How can parents and citizens see how the district’s title schools or any elementary schools are doing?
The best way is to go to the schools to look and ask about what you see in your child’s classroom and throughout the school. A new district effort, Response to Intervention (RTI), is underway to strengthen classroom instruction and student programming and support to increase student achievement. Response to Intervention requires “universal screening” to determine student strengths in reading and math and then deliver small group and intervention work to fill skill and knowledge gaps. Many of the same approaches used by title schools will be used across all schools, however without the additional federal funds and without the regulations.
