Douglas Unified District

Summer school, after-school programs, and extended day programs will be designed as a comprehensive program to meet all student academic, social-emotional, and mental health needs which will incorporate evidence-based practices during the implementation, such as differentiation, inquiry-based learning, cooperative learning, and behavior management. Some of the evidence-based curriculum that will be utilized in all programs include Scholastic Scholar Zone for the summer program, 95% Group, SuccessMaker, I-Lit ELDCompanion, TMLC Thinking Maps, Great Minds and ExactPath (math), ELA My Perspectives, Edmentum Courseware for credit recovery, and PD to support teachers with implementation. Collaboration with teachers and counselors will ensure student needs are met. The use of DUSD assessment data will drive interventions and target at-risk groups- low-income students, students with disabilities, English learners, migrant students, students experiencing homelessness, and children in foster care. The budgeted allocation will cover the total cost of the programs for approximately three school years.
