What’s Worth Fighting For Diplomas Now and Conditions of Success
Session Objectives For you to be able to: • Learn common language of Conditions for Success and Diplomas Now • Explore the nesting of WSWC expectations in Diplomas Now schools • Problem solve around reaching core elements of the Conditions of Success
Agenda • The Document • Stand up/ Sit down • Actual work • A Debate (yeah!) • Problem Solving around Core Issues
Stand Up Sit Down • Corps members (CMs), teachers and student support staff discuss data to identify students in need of moderate (Tier 2) and intensive (Tier 3) supports
CMs meet regularly with the student support team to co-construct and monitor progress of Tier 2 interventions and Tier 1 support
CMs support school-wide attendance initiatives and support consistent attendance of students on focus lists
CMs have defined role as positive behavior coaches throughout the day
CMs add capacity to existing efforts and initiate additional engagement opportunities for families, with specific attention to the families of students on focus lists
CMs are trained on curricula and accompanying intervention strategies and coordinate with teachers on how to best support instructional practice
CMs have access to core content specialists in literacy/ELA and math, who provide training and support to CMs for targeted interventions and classroom support
CMs and City Year staff are invited to participate in all appropriate trainings
Each CM follows one cohort through ELA/Literacy and math courses and has a focus list of students in that cohort
CMs support students in core courses, support double dosing, provide interventions, and coordinate with their teacher team
CMs plug into existing program structure and implement standard CY offerings (e.g., service learning, enrichment clubs, targeted tutoring, and homework assistance)
