  8. SEE HANDOUT Pg. 6 DROPOUT PREVENTION RESEARCH:Supports Assigning Adult Advocates to Students The examples illustrate practices that were noted by previously implemented dropout prevention programs as having had an impact on staying in school, progressing in school, or completing school. DIAGNOSTIC • Utilize data systems that support a realistic diagnosis of the number of students who drop out and that help identify individual students at high risk of dropping out. TARGETED INTERVENTION • *Assign adult advocates to students at risk of dropping out. • Provide academic support and enrichment to improve academic performance. • Implement programs to improve students’ classroom behavior and social skills. SCHOOLWIDE INTERVENTION • Personalize the learning environment and instructional process. • Provide rigorous and relevant instruction to better engage students in learning and provide the skills needed to graduate and to serve them after they leave school. Dynarski, Clarke, Cobb, Finn, Rumberger, and Smink (2008).

It points students and teachers to what they need to accomplish. • Creates incentives that motivate students and teachers to achieve at higher levels.

  22. WASHINGTON’S COMPREHENSIVE GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING FRAMEWORK: Connection to the MGSs/MSAs EMPOWERS Counselor to be a Change Agent Through Advocacy and Collaboration… Dropout Prevention Research, Academic Press, Social Support, Relational Trust Model Research based SNA, MGS/MSA Logs Data Driven All Students MGS/MSA ensure the unique needs of migrant students are being met AND Ethical Decision Making School wide Interventions YES, YES, and YES!! MGS/MSA ensure the unique needs of migrant students are being met MGS/MSA Approach and collaborations with other school and community programs

  23. VISIT www.semy.org RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION APPROACH: How the MGS/MSA Supports RTI Approach MGS/MSA staff must ensure Priority For Service (PFS) students’ needs are met first, before serving other migrant-eligible students.

  24. RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION APPROACH: How the MGS/MSA Supports RTI Approach PRIORITY FOR SERVICE SUMMARY: • Criterion #1: Interrupted school year AND • Criterion #2: Low academic state assessment scores (see handout) When state assessment data is unavailable, proxy risk factors may be applied.

  25. RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION APPROACH: How the MGS/MSA Supports RTI Approach PFS PROXY RISK FACTORS: • Language Proficiency – student’s score on Washington’s English Language Proficiency test is within the limited English proficient levels (1, 2, and 3) • Retained – enrolled in same grade from one school year to next • Grade Age / Over age - age does not match acceptable range for grade level placement with in 2 years • Credit Deficiency (for secondary age students only) – student has not earned sufficient credits per his/her school’s graduation requirements and grade level

  26. WHAT YOU DO -- WHEN PAID BY MIGRANT EDUCATION -- IS IMPORTANT! ESSENTIAL Do’s and Don’ts: MGS, Mario Reyes, Eastmont at work with colleagues and students Supplementing Basic Education and Other Education Programs to Support Migrant Student Academic Achievement • DO Always communicate with your supervisor and federal grants administrator to understand size and scope of your job • DO Build relationships with students, school staff, community and family contacts • DO be sure to ‘stay legal’* • In general, DON’T do for migrant students what other programs are already or could be doing* • DON’T do activities already conducted by basic education for all students* *this is very broad generalization for discussion purposes only. Reference official supplant vs. supplement guidance, and call OSPI Migrant Education, (360) 725-6147 if you have questions.

  27. SEE HANDOUT Supplement vs. Supplant OMB Circular A-133 "In the following instances, it is presumed that supplanting has occurred: • The SEA or LEA used Federal funds to provide services that the SEA or LEA wasrequired to make available under other Federal, State or local laws. • The SEA or LEA used Federal funds to provide services that the SEA or LEA provided with non-Federal funds in the prior year. • The SEA or LEA used Title I, Part A or MEP funds to provide services for participating children that the SEA or LEA provided with non-Federal funds for nonparticipating children. These presumptions are rebuttable if the SEA or LEA can demonstrate that it would not have provided the services in question with non-Federal funds had the Federal funds not been available.” Excerpted from OSPI MEP Webinar (September) - http://www.k12.wa.us/MigrantBilingual/Webinar/2012Sept/MBWebinarMigrant.wmv SEA=State Educational Agency LEA=Local Education Agency

  28. Supplement vs. Supplant Definition of Services “Servicesare distinct in that they are the educational or educationally related activities provided to migrant children to enable them to succeed in school. The criteria for determining whether the activity is a service include: • directly benefits migrant students; • is grounded in scientifically based research; and • will increase the students’ academic skills and thereby increase their ability to meet the State’s performance targets. Remember PFS: In providing services, SEAs must give priority to migrant children who are failing or are most at risk of failing and whose education has been interrupted during the regular school year…” Excerpted from OSPI MEP Allowable Activities handout presented on 09/28/12

  29. Supplement vs. SupplantMGS/MSA Examples of Supplement vs. Supplant Always ask: “What would happen in the absence of MEP funds?”

  30. Local Student Events/Activities Required Documentation Does your school conduct student events or activities? Such as: Guest speakers College visits Student conferences College or career fairs If yes, advocate, intervene, ensure, facilitate and coordinate migrant student access to these activities. This is a major role for an advocate, and particularly if the above support academic achievement.

  31. Local Student Events/Activities Required Documentation If utilizing Migrant Education Program funds for local student events/activities, the Program should demonstrate the following: • Documentation that the identified needs of migrant students have been addressed in accordance with state priorities and activities/events are feasible and do not reduce services to address priority needs. • A description of how the event/activity will be evaluated for its impact on academic achievement of participating students. • Documented plan describing how the student’s experience in event/activity will have an on-going component that builds on school academics and post-secondary goals. • Excerpted from OSPI MEP Webinar (September) • - http://www.k12.wa.us/MigrantBilingual/Webinar/2012Sept/MBWebinarMigrant.wmv

  32. Local Student Event/ActivitiesDocumentation Considerations Tip: Check with your administrator and determine locally developed documentation requirements BEFORE an event or activity.
