Corinth Central School District AIS and RtI Plan

Purpose of Academic Intervention Services and Response to Intervention

Academic Intervention Services (AIS) are services designed to help students achieve the learning standards in English Language Arts and mathematics in grades K-12 and social studies and science in grades 5-12. AIS mea

Historically, special education was considered a placement rather than a service. The paradigm shift with The Response to Intervention Model puts the focus on defining the problem and developing a plan of interventions to address the targeted area to attempt to keep the students in the general education program. After the reauthorization of the Individual with Disability Education Act (IDEA) of 2004, the RTI model needed to be implemented in all schools K-4. “A student shall not be determined eligible for special education if the determinant factor is:

(i) lack of appropriate instruction in reading, including explicit and systematic instruction in phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary development, reading fluency (including oral reading skills) and reading comprehension strategies;

(ii) lack of appropriate instruction in math; or (iii) limited English proficiency.”

Part 200 Regulations of the Commissioner of Education further states that “specific documentation for special education eligibility determination needs to indicate if a student has participated in a process that assesses the student’s response to scientific research-based intervention, the instructional strategies used and the student centered data collected.”

This RtI plan was written to define and provide a process for implementing academic interventions at all tier levels. Although behavior can impede academic performance, behavior was not specifically referenced in this document. Our district has numerous behavioral resources that are available in shared google documents under the titles of IST-B and PBIS.

Additional Instruction Defined

Additional instruction means the provision of extra time for focused instruction and/or increased student-teacher instructional contact time designed to help students achieve the learning standards in the standards areas requiring AIS. Interventions that address barriers to student progress requiring AIS may also include, as needed, school guidance and counseling, services to improve attendance, and student skills.

Steps in RtI Process

A school district's process to determine if a student responds to scientific, research-based instruction shall include the application of information about the student’s response to intervention to make educational decisions about changes in goals, instruction and/or services and the decision to make a referral for special education programs and/or services. [8NYCRR §100.2(ii)(1)(v)] TIER 1 If a student is not making adequate progress within the core curriculum, the teacher should:

● Discuss concerns with grade level as weekly meeting ● Agree upon a plan (could be suggestions of strategies to try, discussing how to

group students which may be in current class or going to another teacher at that grade level).

● Gather data on the differentiated instruction/Tier 1 interventions provided for 6-8 weeks

● Organize data to bring to data meeting TIER 2 Step 1: If a student needs more help than what is being provided in Tier 1, the teacher needs to bring his/her concerns and documentation (differentiated instruction/Tier 1 intervention(s) used, classroom assessments, work samples, miscue analysis, anecdotal records, error analysis, etc.) to the data meeting and/or grade level meeting ( AIS Coordinator or principal needs to be present). Step 2 of Tier 2: The grade level group defines the deficit area in measurable terms. Then the frequency and location (in-class, pull-out, after school, etc) is determined. Once these decisions have been made, the student is formally placed in AIS, the parent is informed using a letter generated by the AIS data tracking program and student data is entered into the AIS data tracking program by the AIS Coordinator. Step 3 of Tier 2: The interventionist will gather data on the Tier II interventions provided. The information will be collected on the Student Intervention Form. The student will be progress monitored bi-weekly. If after three to four progress monitoring assessments (6-8 weeks) little or no growth is evident, the intervention needs to be modified. A second

intervention may need to be tried. This will be determined at a grade level data meeting. If little or no progress is made after a second Tier 2 level intervention, the student may be referred to IST or Tier 3 may be indicated at this point. The Student Intervention Form is maintained to continue documenting additional supports and services. TIER 3 If at the grade level data meeting or at IST it is agreed upon that Tier 3 is necessary, the area of deficit will be identified along with the goals for the intervention. A decision will be made as to what strategies will be used, duration, intensity and location of service. Student will be progress monitored weekly. The Student Intervention Form is maintained to continue documenting additional supports and services. Tier 3 is a very intensive intervention within a small group setting (target is 1-3) to be instructed by highly qualified teacher. After approximately 3 -5 progress monitoring assessments, if little or no progress is made, the intervention may need to be modified. After 7-10 progress monitor assessments, the teacher will return to the data team to present results of the intervention. At that time, a decision will be made to either: 1. continue intervention as Tier 3 intervention 2. reduce the services to Tier II or Tier I level 3. refer to CSE Possible Interventions Tier 1 interventions Academic

