New York Elementary
Support for
Academic, Behavior and Social Skills
CI3T
New York Elementary along with all the elementary schools in
the Lawrence Public Schools systems has implemented a Comprehensive Integrated
Three–Tier model of prevention that called CI3T. The program is data driven, proactive and will
provide safe and engaging learning environment for students.
CI3T utilizes a positive behavior system where students will
be recognized when they are meeting the expectation outlined on the
Expectations Matrix found on the next page.
The main focus is on our three simple expectations, Be Responsible, Be
Respectful, and Be a Learner. When staff
sees a student demonstrating one of these expectations, a Knights Award ticket
will be given to the student. The ticket
can be placed in containers found in various places throughout the school for
different drawings that will happen through out the day, the week, the month
and each trimester.
Should a student need additional support to be successful we
will provide interventions in the area of need whether it is academic, social,
or in following the expectation matrix.
We will provide more time for the student to learn the skill in a small
group setting or through an individualized learning plan.
Classroom teachers will be using a curriculum called
Positive Actions to teach appropriate social skills. You call look at this program by visiting the
website https://www.positiveaction.net.

There will be information posted on our website, in our
monthly newsletters, special presentations and meetings planned just for the
purpose of sharing this program with you.
If you have questions, please call the school and we will have a staff
member answer your questions.
