  2. CCLD Report • Reading Fluency • Leveling Books Agenda

  3. Collaborative Center for Literacy Development (CCLD)Their research for the RTA program depends on accurate attendance reports and program evaluation reports.

  4. Key Finding Last year14,570 students were served in RTA for an average of 59.5 days. Recommendation The Kentucky General Assembly should continue to fund RTA and expand funding to include more elementary schools.

  5. Program Evaluation January 15A worksheet will me sent to everyone in early January and the link to Survey Monkey will be available on January 8.

  6. The intervention tab in Infinite Campus should be completed for every RTA student.

  7. Key Finding The number of years in RTA is negatively associated with achievement in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. Recommendation Provide different intensive intervention for students early if insufficient progress is made.

  8. Key Finding Teachers do not have clear processes for exiting students. Recommendation Schools should establish well defined processes and criteria for exiting students from RTA.

  9. Key Finding Schools with the most effective systems for interventions had strong literacy teams with high involvement from the RTA teacher. Recommendation Schools should form inclusive literacy/RTA teams that support literacy.

  10. Key Finding RTA teachers have higher levels of training than interventionists in schools without RTA funding. Recommendation RTA funds should be used to develop and support RTA teachers related to literacy leadership.

  11. Key Finding Systematic multi-tiered support for students was not always evident in schools. Recommendation Schools should establish strong multi-tiered systems of intervention and use RTA as a support within those multi-tiered systems.

  12. Key Finding Students who received RTA interventions in kindergarten or first grades were more likely to reach the proficient level on K-PREP than student who participated in RTA in second or third grades. Recommendation Schools should focus resources on providing interventions for all students who demonstrate a need in kindergarten and first grade.