Universal Screening A school district's process to determine if a student responds to scientific, research-based instruction shall include screenings applied to all students in the class to identify those students who are not making academic progress at expected rates. [8NYCRR §100.2(ii)(1)(ii)] Screening is an assessment procedure characterized by brief, efficient, repeatable testing of age-appropriate academic skills (e.g., identifying letters of the alphabet or reading a list of high frequency words) or behaviors. Screenings are conducted for the purposes of initially identifying students who are “at-risk” for academic failure and who may require closer monitoring and/or further assessment. All students will be screened three-four times a year in essential Reading and Math. Results from the screenings will provide the following information:

● Identification of students who are or are not making adequate progress ● Identify a need to modify instruction to ensure that all students are mastering

essential skills ● Identification of students who have made adequate progress and can be

removed from additional support services This information will be utilized to determine movement into other tiers for instruction based on the student’s needs. Progress Monitoring A school district's process to determine if a student responds to scientific, research-based instruction shall include repeated assessments of student achievement which should include curriculum-based measures to determine if interventions are resulting in student progress toward age or grade level standards. [8NYCRR §100.2(ii)(1)(iv)] Progress monitoring is the practice of assessing student performance using assessments on a repeated basis to determine how well a student is responding to instruction. Data obtained from progress monitoring helps staff to determine the extent to which students are benefiting from classroom instruction and informs decisions about appropriate levels of intervention. Transfer Students All incoming students will be administered the universal screening tool by their classroom teacher within two weeks of entering the district. A comprehensive file

review may be completed, if applicable, by the AIS Coordinator. If assessment scores indicated a need for services above Tier 1, the Tier 2/3 protocol will be followed. Description of Tiers A school district's process to determine if a student responds to scientific, research- based instruction shall include instruction matched to student need with increasingly intensive levels of targeted intervention and instruction for students who do not make satisfactory progress in their levels of performance and/or in their rate of learning to meet age or grade level standards. [8NYCRR §100.2(ii)(1)(iii)] Response to Intervention (RTI) utilizes a three-tier approach with varying levels of support beyond that used at the core curriculum.

Tier 1 Instruction Instruction will include the following elements:

● Scientifically-based curriculum following the Common Core State Standards ● Behavioral support systems ● Effective, highly engaging instruction ● Well-trained teachers ● Universal screening and progress monitoring

The classroom teacher will examine the results of the universal screening, diagnostic benchmark assessments, and/or periodic progress monitoring. If a teacher has a concern about an individual student’s academic achievement or behavior, the teacher will communicate informally with the grade level to discuss the problem, agree upon a plan, and monitor and document the student’s progress for 6-8 weeks. Problem-solving is directed toward those students who struggle to meet academic and behavioral expectations for the grade level. This process may occur at any point throughout the school year. If the student’s problem persists, or if the student does not meet expectations on benchmark, progress monitoring or classroom assessments, a more formal problem-solving process will be initiated through a meeting. Tier 2 intervention will be determined at that time. Students identified in Tier 1 may exhibit the following characteristics:

● At-risk ● Performing below expected levels ● Requiring specific supports to make grade-level progress in Tier 1

11

Tier 2 and Tier 3 Intervention At Tier 2, the grade level team will review student performance data. Students who respond well to targeted group intervention and catch up with grade level expectations will exit Tier 2 and have their needs fully met in the classroom. For students who do not respond adequately to the intervention, the grade level team will use student performance data to determine the next step. At that point, the grade level team may recommend the same intervention with increased frequency and intensity or a different intervention may take place. At Tier 3 the grade level team will use student performance data from frequent progress monitoring to make a decision to continuing the current intervention, alter the intensity of support or implement an alternative intervention. Tier 2 Targeted Group Intervention Identified students will receive a targeted, small group, differentiated instructional intervention. This intervention is provided in addition to, and not in place of, the core instruction provided in Tier 1. For example, a student who is receiving Tier 2 intervention would be provided core instruction plus 20-30 minutes of supplemental interventions three to five days per week. Tier 2 intervention will be provided in small, same ability groups of 3-5 students. Tier 2 interventions focus on the area of student need or weakness that are identified in the screening, assessment or progress monitoring reports from Tier 1. The location of Tier 2 intervention is determined by the school. It may take place in the general education classroom or in an alternate location outside of the general education classroom. Approximately 5-20 percent of students in a class receive Tier 2 intervention. Tier 2 targeted group intervention instruction includes the following elements:

● Evidence-based practice protocols ● Effective, highly engaging instruction ● Frequent progress monitoring

● Evidence-based practice protocols

Tier 2 intervention will be specialized, systematic,purposeful, focused, and consistent. This direct, systematic instruction provides more teacher-directed instruction, carefully structured and sequenced to an individual student, than was provided in Tier 1. The interventions should be supported by research and vary by curriculum focus, group size, frequency and duration.

