  41. Attendance Intervention • The implementation of this application is based on board rule. • Students with 5 unexcused/unresolved absences in a semester course or 10 unexcused/unresolved absences in an annual course will have their academic grade withheld. • The Intervention application allows the attendance review committee to determine the appropriate intervention for a student and then to resolve the absences so that the academic grade can be given. • Additional comments can be added at the bottom of the application to reflect any special issues that were addressed at the meeting. • Through the application the attendance review committee will print a letter for signature by the parent and student. The letter will also print in Spanish or Haitian-Creole if the home language is one of these languages. • The student and parent also are receive a message in their alert box on their individual portals. When they click on the alert they are taken to a summary page showing the attendance intervention.

  42. SPOTsuccess • This application was created in response to a need that the Superintendent saw to recognize students for doing positive things in school. The SPOTsuccess application allows staff at schools to recognize students that has taken positive action. • School personnel can recognize any student in their school by going into the portal and selecting SPOTsuccess. There are nine core values to select from. Within each core value a subgroup must be selected. The number of subgroups varies between core values. • The principal approves the recognition on the principal approval screen. • Once approved the student and parent are notified in an alert box on their individual portals. They can then click on the alert and se the congratulatory letter. • In addition the principal has the options of printing a congratulation letter, an award certificate, and emailing the parent. They can all print SPOTsuccess stickers to hand out to the students. • Letters are printed in English and a second language based on the home language.

  43.

The tutoring is offered by state approved private providers in: • Reading • Language Arts • Mathematics before and after school or Saturdays

  44. Internship • Businesses apply for portal account and role, submit internship proposals, select/decline interns and submit mid-term and final evaluations of student interns. • District Community Services staff approve/disapprove business’ requests as internship providers. • Students apply for internship opportunities available to them that are automatically posted to their portal. • School site Internship Coordinators approve student requests and queue up to ten students for interview with a business and provide business information to approved students. • All functions are real-time in the portal and audiences receive email notification in addition to portal screen information for all actions and events related to an internship opportunity.

  45.
