MTSS at Upper Campus
As Data/MTSS Coach at Upper Campus, Tina Catinella builds the capacity of GLOBE teachers to consistently deliver instruction through a Multi-Tiered System of Supports.
“At staff meetings we have looked at how to find reports available for MAP Growth and how to use those reports and the data available to them to create small groups and differentiate,” Ms. Catinella said. “I also led training on formative and summative assessment and had teachers reflect on the data they have from their classroom assessments and how that data can inform their daily instruction.”
That’s not all. Ms. Catinella also does the following:
Meets with grade-level teaching teams bi-weekly to discuss student progress, whether or not interventions are working, and any adjustments that need to be made.
Helps teachers build data literacy and supporting them in data-based decision-making.
Helps teachers master behaviors in GLOBE’s Vision of Teaching Excellence in their Tier I instruction. (Example: A campus-wide training on vocabulary instruction)
“In addition to working with teachers, I am fortunate that I also work closely with students. I co-teach second-period Georgia Studies with Mr. Brantley, and I work with two Response to Intervention groups — one before and one after school,” she said. “These interactions with students allow me a greater perspective in my role and I believe help me be a better coach.
“Coming from Lower Campus, I have loved getting to know Upper Campus and reconnecting with past students. The school spirit is contagious with all the after-school activities/sports and the students truly display CREST in all that they do.”
