ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION: The administration recommends that LocalPolicy EIE be changed to eliminate the District’s MAP program for grades 6-8.



SUBJECT: Revision of Local Policy EIE

DATE: June 14, 2006

Debra Carden, Director of Secondary Education, will present a recommendation that LocalPolicy EIE (Academic Achievement: Retention and Promotion) be changed to eliminate theDistrict’s MAP program from grades 6-8. A copy of the recommended revised policy is attachedfor your review and consideration.

HISTORYThe Midway Academic Program (MAP) was established at the middle school level and at thehigh school level. Students were recommended for MAP when they were entering grade 6, 7 or8 and were overage because of failure of an earlier grade, inappropriate grade placement of thestudent, reentry into school after an extended absence, or other reasons acceptable to the programadministrator.

RATIONALEAfter an evaluation of the MAP program, it has been found to be less effective that otherinte4rventions campuses are currently implementing. Programs such as READ 180, which havebeen implemented in every middle and high school, are providing us with positive student data.Along with READ 180, schools are being proactive by providing students with tutoring sessions,after school and during intersession, to work with students before they fail.
