Intervention classes provide students in kindergarten through fourth grade with an opportunity to increase literacy and math skills at a students’ instructional level. Each class session is designed to meet the individual needs of students within an individual or small group setting. The pace of instruction is modified to allow for different rates of learning.

Students are selected to participate in intervention classes based on teacher recommendation, class performance, and assessment results including standardized tests, district local assessments, and individual screenings. Individualized and group assessments throughout the school year, as well as review of the student’s classroom performance, guide the determination of strengths, skill acquisition, and continued needs. Progress reports are issued three times a year at the end of each trimester. Parent-teacher conferences are scheduled twice a year in cooperation with the homeroom teacher.
