School-wide Data § The SSPT should begin by creating a calendar of meetings (see Sample Calendar in SSPT Handbook, pgs. 30, 31) § At a minimum, schools should review school-wide data at least four times per year and schedule these dates at important periods, such as right after progress report periods or CELDT data is available) § All schools should be aware of their student performance across a variety of areas, such as DIBELS and which students are intensive, which subgroups need special attention and additional supports, SBAC data, attendance, suspension, reclassification rates, access to AP courses, AP potential rates, AP exam scores, course performance data, etc. § We look at which grade levels and groups of students need additional focus and support and develop targeted supports, as needed.

Multi-Tiered System of Support and the Student Support and Progress Team School-wide Monitoring SSPT

Multi-Tiered System of Support and the Student Support and Progress Team School-wide Monitoring SSPT Referral Process SSPT Referral § A teacher or anyone can make a referral to the SSPT. § The teacher creates an SSPT request in Mi. S or using the hardcopy forms. Right now there must be face to face contact with the Designee to communicate that a referral was made. However, there is an enhancement in Mi. S to create an alert. § In the past, referrals were vague and ambiguous and included information such as the “student is below grade level” or “not working to his/her potential”. § Under the new process, a consultation meeting must occur between the Designee and the teacher to improve the quality of referral information Through that dialogue, the Designee can ask “when you say he’s below grade level, what does that look like? What is the student able do and what would be the next obvious step? What assessment data do you have to evaluate his/her skill levels?
