District leaders outline plan to reverse math declines after assessment results
Summary
The D95 administration presented NWEA, IAR and ISA results showing declines in math; the district proposed accelerated supports, targeted SPED/math push-in time, strengthened co-teaching with West 40 coaching, and a middle school math specialist.
Administrators presented assessment results from NWEA (MAP Growth), the Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) and the Illinois Science Assessment (ISA), emphasizing declines in mathematics that the district plans to address.
To respond, district leaders proposed multiple interventions: more accelerated support, increased targeted push-in time and specialist support from special education and math specialist teams, strengthening co-taught classrooms with West 40 coaching to expand access to grade-level curriculum, and adding a middle school math specialist. "The primary goal is to strengthen student performance in mathematics," the minutes say; trustees recorded the plan for implementation and further monitoring.
