Newell Elementary has taken on the first year of Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) this year coupling that with a new system of assessing students in the beginning, middle, and end of the school year. Utilizing the data from the assessment process allows us to individualize needed interventions to students.
We now see the benefits of the teachers' and paraprofessionals' hard work.
