Oldham County Schools Response to Intervention

All Oldham County students, supported by family, community, and schools will participate in relevant engaging, quality learning tasks, in safe, well-designed schools, guided by highly-skilled teachers and visionary leaders.  Graduates of Oldham County Schools will pursue a life of continuous learning, contribute to their communities, participate thoughtfully in American democracy, and compete successfully in the local, national, and international economy. 

Five Essential Areas:
~Rigorous Curriculum (What do students need to learn?)
~Student Engagement in Learning (How will we engage them so they learn best?)
~Continuous Assessment (How will we know when they have learned?)
~Intervention (What will we do when they have not learned?)
~Enrichment and Acceleration (What will we do when they have already learned?)

Response to Intervention is designed specifically to address the three key areas of Continuous Assessment, Intervention, and Enrichment and Acceleration.  Teachers and school support staff use powerful formative assessment strategies to measure the learning of each student and if these assessments show that a student is experiencing difficulty in learning, an immediate intervention plan that consists of additional time and more intensive instruction will be developed and implemented.
