Overview • The Curriculum Frameworks for Learning and Employment was first
implemented in June of 2008. This framework was chosen based on current research of the diagnostic intervention model. The process is driven by individual student need as determined by ongoing performance on efficient and easily administered progress-monitoring measures. These measures provide an estimate of students’ response to effective instruction. For students who respond less than adequately, increasingly intense instruction/intervention is available within this model.

Rationale• The process allows educators to improvement in meeting
the needs of all students, including the gifted and talented.
• The process enables educators, parents and students to work as a team to solve difficult academic issues.
• The process assists the team in meeting the over-arching goal of successful transitions.
• “The systematic assessment of student learning outcomes is essential to monitoring quality and providing the information that leads to improvement.” -Middle States Standard XIV
• Curriculum Frameworks
Intake • Transition planning begins on first day.• ED requests records, reviews records/IEP and
assessments, identifies instructional needs and goals, and presents information during EPT meeting (5 days)
• ED completes credit recovery form/transcript and student questionnaire (5 days)
• Administer pre-test –BASI (3 days)• Educators administer secondary testing and curriculum-
based measures –GATES/SAXON (10 days)• Student immediately placed into programming
Placement in Class• BASI outcomes verified by secondary tests (10 days)• Educators develop objectives/benchmarks so students are
able to reach goals set by ED (10 days)• EPT Team meets weekly to review data, prioritize student
needs and adjust instruction/interventions• All team members provide evidence of student
growth/progress• ED/Principal chairs the meeting• ED/EPT Team discusses plan with student
Instruction• Educators provide standards-based instruction with
scaffolds as needed. Units developed via Learning-Focused planning process.
• Educators/ED’s provide necessary interventions• Educators integrate writing and literacy instruction across
all content areas• On-going formative and summative assessments are
conducted• Scaffold Ideas: http://www.netc.org/focus/strategies/
Progress-Monitoring• All members collect evidence of student progress and
review during EPT meeting. Every student should be reviewed monthly.
• EPT members continue to meet weekly and make necessary modifications to student’s education plan.
• ED/EPT Team continues to discuss education plan with students.
• Adjust instruction/interventions to meet needs of the student. (Introduce tier II or tier III interventions if student is not progressing) Sample EPT
Employability Skills• ED’s/Educators will assist students in completing Student
Success Plans• Work experiences and job search training are provided to
students who are not returning to school.• ED”s/Educators assist students in completing portfolios
(30 days)• ED’s complete necessary DVR referrals
Transition• Transition Coordinator, ED, Guidance Counselors complete
the transition process with students. (scheduling and conducting meetings, updating transcripts, preparing student for meetings, etc.)
• ED administers the BASI posttest and documents progress• ED provides receiving school/organization with appropriate
records necessary for a successful transition
Consistent Use of these Practices Leads to:
