  2. Mission Statement The mission of the LEAG Program is to promote graduation through academic achievement, parental involvement, attendance and positive behavior of at risk Latino students.

  3. LEAG • Criteria for selection: • GPA is between 1.5 to 2.4. • The student’s absences must fall below the expected attendance of 90%. • Excessive need for disciplinary action has been noted. • Earned credits at HS are not within range for graduation. • Teacher- Parent- Student- Administration Referral • Ethnic code is 4 (Hispanic)

  4. LEAG Liaisons Responsibilities • Meet with students individually • Visit with teacher weekly (varies) • Monitor progress reports • Monitor attendance (daily/weekly) • Group meeting at least once a month • Work towards goals-between you, the school and the student. • Use data to track student progress • Develop student intervention plan, use as needed within the program • Contact parents-log-keep some form of record.

  5. Philosophy of the LEAG Program • The whole philosophy changed to encompass the needs of our Latino students at the High School level and at the Middle School level. • Much of the Middle School philosophy is based on participation and tutoring w/classroom teachers. • Everything that we do is based on the criteria for selection and on the data that we are now providing through the Office of Equity and Minority Student Success. • Every school is different in the approach of providing LEAG in their building.

  6. Where does LEAG fit? • Where our program fits in with all of the MCVSD Initiatives and Processes already in place— • We are an Intervention Program • We are part of the District Initiative involving Latino students that are falling through the Achievement Gap • We will continue to use data to show where our students align towards graduation at each grade level.