● Effective, highly engaging instruction Tier 2 instruction may use classroom materials and approaches, but it extends

and supports Tier 1 instruction in these ways: ● Providing more opportunities for students to process and practice the

target skill or behavior ● Breaking the material into smaller chunks and segments

● Frequent Progress Monitoring

At Tier 2, progress monitoring occurs more frequently using Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM) that measure targeted skills. The determination of a student’s achievement is well defined and mastery is achieved before moving on to the next step. The recommended length of time a student spends in the second tier of intervention will vary from approximately nine to thirty weeks. When progress monitoring of a Tier 2 intervention indicates lack of adequate response, the grade level team will consider adjusting the intervention. Tier 3: Intensive, Individualized Intervention Tier 3 intervention is designed for those students who demonstrate insufficient progress in Tier 2. Tier 3 is typically reserved for approximately one to five percent of students. These students are to receive more intensive instruction in addition to their core instruction. Tier 3 differs from Tier 2 instruction in terms of such factors as time, duration, group size, frequency of progress monitoring and focus. This tier provides greater individualized instruction in a small group setting (1-2 students) anywhere from 30-60 minutes at a minimum of four days per week. The progress of students at Tier 3 is monitored more frequently to determine the student’s response to Intervention. Instruction is provided by certified teachers who are highly skilled or trained in the areas of academic need indicated by student’s performance data. Tier 3 instruction is considered additional instruction to Tier 1 and is not intended to replace Tier 1 instruction. Tier 3 Intensive, individualized intervention instruction includes the following elements:

● Researched-based and Evidence-based intervention ● Intensive intervention based on individual needs ● Frequent progress monitoring

● Researched-based and Evidence-based intervention Tier 3 intervention approaches will meet the following criteria:

● Supported by scientifically-based research and taught with fidelity ● Structured, explicit and designed to address specific learning targets

13

Page 14: Response to Intervention Plan 2018-19 - Corinth High School · little or no progress is made, the intervention may need to be modified. After 7-10 progress monitor assessments, the

● Intensive intervention based on individual needs Tier 3 is the most intensive intervention. It will target specific deficiency areas in order to meet individual student needs. If a student’s response to Tier 2 was positive but minimal, he or she may continue to receive a similar type of intervention. In this case, however, the frequency and intensity of instruction must be increased.

● Frequent progress monitoring The progress of students at Tier 3 is monitored frequently using Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM) that measure targeted skills to determine the student’s response to Intervention.

Procedures for Parent Notification

A school district's process to determine if a student responds to scientific, research-based instruction shall include written notification to the parents when the student requires an intervention beyond that provided to all students in the general education classroom that provides information about:

(a) the amount and nature of student performance data that will be collected and the general education services that will be provided pursuant to the structure and components of the RtI program selected by the school district;

(b) strategies for increasing the student’s rate of learning; and (c) the parents’ right to request an evaluation for special education programs and/or

services. [8NYCRR §100.2(ii)(1)(vi)]

The Principal and AIS Coordinator will be responsible for parental notification indicating a need for Response to Intervention (RTI). This will be made in writing and will include a summary of services being provided to the student including when the services will be provided. This letter will be sent home prior to the beginning of the services. Parents will also be kept apprised of their child’s progress through quarterly written reports, interim/progress reports, report cards and parent conferences or consultations. Parents have a right to request an evaluation for special education. When RTI is discontinued, the parent will be notified in writing that the services will be ending; the criteria for ending services, the current performance of the student and the measures that were used in determining the student’s level of performance will be included. Tier 2 and 3 letters will be generated through the AIS Data Management System.

Fidelity of Implementation A school district shall take appropriate steps to ensure that staff has the knowledge and skills necessary to implement a response to intervention program and that such program is implemented consistent with the specific structure and components of the RtI process selected by the school district. [8 NYCRR §100.2(ii)(3)] Fidelity of the process at the school level means consistency with which the various components are implemented across classrooms and grade levels. Fidelity of implementation means:

● intervention/instruction is delivered in the way in which it was designed to be delivered;

● screening and progress monitoring procedures are administered in a standardized manner, and an explicit decision-making model is followed;

● instruction and interventions are implemented consistent with research or evidence-based practice;

● staff receive appropriate professional development; and ● administrators provide supervision and serve as instructional leaders.
