911! What’s Your Emergency?

Rhonda Butler • Cahn Fellow 2022

After the pandemic, student achievement and social-emotional wellness was at an all time low. Our school was on life support, and we were in triage mode! We realized in order to survive, we had to come out of triage mode and put together a long range strategic plan if a cure was ever going to be achieved. After examining the data, the only thing that could resuscitate our school was a continuous healthy dose of MTSS. With tailored support that caters to each student, Robert A. Black Magnet embodied a new way of learning that pushes students to their greatest potential.
