OPUSD adopted the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project as our core literacy program in 2018. This balanced literacy approach allows students to develop a love of reading and writing through an individualized approach. Our teachers undergo ongoing professional development throughout the school year in order to integrate the most up-to-date, researched-based instructional practices.

Academic Intervention & Supports
Academic Intervention & Supports
Multi-tiered System of Supports (MTSS) is a progression of targeted interventions to ensure all students excel behaviorally, academically, and social-emotionally. OPUSD uses Illuminate Education's Fastbridge platform to universally screen students in grades K-8 three times a year in Math and Reading. A team of educators and paraprofessionals review the screening data, along with classroom data, to identify students needing additional math and/or reading support. Our Interventionists provide evidence-based interventions in 6-8 week cycles. Student progress is monitored throughout the intervention periods and students are re-screened during the next screening window.
