Baseline testing indicated that 36% of LD/OHI students were below grade level in English. Based on this baseline evaluation staff identified 23-deficit skill sets across 11 disability profile models. After cross-referencing deficit skills sets (DSSs), disability profile models (DPMs), and available educational enhancement products, staff identified four educational enhancement products addressing at least 93% of the DSSs and 87.5% of the DPMs. After multi-stakeholder advisory groups of the LIP reviewed findings, the LEA Superintendent purchased the Series 7 English Model curriculum from Knowledge Integrators Inc . Upon completion of the 17-hour training program, staff implemented the Series 7 model curriculum. Results included a 26% increase in graduation rates among LD students and a 19% increase in graduation rates among students with other disabilities. A secondary benefit observed over the course of the program was a 46% in year-on-year teacher retention rates. Though exogenous variables at first led to a slight decrease in parent involvement in the second phase of the program, parent involvement and parent satisfaction reported in the Parent Satisfaction Survey Instrument more than doubled over pre-grant levels.
