Miami Unified District

There are several ways the LEA will ensure that interventions address the academic impact of lost instructional time and respond to academic, social, emotional, and mental health needs of all students (including low-income students, students with disabilities, EL, migrant, homeless, and foster care students).. All schools within our District are Title I schools and therefore serve the students that were disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

To meet the academic needs of our students, the Miami Unified School District will:
-Provide additional instructional assistance to work with students in K-3 grades to pull small groups, model instruction for students, and provide support so students can access the curriculum being taught by the teacher.
-Purchase supplies/materials so students have access to resources necessary to achieve at high levels

The LEA will also provide support and interventions for students regarding social emotional learning including:
-Salary/benefits for a Social Emotional Learning Specialist to work with schools on helping students and families find resources and small group instruction to deal with emotional trauma and mental health.
