What processes and procedures create a successful LUCHA™ program?
• Create a written plan for implementing LUCHA™; • Identify specific student criteria for identifying students for participation; • Schedule group meetings to ensure that everyone (administrators, students, parents, teachers, directors, coordinators, tutors, paraprofessionals, etc.) involved knows and understands their role and responsibilities regarding the implementation of the program; • Monitor the program; • Arrange ongoing meetings to gather information for making adjustments, if needed; • Award credit for student work when using LUCHA™ online courses—either course credit or credit for individual activities and/or assignments; and • Review district policies and procedures regarding student admissions, transfer credits, grade placement, GPA, etc.
