Topic: Response to Intervention
In our latest study, Promising Practices from Persistent and Emergent Positive Outlier Schools, we returned to schools identified as positive outliers in prior NYKids studies as well as typically-performing schools that have risen to positive outlier status. The study seeks to understand what accounts for these schools’ comparatively better outcomes for culturally, linguistically, and socio-economically diverse youth. In our second case study we visited Fillmore Central School, our first school identified as an emergent positive outlier.
In our latest study, Promising Practices from Persistent and Emergent Positive Outlier Schools, we returned to schools identified as positive outliers in prior NYKids studies as well as typically-performing yet who have risen to positive outlier status. The study seeks to understand what accounts for these schools’ comparatively better outcomes for culturally, linguistically, and socio-economically diverse youth. The first case study of these schools is Crown Point Central School, identified as a positive outlier in our 2018 College and Career Readiness study.
This presentation describes the best practices used by schools in working with critical needs students. These practices include: (1) close engagement with and understanding of young people with critical needs; (2) literacy-and technology-enriched instruction; and (3) fluid adaptation and deployment of resources.
