HomeFun• Find a partner, select one of the posters:
– What was something that was surprising from the articles you read last night?
– What was the biggest thing that you took away from “A different approach”?
– What was the biggest thing that you took away from “Finding their voices”?

TDS model components• We know that implementation of components
of the TDS model have helped schools reach their goals for the ABCs
• We know that when all components are implemented and for longer time periods, we have seen greater results
• We adapt and improve when there is evidence to do so
![Page 9: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Objectives – Tiered Interventions
• Participants will be able to understand the theory and research behind tiered interventions and early warning systems
• Participants will have the tools and resources to begin work on mapping interventions and planning for strong Tier I supports
• Participants will begin work on their role as the facilitator of EWI team meetings

We know that a tiered Intervention system approach supports…
• The students who behave and achieve in ways that are consistently and explicitly taught and reinforced
• The other students who need additional support
![Page 14: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Strong Tier I – Success in the ABCs
• Prevention/Intervention designed to support all students in the grade/school/classroom
Pattern
A large number of 9th grade students reading 2 or more years below grade level
Consistent misbehavior and disrespect from students
Students entering 6th grade without the academic or social skills to pay attention in class, learn, and be successful
Intervention
Strategic Reading Acceleration Course
Teams teaching behavioral expectations to students, recognition when students meet expectations, and responses when students don’tMastering the Middle Grades – Team’s coordinating lessons
![Page 15: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Strong Tier I• Concrete Plans for Achievement, Climate,
Attendance, Communication– On your table, there is one of these plans that
your team has started on.
– Select two items that you want to highlight– What would be your next step in helping to move
the team forward?
![Page 16: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Tier II and III• Tier II: Interventions designed for a smaller
group of students who are exhibiting some behavior (in any of the A,B,Cs) and have not been successful with Tier I
• Tier III: Interventions designed for individuals or a few students who are exhibiting strong behaviors (in any of the A,B,Cs) and have not made progress from previous interventions
![Page 17: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Tiered Intervention Activity• There are 3 stations around the room• On your table, there are envelopes with strips
of paper in them with prevention activities/interventions on them
• Your job is to select which indicator this is meant to address and under what Tier this intervention belongs
![Page 18: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Resource Map – Step #2
![Page 19: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Key responsibilities of STF• Work with school staff and TDS and DN team
to create a plan for initial Tier I, II, and III supports
• Working with school staff to identify the resources available
• Support coordination of interventions, analysis of data, and reflection/planning for what can improve
![Page 20: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Resource Mapping• What do we need?• What do we have available?
– How do we access these supports?• Who manages these supports or is the point
person?• How do I help people implement efficiently
and effectively without being their manager?
![Page 21: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Tiered Interventions/Early Warning
• Ensuring Tier I is effective – Opening Strong– Using data to identify areas of need– Implementation and follow-up
• Using data to identify students for Tier II and III– Common data reviewed regularly– Early Warning Indicator (EWI) Meetings– Monitoring Interventions– Identification of trends

Los Angeles Course Failure
What Factors Predict High School Graduation in the Los Angeles Unified School District?Silver, D., Saunders, M. (University of California, Los Angeles), Zarate, E. (University of California,
Irvine)
![Page 29: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Success Factors – The A,B,Cs• GPA and course passage are strong predictors of
students’ success • In addition, a study in Chicago has shown that
GPA is the strongest predictor of college graduation.– Over 60% of students who graduated with a 3.6 or
higher completed a four year degree within six years compared to slightly more than a quarter with GPAs between 2.6 and 3.0
– *Consortium on Chicago School Research, 2006
![Page 30: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Research Takeaways/Questions• Good News: Students are resilient and usually
signal before dropping out• Students usually start with one indicator and
develop more indicators over time• We have to mix prevention with intervention,
especially in 6th – 9th grade• Some students will move up with their
classmates even if they have an indicator
![Page 31: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
What do we do about it at TDS?• Create a Tiered Intervention System with an
emphasis on Tier I• Make regular ABC data a part of
conversations/ decisions• Create structures to regularly monitor this
data– Leadership Team Meetings– Team Meetings (including EWI)
![Page 32: STF Day 3 The End is near!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062816/5681643b550346895dd6064e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
