Progress Monitoring

Evidence/Data

1. Strengthen Tier I Instruction

Establish common instructional expectations in ELA and math. Use standards aligned learning targets, rigorous tasks, checks for understanding, academic vocabulary, and differentiated supports.

Monthly instructional walkthroughs. Review implementation trends each month. Conduct quarterly analysis of benchmark performance by standard.

Walkthrough data, lesson plans, student work, benchmark data, PD attendance

2. Implement Data Driven PLCs

Establish a consistent PLC cycle: assess, analyze, plan, reteach, reassess, adjust. Analyze data by grade, standard, SWD, and economically disadvantaged students.

PLC monitoring every Wednesday. Leadership reviews PLC products monthly. Benchmark data reviewed quarterly.

PLC agendas, data protocols, common assessments, reteaching plans, student work

3. Provide Targeted Reading and Math Intervention

Identify students needing Tier II support. Create flexible groups based on specific skill deficits. Provide targeted intervention and regroup students based on progress.

Progress monitor intervention students every 4 to 6 weeks. Review intervention effectiveness monthly. Regroup students based on data.

Intervention rosters, progress monitoring assessments, student growth data, intervention logs

4. Increase Achievement for SWD and Economically Disadvantaged Students

Analyze subgroup performance. Ensure access to grade level standards, appropriate accommodations, scaffolding, explicit vocabulary instruction, and targeted academic support.

Disaggregate benchmark and classroom assessment data after each assessment cycle. Review subgroup performance monthly and compare growth to annual targets.

Benchmark data, state assessment data, IEP accommodation data, walkthrough data, student work

5. Monitor Implementation and Adjust Schoolwide Supports

Establish a monthly leadership data review using academic, subgroup, intervention, attendance, discipline, and walkthrough data. Identify barriers and determine needed adjustments.

Monthly leadership team review. Quarterly schoolwide progress review. Midyear strategy evaluation. End of year evaluation.

NCStar monitoring documentation, data dashboards, meeting minutes, action plans, assessment results

Key Action Steps

Progress Monitoring

Evidence/Data

1. Establish Consistent Attendance Monitoring

Monitor attendance daily and review attendance data monthly by grade level, classroom, and student. Identify patterns of absenteeism and students approaching chronic absenteeism.

Daily attendance review and monthly leadership review.

District attendance records, Infinite Campus reports, monthly attendance dashboard

2. Implement Early Identification and Intervention

Establish an early warning process to identify students with repeated absences or emerging attendance concerns. Assign staff to conduct parent contact and develop attendance interventions.

Review identified students every 2 to 4 weeks. Monitor whether attendance improves following intervention.

Contact logs, attendance intervention plans, student attendance records

3. Strengthen Family and Student Engagement

Communicate attendance expectations, emphasize the connection between attendance and academic success, recognize improved attendance, and engage families when concerns emerge.

Monthly review of family contacts and student attendance trends.

ClassDojo messages, parent contacts, attendance campaigns, recognition records

4. Address Barriers to Attendance

Use student and family conferences to identify barriers such as transportation, health related issues, family responsibilities, school climate, or other documented concerns. Connect families with appropriate school and community supports.

Review individual student cases every 2 to 4 weeks and determine whether the intervention is reducing absences.

Student support documentation, MTSS/SST records, referral documentation, attendance data

5. Monitor, Evaluate, and Adjust Attendance Strategies

Review attendance trends by grade level and student group. Evaluate the effectiveness of interventions and adjust schoolwide supports based on data.

Monthly leadership review, quarterly grade level review, midyear evaluation, and end of year evaluation.

Attendance dashboard, district reports, MTSS/SST data, meeting minutes, intervention outcomes

Key Action Steps

Progress Monitoring

Evidence/Data

1. Strengthen Tier I Behavior Expectations and PBIS

Establish, explicitly teach, model, practice, and reinforce school wide behavior expectations. Ensure consistent implementation of CHAMPS, classroom expectations, transitions, hallway, cafeteria, restroom, arrival, and dismissal procedures.

Monthly walkthroughs and discipline data review. Monitor implementation of schoolwide expectations and locations with repeated incidents.

Walkthrough data, PBIS materials, behavior lesson plans, referral data

2. Implement Data Driven MTSS Behavior Interventions

Establish a systematic process to identify students with recurring behavior concerns and provide Tier II and Tier III interventions based on documented needs.

Review intervention students every 2 to 4 weeks. Monitor referral frequency and intervention response.

SST, Intervention plans, behavior data, student conferences

3. Implement Proactive and Restorative Practices

Use restorative conversations, problem solving, reflection, reteaching, and relationship building to address behavior while maintaining clear expectations and appropriate consequences.

Review repeat referrals and intervention outcomes monthly. Monitor whether students receiving interventions demonstrate reduced referrals.

Restorative documentation, conference logs, referral data

4. Strengthen Staff Capacity and Consistency

Provide professional development and coaching on classroom management, CHAMPS, de escalation, behavior-specific feedback, culturally responsive practices, and appropriate referral procedures.

Conduct monthly walkthroughs and review referral patterns by teacher, location, time, and behavior type.

PD records, walkthrough data, referral data, coaching documentation

5. Monitor Discipline Data and Adjust Interventions

Conduct monthly discipline data reviews to identify trends, disproportionality, repeat offenders, high incident locations/times, and effectiveness of interventions. Use findings to adjust schoolwide and targeted supports.

Monthly leadership review and quarterly schoolwide evaluation.
