Prog

ram Behavior

* In 2013-14, there have been 37 major referrals to the office.Behavior* Of the 37 behavior referrals and suspensions, 31 or 84%, were minority students.

Priority Concerns Root Causes(with evidence) Solutions

*Root's minority and free-reduced populations arenot meeting their AMO targets. There is a largeachievement gap between these groups and theirwhite and non free-reduced counterparts.

• Students not familiar withconcepts/vocabulary• Lack of confidence with the materials• The approach to the curriculum varies withingrade level• The approach to curriculum varies betweengrade levels

PLTs need to work together to identify appropriatestrategies/interventions that are designed to bestmeet students' needs utilizing the resources thatare currently available.

Track student progress to make regularadjustments as needed and ensure thatinterventions are working.

Progress monitoring students at required intervals.(Red - every 7 days, Yellow - every 20 days)

Increase frequency and effectiveness ofproject-based units of study.

*Disproportionate amount of minority studentsreferred to the office that is not reflective of theschool's population.

• Varied population with various needs• May need more work in developing skills incultural proficiency

Conscious Discipline implementation
