Session 869: The presenter will describe the methods and instrumentation employed by New Hampshire’s SPDG Leadership Team and evaluators to capture the extent to which the intervention is being implemented with a high degree of fidelity. The primary outcome of the New Hampshire RESPONDS initiative is a multi-tiered, braided literacy, and behavior supports program that will result in improved student outcomes within five demonstration school districts across NH. The intent is for the demonstration schools to have a highly developed integrated 3-tier system of literacy and behavior support at the end of the grant period that is aligned to school improvement efforts and supported by district leadership activities. Dr. Mueller is President of Evergreen Evaluation & Consulting, specializing in evaluation of federally-funded, special education initiatives.#DisabilitiesandOtherVulnerablePopulations #2010Conference #Prek-12EducationalEvaluation
