On average, students in the group had a GPA of 1.67.

    Yorba Linda Middle School has had an increase of D's & F's
    on progress reports for 6 straight quarters. Yearly needs
    assesment showed a lack of self confidence in ability to
    succeed. Adminstrators wanted school counselors to target
    students who made D & F lists two quarters in a row. The
    Small group targeted ways to improve self confidence in
    students abilites while also teaching study skills,
    organziation, and time management techniques.

    Reflection
    I would say my experience running a small group for the third time
    was excellent. I believe each time it becomes more natural for me
    and it allows me to really connect with the students more instead
    of being nervous about the group. I would also say having the
    privilege of being able to have recognition of how well the
    previous group went and being asked to do this one was amazing.
    I would say being able to understand better the differences
    between achievement data and achievement related data helped
    me to frame my lessons in a way that helps improve both at the
    same time. This allowed me to help students not only achieve
    better grades but learn skills that will be crucial as they jump from
    middle school to high school. I believe for me as well it showed me
    the benefit of finding and using evidence based practices while
    also using previous tools I have used while adjusting the content
    to best fit the set of students I am working with.
