Support Systems

Intervention Program

The Intervention Program is designed to promote academic success through best-practice interventions in reading and mathematics for learners who require more intensive support in addition to those provided in the general classroom.

In Libertyville District 70 we believe...

  • ongoing, universal, regular assessment of all students drives instructional practices and interventions.
  • early intervention, rather than a "wait-to-fail" model, best supports struggling learners.
  • pull-out interventions should supplement, not supplant, high-quality classroom instruction.
  • early intervention for at risk first graders should be implemented as early as possible.
  • intervention group sizes decrease along a continuum of support for struggling learners.
  • best practice indicates that struggling learners benefit most from daily interventions.
