Coppell ISD outlines math interventions, MTSS supports after small dip
Summary
District math leaders reported a modest drop in third-grade math meets/mastered rates but said strategic classroom visits, unit previews and MTSS interventions are being implemented to accelerate recovery.
Sameera Khan, director of elementary math, science and STEAM, told the board that 88% of third graders scored 'approaches or above' on STAR math and 70% met or mastered the standard, meeting the district's 2026 target of 69%.
Khan described targeted action steps: strategic classroom visits focused on math-workshop elements, unit previews two weeks before instruction, emphasis on concrete-representational-abstract models, and strengthened professional-learning conversations to address misconceptions and small-group instruction.
Board members pressed staff on how MTSS (multi-tiered systems of support) is applied and how the district monitors progress. Presenters outlined the cycle: transfer of anecdotal information across grade-level teachers, beginning-year MAP screening, targeted universal screeners for more granular diagnostics, and small-group interventions during workshop time. Panorama is used as the documentation tool so interventions and history travel with a student across campuses.
Trustees and staff agreed on ongoing monitoring through learning-walk data, MAP and STAR progress monitoring, and periodic board-level check-ins to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention strategy.
