School Name: Chandler View MTSS-B Goal

District Intended Summative Outcome:

-Increase the use of MTSS-B Essential Components and Effective Classroom Practices to increase learning time and improve classroom behavior. Setting a baseline goal during the 19-20 school year due to the lack of documentation in the 18-10 school year.

School MTSS-B Goal:

Tier 1- Increase the use of Effective Classroom Practices and school wide use of specific positive feedback as measured on the Self-Assessment Survey (SAS) and Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI). Schools will show a minimum increase of 10% in each SAS system: Schoolwide, Non-Classroom and Classroom. 10% is a sign of deliberate change of practice on an anonymous self-assessment.

Strategies:

· Maintain a Tier 1 team that will meet monthly to monitor the fidelity of Tier 1 practices.

· Use the MTSS-B Tier 1 Action Plan to guide and document Tier 1 implementation and fidelity.

· Attend Tier 1 Trainings.

· Identify a Building Coach for Tier 1 who will attend six meeting led by district coaches: Jessica Riley

· Use schoolwide management strategies that meet the needs of all students with common language used consistently across all settings. This includes teaching specific expected behaviors and providing frequent positive reinforcement for expected behavior.

· Staff will consistently follow the school’s Behavior Flowchart to address behavior incidents.

Success Criteria:

· Staff will teach, model and practice behavior expectations using the lessons and language from the school’s behavior matrix.

· Teachers will use a 4 to 1 positive to corrective ratio when providing feedback to students.

· School-wide acknowledgement system used to reinforce student behavior.

· Students will respond to classroom managed behavior strategies, reducing the amount of lost instructional time.

Progress Monitoring:

The MTSS-B Tier 1 team will:

· Monitor the implementation of Tier 1 practices through annual administration of the Self-Assessment Survey (SAS) and the Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI).

· Use the Behavior Dashboard and other forms of data to determine trends in student behavior.

Monitor and Adjust:

The MTSS-B Tier 1 Team will:

· Review Big Five behavior data and create and monitor monthly Solution Plans to increase positive student behavior school wide.

· Make needed adjustments to lesson plans, acknowledgement system and other practices.

· Provide on-going professional development based on needs identified by the team.
