Skyview High School reports significant gains in student math achievement with new intervention pilot
In a recent Vancouver School District meeting, educators highlighted impressive progress in supporting students of color, those receiving special services, and multilingual learners, showcasing double-digit gains in pass rates during their first year of a new initiative. This achievement, while just one measure of success, underscores the district's commitment to using data to enhance educational outcomes, particularly in math.

The discussion centered around a pilot program launched last spring, inspired by a model for executive function support. Algebra 1 teachers collaborated to identify specific skills where students needed additional help. They then invited these students to participate in targeted intervention sessions during designated "storm time," aimed at bridging gaps in their learning.

Ken Wiggins, a veteran teacher at Skyview High School, shared his positive experience with this collaborative approach. He emphasized the value of teamwork in co-teaching and the impact it had on student learning. Wiggins, who has been with the district for nearly 25 years, expressed enthusiasm for the progress made through this focused intervention strategy.

The meeting reinforced the district's dedication to continuous improvement and the importance of tailored support for diverse learners. As the program evolves, educators are optimistic about further enhancing student success in math and beyond.
