Community schools presenter: program served ~925 students, delivered 1,462 basic-needs items in first semester

A community schools representative reported to the Centerville-Abington Com Schs board that the program served roughly 925 students in the 2025–26 school year at Rose Hamilton and Sville Elementary and recorded substantial supports during the first semester.

"We provided 92 supports total," the presenter said, explaining that some schoolwide counts are duplicated in the slide totals. The presenter said staff distributed 1,462 basic‑needs items and that 80 students received case-managed services, which amounted to 306 targeted (Tier 2) supports and 668 Tier 3 one‑on‑one supports during the semester.

The presenter described the program’s tiered structure: Tier 1 for schoolwide services (assemblies, basic‑needs distribution), Tier 2 for small‑group behavioral supports, and Tier 3 for individualized case management with progress monitoring. She said the program uses previous‑year baselines to set goals and that attendance, behavior incidents and class‑dojo metrics are used to measure progress.

On outcomes, the presenter reported that students tracked for attendance showed improvement and that behavior monitoring produced mixed results: about 59% of tracked students improved, 11% remained at baseline and roughly 30% declined in the categories monitored. The presenter offered to provide the district more detailed, non‑identifying data on unique students served and the district’s data system exports on request.

Board members asked for clarifying data points the presenter said the program can provide, including non‑duplicated counts of unique students served. The presenter also noted that site coordinators typically meet targeted students at least every other week to monitor goals.

Next steps: the presenter said second‑semester data will be available in the fall and offered to return with the updated figures.
