Hey there! 🌅
The Portal makes it easy to identify students in your school who are struggling academically and in need of an academic support. In the Academic List, Formative Assessment List, and Screeners List users can focus on a specific group of students and hone in on key metrics such as failing marking period scores by subject, growth scores on screeners, and much more. In each list view, you can group students in various ways. One grouping option is by the Support. Grouping by Support allows you to identify students in your school who are struggling academically with no academic support. A support is an ongoing, regular activity that is aimed at improving students’ outcomes.
Assigning students struggling academically to an academic support allows you to see which supports are being offered at your school, details about who the support is serving, who is leading the support, and where and when the support is occurring. This allows you to monitor the progress of students assigned to an academic support to better understand students’ support needs.
