Today’s Discussion • Federal Historical Perspective • Context of Ohio’s Performance Expectations • Key Aspects of NCLB and IDEA 04 • The Ohio Integrated System for Academic and Behavior Supports, Response to Intervention, Disproportionality, Early Intervening Services, AYP and Other Topics of Interest • Ohio’s Progress To Date • Questions and Discussion

Student Problem Behavior: Social Cost • Over 50% of U.S. crime is committed by 5-7% of children between ages of 10-20 • Over 82% of crime is committed by people who have not completed school • 70% of youth viewed as antisocial in school are arrested within 3 years of leaving school • Problem behavior is the single most common reason why students with disabilities are removed from regular schools, work, and house settings (From Kincaid, D. University of South Florida)
Student Problem Behavior: Economic Cost • The average cost of the most highly restrictive placements for students with disabilities is $150,000 • Federal & state governments add 1,500 prison beds every week costing $30 billion/ year • It is projected that soon more Americans will be in prison than will attend the nation’s 4-year colleges (Kincaid, D., University of South Florida) Kincaid, h Florida

The Ohio Integrated Systems Model for Academic and Behavior Supports The Ohio Integrated Systems Model for Academic and Behavior Supports is a comprehensive school-wide prevention &intervention model that provides support systems which address both academic andbehavioral needs of ALL students.

Research Foundations • Based on longitudinal research, achievement is strongly and reciprocally linked to behavior and psychological well being. • School wide prevention/intervention efforts in early grades promote academic achievement, prevent school failure and drop out. • School wide prevention/intervention efforts promote emotional and behavioral well-being; prevent drug abuse, aggression, and mental disorders.
Research Foundations Supporting OISM • Proven relationship between academic and social behavior skill development (Kellam,1998) • Effectiveness of a system wide, 3 tiered model of intervention with increasing intensity to infuse behavior and academic support across a school for all students in need of assistance (Sugai, Horner,Kame’enui, Simmons, 2002) • Established efficacy of educational systems change as a means to improve schools, and consequently, student achievement (Fullan, 2003)

State Improvement Grant Outcomes • Characteristics of the sample • Evidence of accuracy of implementation • Literacy outcome data • Stakeholder satisfaction with the model • State Evaluation Coordinator for Ohio SIG: Francis E. Lentz Ph.D. University of Cincinnati
Characteristics of the Sample • Two cohorts 59 buildings 2004-05 78 buildings 2005-06 137 total buildings • Geographically distributed across state • Similar proportions of at-risk students in NCLB subgroups compared to other OH schools OISM buildings were lower performing on OH report card than OH norm • OISM buildings were significantly lower in reading performance than overall OH schools
Implementation Accuracy • SET data for PBS implementation (75% implemented) • Building action plans (65% accuracy for use of strategic planning process) • SWIS/DIBELS implementation & use of web data systems (123 buildings) use of data to make decisions across tiers of support
Literacy Outcome Data • Both cohorts significantly improved fall to spring outcomes for measures analyzed (ORF, NWF, LNF ) • 22,000 students in DIBELS database • Cohort one better improvement than cohort two(one with more experience than two ) may speak to effect of level of implementation)
Stakeholder Satisfaction • Belief about the effectiveness of OISM components for teachers, principals, and regional coaches. • All groups indicated strong belief that OISM will be effective in improving outcomes with coach and principal ratings being highest • Overall, participants believed that OISM will improve outcomes, skills related to OISM are good, but there are some concerns about knowledge and commitment of their peers.
Regional Evaluation Small Sample Size Outcomes: • Positive correlation between schools’ self -assessments of implementation and independent raters • Low implementing schools vs. High implementing schools • Both high and low implementer schools made overall achievement gains • High implementers demonstrated higher subgroup student performance. These schools were more successful in closing achievement gaps for SWD and other at-risk students.
