Point Arena Schools Blended Service Model

Presented by Mark, Matt, Paula, Heather, Daniel, Cheryl & Kristi

What Is It?

• The blended service model was created to service all students struggling in any academic area without “labeling” them or letting them fail first.

The blended service model was created to enable classroom teachers and support staff to work in a fluid, fast and collaborative capacity when implementing interventions.

• Team Teaching
• Observations
• Demonstration Lessons
• Small Group Push-In
• Learning Lab: Small Group Pull-Out
• Supporting Benchmarks & Standards

The blended service model was created so teachers can work collaboratively to design appropriate remediation and interventions for those students in need.
