Intervention programs are offered for students in all grade levels based on need. Students are assessed at the start of the year, in the middle of the year, and at the end of the year. The results of these assessments combined with standardized test scores (when available), classroom work samples and assessments, and teacher observation are used to identify students needing Intervention support. Students in Intervention are assessed regularly and are moved out of Intervention when their performance indicates they no longer need the support. If students do not show adequate growth during their time in intervention, they may be referred for formal assessment.
OCS has a full-time Intervention teacher and Intervention teacher assistants that support students in our Intervention program.
Enrichment programs are embedded throughout every child’s day as described in the grade level curriculum description.
