We need to provide an overview page which contains a current snapshot of how the student is performing and also includes tabs to view Intervention Plans, STAR Early Literacy, Star ELA, Star Math, Behavior SEL, and Attendance.
Note: See this document on How to Deal with Missing Renaissance Benchmarks (also called Category Ratings) in Product. It covers questions of how specific areas of the product should handle the missing data, which is missing for students in kindergarten and in grades 4 and up for the Star Early Literacy assessment. It also states that for older students who took both the Star Early Literacy and the Star Reading assessment, we would be showing results for the Star Reading assessment only as one way to mitigate the issue of missing benchmarks.
Overview
User Story:
As a teacher viewing the Student MTSS Dashboard, I need to see the overall picture of a specific student’s background information including the Student Details, Academic Needs and Other Details so that I can quickly “get to know” the student before responding to the needs in each of the categories (ELA, Math, SEL, Behavior, Attendance).
UI:
To access the Student MTSS Dashboard, users click on (TBD location).
To view an existing Intervention plan, user clicks on Intervention plan button.
User sees Tier recommendations in chart below graphs.
Acceptance Criteria:
Given a student has taken a specific test multiple times with the ScreeningWindowStartDate and ScreeningWindowEndDate, we will use the most recent testing data for that student.
Students will only have one set of data per test and testing window.
Given the client is a Legacy customer without access to MTSS Interventions, then they will see the old view of the student dashboard.
SEL Differences
For users who have MTSS (all tools) and SEL, we will show the heading SEL.
For users who have MTSS (all tools) and Wellness we will show the heading Wellness in place of SEL
For users who have MTSS (all tools) and Life Skills and Wellness we will show the heading Life Skills and Wellness in place of SEL
Whichever version is selected will populate throughout the MTSS Dashboard.
See connections for mapping:
Graphs
The graphs (ELA: 4th Grade, Math: 4th Grade, Behavior: 4th Grade, SEL: 4th Grade. Attendance: 4th Grade) are pre-filtered to contain all students enrolled in 4th grade for the selected school.
The Incidents graph will show Tier 1 %, Tier 2 %, and Tier 3 %
The “Not Available” section will not show on the Incidents graph
Settings for Tier 1 begin at zero (0) and by default a student without incidents is Tier 1
The Absences and Tardies graphs will show Tier 1 %, Tier 2 %, and Tier 3 %
The “Not Available” section will not show on the Absences and Tardies graphs
Settings for Tier 1 begin at zero percent (0%) and by default a student without absences or tardies is Tier 1
Tier Notices
See image: Emphasized Graphs. Look for Behavior Incidents Tier Notices at top left of page.
We will show up to 6 Tier Notices on the page. The possibilities for Tier notices include:
Tier 2 for ELA, Math, Behavior, SEL, Absences, Tardies
Tier 3 for ELA, Math, Behavior, SEL, Absences, Tardies
For more information about Tier Notices see: ELA, Math, Behavior, SEL, Attendance.
Given there is a Tier notice, we will show that same color (Red for Tier 3 and yellow for Tier 2 in the chart below. (See image: Emphasized Graphs. Look for Behavior incidents row in red.)
Given there is more than one Tier notice, we will show pagination for the tier notice that includes the number of tier notices
Example: 1 of 6.
To view additional Tier Notices, the user clicks on the right/left arrow.
Given there is more than 1 Tier Notice, we will show them as the most recent first to the least recent.
Tier Buttons
Given there is a Tier Intervention plan in place (Pre-Planning, In Progress, Archived, Mastered) for ELA, Math, Behavior, SEL then we will show the specified Tier Button. (See image: Intervention Plan Button)
Given user selects the Tier Plan button, then we will show the Intervention Plan with the tab opened to the specific content area. (See example: Math)
Given a student has both an intervention plan that is In-Progress and also an intervention plan that is in Pre-Planning, then we will show the Intervention Plan that is In-Progress. (See image: Emphasized Graphs. Look for Star Math showing a Tier 2 In-Progress Tier Button. )
There are no tier intervention buttons for Attendance(Absences and Tardies) since we do not have an intervention plan for Attendance.

8 Tier Button variations include:
T2 and T3 Plan-Pre Planning
T2 Plan and T3 Plan In -Progress
T2 Plan T3 Plan -Archived
T2 Plan and T3 Plan- Mastered
A plan that has the status of In Progress will be the priority to show to the user
Given the there is a Plan in Pre-Planning and a Plan In Progress for the student, we will show the In-Progress Plan button for the specified tier level.
Given a student has the same intervention plan in the same status (Pre Planning, In Progress, Mastered, Archived) that extends into another testing window, then we show the same button twice-once in the previous testing season and once in the current testing season.
Given the user changes the status of the plan within the current testing season, we will update the button to reflect the change thus showing only one button with the most current updated status.
Given there is no intervention plan in place when an assessment is integrated and a user creates an intervention plan before the next assessment is integrated, the plan created will show in the Plan column even if it was after the dates.
The intervention plan will show in two rows if no other intervention plan is created when the next assessment is integrated.
The appearance and updates of the Intervention Plan Tier Buttons follows the dates included in the intervention plan and the dates in the Define School Year settings.
We only show one Intervention Plan Tier Button
If there is an update to the intervention plan, the intervention plan button is updated (T2 Pre-planning can be replaced with T2 In-Progress) for changes made during the specific date ranges.
Given the date range/time period has passed, then the button in shown in it’s final variation for that time period.
Only one Intervention Plan Tier button will be shown at a time for each given subject area.
Given there are multiple plans in different statuses, the most recent Intervention Plan will be shown according to the date.
If there is an Archived plan and a user begins a new plan that is in Pre-Planning, the Pre-Planning Intervention Plan will be shown instead on the table.
If there is an In-Progress Plan, this plan will be shown by default.
Empty State
User Story
