently experiencing within my scope of work and experiences.

Activate Our Learning
After the Tier I meeting…
Identify students who need additional support in ADDITION to Tier I
Validated intervention program
Create written product to document process
11
Dig Deeper into Tier 2 & Tier 3…
12
Establishing data culture in Tier 1 will support reviewing and analyzing data in all Tiers.
Conversations about data should happen at all Tiers with a racial equity lens.
Let’s think about data literacy and how we can use structures and/or protocols to have conversations about data that can be used to review the health and strength of Tier I.

Some stops along the Historical timeline of schooling in the US…
1830s: By this time, most southern states have laws forbidding teaching Black people how to read. Even so, around 5 percent of enslaved people become literate at great personal risk.
1851: State of Massachusetts passes first its compulsory education law. The goal is to make sure that the children of poor immigrants get "civilized" and learn obedience and restraint, so they make good workers and don't contribute to social upheaval.
1864: Congress makes it illegal for Native Americans to be taught in their native languages. Native children as young as four years old are taken from their parents and sent to Bureau of Indian Affairs off-reservation boarding schools, whose goal, as one BIA official put it, is to "kill the Indian to save the man."
1865: The newly formed Freedmen’s Bureau collaborated with aid societies to provide literacy education to emancipated Black communities
1905: The U.S. Supreme Court requires California to extend public education to the children of Chinese immigrants.
1924: An act of Congress makes Native Americans U.S. citizens for the first time.
Some stops along the Historical timeline of schooling in the US…
1932s: A survey of 150 school districts reveals that three quarters of them are using so-called intelligence testing to place students in different academic tracks.
1948: Educational Testing Service is formed. These testing services continued the work of eugenicists like Carl Brigham (originator of the SAT) who did research "proving" that immigrants were feeble-minded.
1968: African American parents and white teachers clash in the Ocean Hill-Brownsville area of New York City, over the issue of community control of the schools. Teachers go on strike, and the community organizes freedom schools while the public schools are closed.
1970’s: The Brown Berets emerged after educational justice organizing in East L.A. Schools.
They were a Chicano nationalist organization that believed in Chicano self -determination and self defense of the community against racism and police brutality.
1994: Proposition 187 passes in California, making it illegal for children of undocumented immigrants to attend public school. Federal courts hold Proposition 187 unconstitutional, but anti-immigrant feeling spreads across the country.
Vocabulary Targets
“Disproportionality”: Disproportionate means unequal or out of proportion. In data, this is when a group of students is overrepresented or underrepresented when compared to the size of their group in the district.
“Equity”: The extent to which outcomes are predictable by demographic.
“Opportunity Gaps”: Created when structures, systems and practices result in barriers to educational access, success and imbalanced outcomes for historically underserved communities. These disparities are perpetuated by one’s intersectional identity markers (race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, language, age, gender, ability, etc.)
“Racial Equity”: The result achieved when advantage or disadvantage cannot be predicted by race. This includes elimination of policy, practice, attitude and cultural messages that perpetuate disproportionate outcomes
“Protocol”: An agreed-upon, collective framework or descriptive guideline of expected behaviors, norms, etiquette, and procedures for completing a task in the most effective and efficient manner.
Guiding Principles and Shared Agreements for Data Protocol:
“The Ladder of Inference”: A mental model that describes the brain’s natural process. If we find ourselves climbing this metaphorical ladder too quickly, we may be prone to bias.
The key is to stay low on the ladder, consider unknown student narratives and reflect.
Taking Action!
Collect & Observe Data!
Shared Data-Analysis Steps
Time =
90+ mins
Context: This year an equity focus is to increase students' feelings of belonging to the VPS community. This is the lens in which the data should be analyzed.
Desired outcome: Make an action plan for Leadership teams to implement structures and practices to increase community & a sense of belonging. Identify which student groups will be targeted in upcoming enrichment, intervention and supports across the building.
