Yamhill Carlton administrators outline MTSS interventions as sophomore cohort lags
Summary
Administrators reported school‑level MTSS work and intervention plans after presenting on student-tracking data: 42 of 264 students were reported 'in the red' for failing two or more classes; freshmen, juniors and seniors show higher on‑track percentages than sophomores.
Tanner, speaking for the high school, described ongoing efforts to strengthen school culture and MTSS (multi-tiered systems of support) interventions. He emphasized a shift to create additional entry points for students into elective and intervention programs and reported a point‑in‑time snapshot of academic progress: "42 of the 264 students are in the red, which means they're failing 2 or more," Tanner said, and added that overall "84% of our school is on track right now." He provided grade-level breakdowns for context.
Tanner described concrete responses: an academic intervention period run by a teacher (named in the report), targeted in-person second‑semester math sections as an alternative to credit recovery, and expanded study table supports. Board members and staff discussed moving toward semester/trimester schedule options and noted staffing constraints that affect how many elective and intervention courses the district can offer. No formal policy change was decided; administrators said they will continue tracking and present follow-up data.
