Collaborative Center
for Literacy Development
(CCLD)
Their research for the RTA program depends on
accurate attendance reports
and program evaluation reports.
Key Finding
Last year14,570 students were served in
RTA for an average of 59.5 days.
Recommendation
The Kentucky General Assembly should
continue to fund RTA and expand funding
to include more elementary schools.
Program Evaluation
January 15
A worksheet will me sent to everyone in early
January and the link to Survey Monkey will be
available on January 8.
The intervention tab in
Infinite Campus should be
completed for every RTA
student.
Key Finding
The number of years in RTA is negatively
rd
th
associated with achievement in 3 , 4 , and
th
5 grades.
Recommendation
Provide different intensive intervention for
students early if insufficient progress is
made.
Key Finding
Teachers do not have clear processes for
exiting students.
Recommendation
Schools should establish well defined
processes and criteria for exiting students
from RTA.
Key Finding
Schools with the most effective systems
for interventions had strong literacy teams
with high involvement from the RTA
teacher.
Recommendation
Schools should form inclusive
literacy/RTA teams that support literacy.
Key Finding
RTA teachers have higher levels of training
than interventionists in schools without
RTA funding.
Recommendation
RTA funds should be used to develop and
support RTA teachers related to literacy
leadership.
Key Finding
Systematic multi-tiered support for students
was not always evident in schools.
Recommendation
Schools should establish strong multi-tiered
systems of intervention and use RTA as a
support within those multi-tiered systems.
Key Finding
Students who received RTA interventions in
kindergarten or first grades were more likely to
reach the proficient level on K-PREP than student
who participated in RTA in second or third grades.
Recommendation
Schools should focus resources on providing
interventions for all students who demonstrate a
need in kindergarten and first grade.
