| Περίληψη: | In the 2020/21 and 2021/22 school years, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands Public School System (CNMI PSS) piloted an early warning system (EWS) in all nine of its elementary schools using a two-cohort model. The CNMI PSS designed the EWS in partnership with the Regional Educational Laboratory Pacific to help educators improve data-driven decision-making around reading instruction and assignment of Tier 2 interventions, which provide intensive academic support for students at risk of not meeting reading benchmarks. This study examined quantitative survey data and qualitative interview data on implementation of the EWS during the 2023/24 school year. Findings indicate that elementary schools across both cohorts generally followed the seven EWS steps and reported using both EWS and non-EWS data and processes in determining Tier 2 interventions. However, potential challenges, such as perceived misalignment between curriculum and assessments, coupled with the large amount of data to analyze, might have prevented schools from fully implementing the EWS to support Tier 2 interventions. |
