i-Ready Mathematics: Implementing i-Ready Mathematics as an intervention at Tier I in grades K-5 with assisting in closing achievement gaps with students identified as having substantial deficiencies in mathematics measured by individual student growth rates on i-Ready Diagnostic for Math.

Ellevation will be used to continue to write federally mandated ELL plans annually and track ELL’s quarterly progress toward their language goals.

Goal 1: Student Success

Strategy 2: Provide evidence-based academic opportunities with differentiated support for all students.
