District outlines DIBELS baseline results and tiered literacy/behavior supports
Summary
Administrators presented early DIBELS literacy screening showing a notable portion of K-5 students in the 'red' intensive-support category and explained tiered literacy and behavior supports, weekly monitoring for red students and plans for targeted interventions.
Presenter (S7) reported on early literacy screening (DIBELS) for grades K'5, saying the baseline shows a significant number of students in the 'red' intensive-support category and framing that as an opportunity for early intervention. "The red, we are popping up at 53 that need intensive support," S7 said, noting kindergarten numbers skew the baseline because many students are new to formal instruction.
S7 described the instructional model: a 90-minute core literacy block for all students plus an additional 30 minutes of daily targeted instruction for students who need intensive support, small-group intervention or Title I services. The presenter said progress for red students will be monitored weekly, yellow students biweekly and green/blue once every eight weeks. The district also emphasized behavior supports: behavior coaches, functional behavior assessments and tiered interventions for students needing additional support.
