Why FLS Started Project MORE As a district, we were
not meeting AYP for students with special needs
Mrs. Boston, FES principal, attended Title conference and the description of Project MORE caught her attention
![Page 4: Fairfield Local Schools 11611 State Route 771 Leesburg, Ohio 45135 (937) 780-2977](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082817/56649e685503460f94b64e3f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The Beginning We started our program
with 23 students with special needs
Every student that had a reading goal on the IEP was included

Project MORE Now Right now we are serving
53 students with special needs and at risk for reading failure
Those students are seen at least 4 days per week
Our mentor base consists of aides, a board member, grandparents, community members, parents, and high school, middle school, and 6th grade students

How Does It Look? Intervention time is
built into our schedule (40-45 minutes)
Students do Project MORE for 30 minutes, then switch to math intervention with the mentor
Start at 8:30 and run until 3:25

Parent Comments and Stories “I don’t know what you are doing, but it
is working. She is reading better than she ever has and feels successful.” This comment was from Emily’s mom. Emily is a fifth grader with a history of reading struggles to this point. She had shown minimal success in previous interventions including: Title, small group, and resource room assistance.
“Project MORE is making such a difference for my child! Her confidence and abilities are improving.” This comment came from a first grade parent whose child started Project MORE mid year due to not meeting DIBELS benchmarks. Each week, this parent sends us notes of praise and thanks for helping to get her daughter motivated and excited about reading. She is so thankful for the confidence this program creates.

Our Vision for Project MORE at FES Project MORE as an “at home”
program for parents wanting to help with intervention
Summer reading program – Our goal is to serve every student not meeting benchmark. Parents would be given weekly packets to complete, then return to the school the following week for a new lesson packet.
One possibility is to return our Title 1 teacher back to the classroom and service Tier 2 intervention using Project MORE for those not meeting benchmark
