Early Warning System Information on Attendance and Grades combined with: 1. Retention 2. Former dropout 3. Credits vs Grade Level 4. State/District Assessments 5. Out-of-school suspensions To determine High, Medium, and Low Risk for Dropout 5
FACTS for High Risk Students: • Almost 2/3 of dropouts are High Risk students, despite being only 11% of All students • 27 times more likely to dropout than Low Risk student • Only about 10% graduate if High Risk continues 6
FACTS for High Risk Students: • Less than 8% meet standards on Math AMP • Average GPA is 1 letter grade lower than their peers • High Risk in Elementary High Risk in Secondary (over 50%) • Dropout rate can be cut in HALF with interventions 7

Dropout Rate by Groups and Risk: • • Student with Disability Dropout Rate = 7. 4% Students without Disability Dropout Rate = 3. 7% High Risk Dropout Rate: SWD = 21. 3% non-SWD = 21. 1% Economic Disadvantage = 22% Non-ED = 20% Limited English Proficient = 16% Non-LEP = 21. 5% Caucasian = 20. 9% African-American = 17. 8% Hispanic = 19. 6% Asian/PI = 20% AK Native/American Indian = 23% 10
Dropout Rates by Service • Interventions with High Risk students lead to: • Comparison group (No intervention) = 21. 1% • Treatment group (Intervention) = 10. 8% • “ 24+ contacts” group = 7% • Early Warning System is a GAME CHANGER 11

Graduation success program ended, however • Early Warning System still in operation • Tidbits guide to staff • List of students sent to school principals 13
School Input on Early Warning Systems • 28 administrators, counselors, support staff, and teachers • 21 schools • Asked 6 questions: School, Role, Staff involved, interventions used, challenges, suggestions, final thoughts 14
School Input Survey Question 3 Who monitors the risk levels at your school? Teachers/counselors? • Primary staff involved are counselors & prevention/intervention specialists • Staff can view risk levels in Powerschool 15
School Input Survey Question 4 What interventions are provided for High Risk Students? • • • Parental Contact Counseling After-school 1 -to-1 connection with support staff RTI for academic support Programs: Special Ed. , ANE, ELL, etc 16
School Input Survey Question 5 What do you perceive as the biggest challenge for serving High Risk Students? • Time and Resources • Lack of parental involvement • Attendance 17
School Input Survey Question 6 What suggestions do you have for improving the model in identifying low, medium, and high risk of dropout? • None (most common response) • Use MAP scores • School-based referral process 18
School Input Survey Question 7 What else, if anything, would you like to add? • More time and resources • More professional development for staff • More support • More parental involvement 19
