Progreso ISD outlines reading interventions and tutorials for early grades after midyear benchmarks
Summary
District leaders described targeted RTI tiers, pullouts, and after-school tutorials starting first week of February to support 1st and 2nd graders, as midyear reading benchmarks showed mixed proficiency across grades and notable subgroup gaps.
Campus administrators told the board they will begin targeted tutorials and intensified intervention for English learners and students who did not meet midyear standards.
"We have, 59 meaning proficiency," said Miss Suniga while reviewing campus reading benchmarks and explaining supports embedded in daily schedules. The campus reported strengths in early grades and an average K class size near 18; administrators described a Tier 2 RTI block embedded in the day and a Tier 3 pullout for intensive intervention four times a week.
Miss Suniga and other elementary leaders said district tutorials will begin the first week of February, run about an hour (roughly 4–5 p.m.) with snacks provided, and will target small groups of 10–12 students per teacher. They also described TELPAS-focused camps and planned visits from outside specialists to improve English-learner outcomes.
The board asked about professional development and vertical alignment; administrators said they are scheduling PLC time so teachers can plan across grade levels and will continue offering targeted PD on small-group instruction and phonics programs the campus has adopted.
