What are we doing at FMS to close achievement gaps? 

We are ALL using Imagine Math, Read Theory, and grades 5-6 are using Elevate. Grades 7-8 will use Elevate only if they are Tier 3. This should help all of our students close gaps. Every student gets 25 minutes per week in every classroom to work on an assigned program. Reading and history teachers use Read Theory/Elevate while math and science teachers use Imagine Math. All other teachers have been assigned which one they are to use. We removed all study halls/library aides and called them intervention classes. It is here that students must work in Imagine Math. As a schoolwide plan, we require students to pass 4 Imagine Math lessons and 4 Read Theory lessons each week at or above their pretest level. These are counted as a weekly completion grade for passing them at or above their pretest level.
